Just for fun, I think my 2002 wagon was on the other side of the $ hump. Bought it for $1400 with 320Kmi, 2 years ago or so, have driven it 30KMI, failures have been shifter, water pump, and 2 ebay coil packs, not too bad.

The car looks great inside and out, much better than the mileage would indicate. I do think the engine is getting tired, CEL is on, misfire after replacing plugs, and the passages are plugged. Have had no luck keeping the misfire away.
