The only way these cars are affordable is like everyone has said, do the work yourself. Dealer labor will set you back $150 an hour or more, and Indy service is $90 and up. Most common repairs are water pump, AOS, thermostat, CV shaft boots. Wheel bearings and struts and suspension links. All are aftermarket supplied for at least 50% less than OEM.
Dealer water pump replacement start at $600. Parts are $130-$180 aftermarket.
The bottom line is this is one of the most affordable, fun to drive car out there today. Handling is ++. power in the S is good and base is acceptable.
