I had several issues with my 02 S, when I purchased it in April of this year. Most were from the previous owner not maintaining the car the way it should have been. I had to replace the rear axles because the rubber boots covering the CV joints were not coated with silicone on a regular basis. A new top, due anyway since it was five years old and new tires.
But it's all worth it. The car runs great and is a joy to drive. It fits my definition of a sports car. You're smiling when you walk up to it; you're smiling when you're driving it; and you're smiling when you're walking away from it and turn to take that one last look. Happy Driving.
