Worth knowing
- 2010: owner complaints spike (110, mostly the steering).
- 2011: owner complaints spike (40, mostly the steering).
- The cabin is dated and loud on the highway. Many were modified, so favor stock cars with records.
- Budget for higher running costs: summer performance tires cost about $700 to $1,200 a set and wear quickly, and brakes cost more than on a regular car.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for the Sport trim: it adds a limited-slip differential, 19-inch wheels and rev-matching on manuals over the base model.
On the test drive
Check for clutch slave cylinder leaks and worn synchros on manual cars. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.
