I’ve owned this car since May 2023, purchased in Arizona with 133k miles, since it is from the desert there is nearly no rust on the car. It’s a very good car with no major issues, have made many roadtrips without any mechanical issues.
It is a 22 year old car so some issues and wear are expected. Rear driver side window does not roll down, inside passenger side grab handle is broken off (still have handle), it vibrates a little at idle due to old motor mounts, the valve cover is leaking slightly but it’s not leaving puddles or drops.
This car will easily make it past 200k miles if taken care of properly. Would love to see this car spend its last years up in Alaska!
