Just purchased 2013. Happy because: beautiful ride, lot of comfort measures.
Sad Because: cheaply built compared to the 2003; Came from New Jersey and so has a lot of surface oxidation.

Why did I buy it? I have had the 2003 for 9 years. In the last 2 years I have:
-Replaced the CLUTCH, DM FLYWHEEL, SLAVE CYL., STARTER (while I was changing the clutch); 4 O2 SENSORS, converted to X-PIPE, AFE AIR FILTER, MAF, NEW ROTORS/PADS, DRIVER DOOR HANDLE, KEY LOCK.

I recently replaced the o2 sensors and MAF because of lean codes OBDII. I continue to get the fault codes and need to smoke it to check for vacuum leaks.

I love the 2003. It is a tank compared to the 2013.

I am looking for tips and things for the new one. I certainly miss the passenger footwell 12v charge socket.


p.s. No reasonable offer refused for the 2003.............Salem,Oregon
