Is it possible to drive a car that I like?

Yeah, just as reliable.

Are the parts a lot more expensive or are they abou the same as 97-03?

So which model year of the last gen is known to be particularily good? 2004s are pretty cheap around my local area but I just assume they have more issues than an 06.

04 and 05 have different sway/lca setup from every other wbody. can be swapped to 97-03/06-08 setup for aftermarket parts. all 04's and half the 05's have the same crappy lim gasket that 97-03's have. All 06+ have aluminum. Parts cost about the same. If you want something you never have to touch when you get it, go for an 06.

Been looking around here on CL... looks like some CL haunting +$6k will get you a CompG.

I might look at financing one from GM Optimum Used. They have low clicks and come with some warranty.

GM Optimum 2006 GP GT
Fully loaded, 75000km
$10,800

Might be worthwhile if it was <30,000 miles. Definitely not worth $11k for 75k.
