I think it depends on what has been done based on time, not mileage, on this car.

I bought my '02 S with 68k 3 years ago. Prior to my ownership (in the prior 4 years/9k miles), it had the front motor mount, alternator, 60k service, left half shaft, driver's window regulator, and a couple of other things like new tires.

When I purchased it, the RMS was leaking, the water pump was leaking, it was due for a coolant flush, and was wearing the front tires unevenly.

I had the LN single row pro installed along with a new RMS, clutch, dual mass flywheel, AOS, and the Gbox 2nd gear popout prevention kit. I also had a very well known shop perform a suspension refresh, replacing any worn parts (both front track arms, LR track arm and control arm, etc) along with new Bilsteins and strut hardware.

I've since had the LF wheel bearing replaced, cleaned the front radiators, installed new tires, flushed the brake fluid, and had the plug tubes replaced.

Car drives very well now and--more important for me--is reliable.
