I bought mine new in 2003. The most 'serious' issues I've had were leaky RMS seals replaced twice under warranty ( last was the upgraded 2005 seal which has been bone dry since) - they also replaced the flywheel at the same time for some reason. Dealer also replaced a worn steering tie rod (worn bushing)- all under warranty without any issues.

I've had a few other minor fixes out of warranty that I paid for; split axle bellow, front engine mount, MAF and engine temp sensors, but that's about it other than maintenance stuff; one set off front pads and rotors, fluid & filter changes, etc. Car's been pretty reliable with 65K to date.
