Hey Wade; I have a 96 3.5L as well, 178K on it right now. Bought it in April of 2000 with 94K on it. I had a lot of things that needed replacement right after the 100K marker. I did the water pump/timing belt, thermostat, serpentine belt, new battery, and tires in pretty quick succession. Other than that, however, there's been no major repairs to it. I have some things I need to do now...the transmission hoses are leaking a bit, radiator leaks a bit, etc. Nothing serious, though. I would ask if anything "big" has been done recently, and if not, know that you might be looking at something soon, like the water pump. Otherwise, $4000 isn't too shabby. I paid $6900 for mine and it's probably given me close to $10K at least in use, if not more. Nice car. Nathan ------------------------ Yahoo!
