Gotta make sure all the services was done . Prob be smarter to spend the 9k a 02 + cost these days . That way yoo can get the glass rear window and little bit better motor.

i have a MY00 and i check the oil and it doesn't really burn it. but, then again my S is not my daily.

try to get all the maintenance records. and see if they did the 60,000 mile valve readjustment. i love my 2000 and its not that expensive to upgrade the softtop

the thing with the diff. is the car doesn't like being launched. You can but, if you rev up to 6k and dump the clutch alot. its not going to want to hold together. but, as long as you don't abuse it. it will stay together

Well I don't plan to ever launch it at all so I don't have to worry about the rear diffuser right? And where can you get an 02 for 9000, and thats with how many miles?
