You have to remember, the car was bult probably built in 98, and so the car is 8 years old. also it is being sold, and if the car was perfect he would not be selling it. also he has been planning on selling it for a while so has probably not done some of the major services. It sounds like you realize that you will have to put some money into it.
My suggestions would be to look around you in your area to make sure you have a good mechanic, parts availability, the desire to do some diy stuff, and to drive an individual car.
my big repairs have been turbo, oil pressure switch, temp sensor, and eninge mount. I have had some other stuff but they can relate them to an accident when some body t-boned me gong 55, and the passenger side had to be rebilt. I don't suggest going through that...
