    you have to realize that these cars are 10+ years old. they break because they are nearing the end of their lives on pretty much all parts on the car. stuff doesnt last forever.

    besides, nickle and dime-ing you to death is better than a $15k car. its way cheaper.

    nickle & dime-ing is cheaper?

    $1990 Rebuilt Tranny
    $800 motor
    $276 MAF
    $400 in struts at least
    $12 S/C oil
    $8 everytime i need a S/C gasket
    $50 per O2 sensor
    $15 radiator hoses
    $30 motor mount
    $40 tranny mount
    $30 tranny lines
    $20 for new spark plugs every 5-6k
    $70 front brake pads
    $100+ everytime the HUD that nvr works ****s up
    $105 each taillight

    Sure some of that can be considered maintenance but the point is for the price of nicke & dime-ing you could've had yourself that 15K car...
