Im not sure about a 99 but oil changes are a bit more expensive than the average car...the ride itself should be smooth. Make sure you get the car checked out before you buy though to cover all ur bases. So far though, the oil change is the only thing thats been a bit pricey. Good luck with your decision =)

i have a '99 and as long as you get regular inspections along with your oil changes, it should not be too expensive. however, bear in mind, that routine maintenance will be more expensive than for anything japanese, but it is worth it for a quiet, smooth, easy to drive car.


as c240mama said, be sure to get a good inspection before you buy. i got a good inspection and bought mine knowing it needed about $4000 dollars in repairs which were mostly deducted from the purchase price.
