Thread: Best Year to Buy for the Wife

You probably don't have this problem much in Oregon, but the earlier cars had problems with the rear strut towers rusting out. It was either 2000 or 2001 that this problem was fixed.

Also, the 2001+ cars have more durable steering wheel radio controls.

If it's just a daily driver, I'd recommend an 01+.

Yea it will be the wife's daily.
And yea I rarely see rust on any car here unless its from out of state or spent it's life on the coast.

Sounds like I'm keeping my search to 01-04 GT/GTP

Thanks everyone for the advice
