Really, the biggest complaint I have about this car is the mod disease I seem to have caught about a month after delivery.
Yup, it's a goin round and it's a bad one this time!

strut issues are bugging me.. and the crappy paint job.. but performance wise - satisfied
i told my a local dealer to order the strut fix and he got it in 2 days. They installed it in less then a day and all is better, heck they did a new gas tank in the same day too

I explode every morning, when I start mine up! This car is all new and light years different! I'm really glad I waited for the 05.
Happy Trails!!!

After having it for 3 months, every time I start it up and back it out of the garage, I feel the same way I did the day I picked it up at the dealer. I knew going into this being a first year model, that there would be problems. And yes, I have the shaker, heat control, popping in the front end problems. I figure they are all under warranty and will be fixed. The only problem I have is leaving it at the dealers and hoping it comes back with no scratches or extra miles!!!

Love it love it love it...

Rae's knees have arthritis, she has issues drinking, (REALLY BAD) she cant seem to get the tunes straight, (EVERY CD skips) and 90% of her coat is orange peel.

Wouldnt trade her in for anything.. ok, well, maybe not ANYTHING.. but I am EXTREMELY happy with her.

Heck, I cant stand to be without her EVER.. if we have to take the "family car" (after Emilee's accident, NO ONE rides in the back seat) I am seriously grumpy!

I'm so happy! The big smile this car gives me puts the actor in those Enzyte commercials to shame.

My struts pop and my shaker acts up occaisionally, the struts (new tsb parts) are on order now. I've had very rarely fueling problems that are easily remidied by turning the nozzle upside down. I love the car more and more as I get more used to it. I still look at it in disbelief that I could own such an awesome vehicle.

I'm born again kid every time I sit behind the wheel!

I had only one manufacture problem that was a paint bubble on the end of the hood, Fixed , other than that not a thing and its almost been one month now, my son has admitted to me that every time I well get a fast take off without spinning that he gets a woody oh great now I'll have to add salt peter to his diet ? kidding. I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF DRIVING IT

Happy as can be

As far as all the issue's, just remember that it doesn't mean your car has them all.. so far all I got is the strut thing.....but I can't part with it yet, I just can't do it.
