Keep in mind that about a week after you get the '01, you will have torn the motor mount, the coolant overflow will have cracked and started leaking, and the AOS will implode.

Know what I do now, I think the best option is to buy something with a blown engine, and get it Raby-fied. Will probably cost you 4-5k more up front, but you'll have way more power and can sleep knowing you won't be seeing IMS or D-chunk failures.
