"Worth the purchase"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Many blown bulbs. One fog light, one tail light, one brake light (that randomly stops working), and three dash lights.

General wear for an older car, but still in excellent shape.

General comments?

Very pleased with this car. I got it for a great price, and I've yet to have any large scale mechanical faults.

Excellent performance. Great handling.

Reverse takes a moment to kick in, which is odd for an automatic.

Interior is very well laid out, minus the lack of cup holders.

The heated seats are a plus, especially for the winter driving.

When talking about your reverse taking a moment. Check and see if your transmission is not slipping. Also if not that see if it couldn't be a fuel/timing problem.

That's so true. I got one tail light, one high beam, one fog light, one reverse light, and one license plate light burnt out.
