 replaced just about everything on the car threw out the 5 years i have owned the car. so a good car if you can do the work your self and find the correct aftermarket parts to use as a lot of the OEM parts are pricey as well.  If you were having someone ells do the work then this would be a more expensive car to own.  Always keep on top of the timing belt changes with new water pump and tensioner.  Iv replaced the clutch, new drive shafts, ball joints twice sins iv had it, recharged the A/C system a few times, gone threw a few sets of tires in the last 70k miles iv had it.  will drive the car till the motor goes, then probably put another motor in the car and keep driving it.  car drives like a go kart.
