Get into Texas and elsewhere south of I-20, and sun damage can be brutal. Think about the excess heat and the way the plastic bits under the hood (and in the interior) are degrading after 20 years. Might be safer to get a post '05 9-5, to get away from these Valeo climate control assemblies that in many instances are shot. Just got a low mileage, garage kept '05 Arc (Chattanooga area) and still somehow, the dash panel is delaminating and broken.
Wondering when we will start seeing "composite" cars with the structure/sheet metal from south of the Mason Dixon, with interiors salvaged from New Hampshire cars.
Oh. One more thing. Available, worth owning cars from the South have always been fewer in number, and this is more and more true each week. Good luck!
