AAA with 100 mile towing range is a plus.

I have 94,000 miles on mine, DD 50 miles round trip and love driving it.

Picked it up Jan 2012 with 75,000 miles on it on the time.

Only issue so far was the upper motor mount (easy fix), brake pads, tires, and the Harmonic Pulley that split at 93,000 miles. I went ahead and changed the idler pulley, belt and tensioner while I was in there and added a tensioner stop.

Next project is the lower control arm bushings and the airbag light, passenger seat sensor needs to be replaced again, $800 part and was replaced twice earlier under warranty. Good thing it will still pass safety inspection.

Just hoping the supercharger and powersteering pump will not crap out.
