Depends on how much abuse the car has seen. Generally they've been reliable
to most ppl that I know... mine has been reliable USUALLY.. but it has
caused me some grief (but the car you're looking at is also 4 years newer
than mine..). I'd say check it out extremely thoroughly... see how the
previous owner drove it (older person driving will generally take it easy on
it compared to a 16 year old).. and if you really want the car & the price
is right.. snag it!
