look forward to blown control arm bushings and ball joints on a regular basis. Manifests itself as kickback through the steering wheel when it's due. About 60K on the average.
Window regulators blow out about the same time as the tires wear out, there's also some who claim rear subframe mounts will tear out of the floorpan. $$$ to fix..
Radiator will spring a leak sometime before 80K, but it's cheap to replace.
Sport package will get you springs from the coupe about 40MM lower, and auto trans is a 5 speed model (?) just make sure that the fluid is changed between 60-80K - @ $400 a fill.
Sport on 18" is the only way to go!
If the car has had 15K oil changes (free factory service) check the inside of the valve cover for sludge. Cases are popping up where sludge is an issue even before the factory warranty is up - simply are running too long between oil changes.
Oh,and the later ones have the LED taillights and xenon, so saves money on burned bulbs! Also, ZHP is available after 2003(??)
