My 2003 V6 is coming up on 271k miles, and it's generally been a very good car. I have no regrets owning it.
Keep upon the scheduled maintenance (which on balance is no more than the 4 cyl, except for the 60k timing belt) and enjoy it.
Other failure items seem to occur no more frequently than the 4, and in my experience the DICs seem to be less frequent. I'm on my second set (first replacement) and can safely say that I don't worry about carrying a spare around with me 'just in case'
Enjoy the car. I've certainly enjoyed mine.
