here is a list of stuff I replaced at 70k
tranny $5000

motor mounts $300
fuel pump $500
control arms front and back $1500
cracked dash
brakes twice $1600bullet proof even with my supercharger.
Cd changer
window reg
plugs $400
The list goes on and on, but I can't remember it is a great car but you have to remember it is not a Honda or Toyota. The car takes love and a lots of $$$$ to keep it running. I saved a lot of money because I was able to do much of the work my self. As far as the motor its bullet proof.
