Love the drive, hate the mechanical issues.
I bought the car with 105k miles 5 years ago. So keep in mind this was not a new model! I paid $3900 for the car from a second tier car lot. Right off they told me to have the timing belt changed. Wow, $500 out of pocket. 3 months later, a front right axle, then a sensor, tires,(ok) , then the brake issues, finally my mechanical suggests ceramic with a warranty. Good thing- in the next 60k miles-3 brake jobs, no cost.
Then the transmission lines disentigrated, along with rear brake lines. At 160k, the heads started leaking- $1200- for R&R. And on and on- alternator(180k)- blew a plug out of cylinder 4((190k)---in all bought another car$4500 in repairs in 90k miles. Like I said, love the drive- hate the bills!
