I would be a tad weary, sometimes a failed pump means the engine has been overheated and thus may well have issues further down the road. Also if it is easy to r&r the pump, why not do it and then sell the car without this major issue. Far as cheap cars go, Hyundai has reputation for being reliable and cheap to run.

I cannot imagine that there is one on the road with the original intake.  Most 
of them failed years ago.  But, yes, that is the one problem with that engine 
and only for those years.

Now, here is a great car and its CHEAP.

A water pump isn't even that hard to put on these cars.   I had a 1990 Lesabre. 
 I sold it to my neighbor a few years ago.  It has over 225,000 miles on it 
now.  He loves it.
