Main well-known issue is the harmonic balancer breaking apart.

Probably one of the good models to own, as there are not an incredible list of common problems with the vehicle. Maintenance costs depend on a lot of variables, such as do you take your cars to a reputable independant or the dealer? Dealers generate lot of their revenue off of service, so they are not always the cheapest route to go along.

Make sure it has records, and has been maintained and cared for.
