I have owned mine since February 2008 and can honestly say it has never let me down other than when the battery in the alarm fob died and the immobiliser kicked in at a show. I had to replace the engine mounts but considering they were original, didn't bother me too much. It's covered 109k without a rebuild, sounds sweet and drives mint! It's also running stage 3 which is a nice road spec IMO but more can be had and be just as reliable
