My '03 Aero wagon has been great

I'm a big fan of the pre-'06 styling....although I prefer the '04/'05 Aero styling and wish my Cosmic Blue wagon had it. I've had my wagon since new, and the only issues were an alternator bearing that went (new alternator under warranty) and a leaky condenser (replaced under warranty). I bought an extended warranty for mine that runs out this coming November, and my dealer was more than willing to do some preventative maintenance (new motor mounts and tranny mounts recently) because of the warranty. It actually paid for itself.
My car is virtually rattle free (the odd creak now and again, but only over the worst bumps), spent 3 years in New England winters with 4 snow tires and was like a mountain goat in the snow. Now it's in LA, enjoying crappy roads, but no more salt.
My car has the vented seats, and if you can find one with it, I highly recommend it!!
A great car....and in my opinion, better built than the new 9-3's.
Cheers,
Paul H.
