I bought an 05 new, 5 speed though, and put 70k on it when I traded it. I had one issue, an AC hose leaked but it was warrantied out.

I'd stay away from any SRT version as they tend to get serious messed with between "mechanics" putting ricky racer parts on it to driver's hammering it.

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
