Year: 1997
Mileage: 20,000 (tripped 20K yesterday)
Problems: Slight RMS leak, bad radiator cap replaced by dealer for free after $380.00 tow and new ignition switch installed. FIxed airbag light with contact cleaner and compressed air blowout. (dealer reset light for free)
Bought car in November of 2005 with 9,700 miles on the ODO. It is an every day driver and all original. It has 17" wheels and sport suspension as options. I drive the car to and from airport to the tune of about 80 miles per week. It's been very reliable and so far no coolant tank leak, top cables OK, just new tires. Lot's of folks think it's brand new - love the car!

Age: 1998
Miles: 99,000 kms = 60,000 miles
Bought in may 2003, at 64,000kms
Major problems:
- Engine replaced (long before I got it)
- 4 new shocks (last about 100,000kms
- MAF sensor
- cables for roof mechanism
- Coolant reservoir cracked
- LED in instrument cluster
- Roof mechanism switch
- New front bumper after find an imprint of a tow ball through the license plate into the bumper itself.
It's a love/hate relationship now. Repairs are very damm expensive, but drives like a new car with those new shocks, which makes me love her all the more
