 I bought it new in 1997. Still have it. other than tires, batterys and maintenance only made two repairs...new starter 5 years in, and new top 8 years in. I have had to glue the side trim back on with boat glue from home depot..dealer wanted $300 for that repair.  Also, have glue on many places on the body..back cup holder, side trim inside by door, radio buttons.  All electronics still work, engine still reliable, AC died at 10 years/100,000. Pretty good car though.
