I have a 2000 S type 4.0 with 108,000kms....runs great. These cars get a bad rap, and i think because they need alittle more care than your average german, or japanese counterpart. I would sugggest the purchase at the dealer and have the history with it.
The tranny issues i think come from this pause these cars do before they get into gear.....when you test drive one, im sure you will feel it doesnt go into gear right away, wait for it to go into gear, and move out slow. Wife and i use it as our daily (her car) and just did a service. Now, if you want some hp...go for the STR...my 2007 STR is a different animal....look at a few and drive a few and chech past records, you will love the ride...i know we do
