No mechanical issues on either my '05 which I ran to 22K or my 06 which is at 15k.
If you look at the open TSBs on the 05, they're all niggling, what few there are, and can be taken care of with a day at the dealer if they haven't already.
The engine noise @2100 rpms is/was present on both my cars. I haven't addressed it yet as A) I consider it a characteristic not a defect B) It doesn't bother me.
I'd definitely recommend an '05 purchase. Might facilitate the purchase of an "S" or the options you want. If you get an '05 have them replace the wind deflector mounting points which are available as a "boxed set", lest the rattling drive you insane.
