Bought used about 7 years ago. Car was in Hawaii for 4 or 5 years. Now I'm getting rust in a number of places.
Problems? Best I can recall without doing research:
Air Mass Meter failed. Replaced with used one from Ebay. Inexpensive.
Running problems. Finally took to shop. Cleaned all contacts and grounds in engine compartment. 2-3 hours labor
Leakage from sun roof. Shop spent a couple hours tracking down leak (I couldn't pinpoint it).
CV boots split.
Tie rods wore out.
Anything else was minor.
Had about 85,000 on it when I bought it.
Has a50,000+ now.
I'd run mine daily, though we have 3 cars for 2 drivers. I probably wouldn't buy one to use as a daily commuter.
