i can't afford to be paying $2000 maintenance fees every few months.

how long do you think the car will last before it completely dies? it only has 60k miles but it is over a decade old.
If you are going to drive it hot for 2 months, then yes, you can expect catastrophic things to happen.

My '99 Box has 75k on it now and came with full maintenance records. The most expensive "repairs" were the serpentine belt and tires. If properly maintained, upkeep can be reasonable, from what I've seen.
