I'm not concerned with speed. I need something reliable. From my experience with other cars my feeling is that the car just needs a tune up. I'm going to talk to my mechanic this afternoon.

Thanks,

-Dave

Now I am happy. I would love this car to last me well into the 200K miles. Of course with proper maintenance. When did you buy your car? What problems have you had with it (if any)? When you purchased the car did you do any work to it?

If not many parts were changed since the car was new, besides a tune up do I need to touch any suspension parts? What parts tend to wear out fast? Any experiences?

Its bound to proubly need new shocks struts, brakes.
A ten year old car a lot will need to be done from time to time.
I've you love the car that much then it might be worth it.
A car that sat for a long time might want to look at the underneth for rust exp on the brake lines fuel lines ext.
My 96 I new the original owner (in the family) so I new exactyly what has been done + it is not my daily driver so if the alternater takes a dump I just fix it when I get the time.
