I would caution to just listen to this car as you drive it, to hopefully find issues...suspension was a big part for my 00. The rear control arms were pretty pricey to replace not to mention finding them..ebay sells alot of used suspension parts, but it is crazy to buy another person's used item.not everything is good used..kinda like old underwear that are not yours..lol. I bought mine for $800 so a few repairs was easier for me to swallow. If I can shed any light feel free to ask..I love this car..but it loves your wallet..lol.
