Both front power window regulators broke in 2001. Total $200 Fixed self.

Oil consumption started around 150,000-at 1 qrt every 750-miles-constant-not getting worse. $1.50 a quart.

EGR valve ports clogged up with carbon at 200,000-miles. Cleaned out self-took 3-hours.

Total avg at 24.5mpg.

Super bright headlights.

Great car.

Top of front doors pointed and sharp if they hit someone in the face while getting in or out of car. Cure=full padded roof.

Trunk is too big to use. Stuff slides down in deep well and I have to get into trunk to reach.

Car always starts and has never even had to have an alignment. Solid front end and rear end.

Body stlye getting outdated.
