i can only speak from my own experience though general consensus on here seems to be that they are fairly reliable my enthusiast is on k miles only significant issues so far the original manual tranny was replaced under warranty around k miles and an abs computer had to be replaced around k had to replace a cam position sensor last year but it was a simple diy and cost about and a half hour of my time ive been very good about maintenance still runs great if i recall correctly the s with the revup engine may have a bit of an oil consumption issue but not a concern if you top if off consistently see the two sidebar links for a much more detailed rundown of the model year specifics and what to look out for
