The V6 is by far the more dependable engine from that year (and 2000 for that matter). It also only came with the SE package, so the car will be well equipped. It's better car to drive than the LPTs of that year, which are woefully underpowered. No stick though.
You'll need to ensure the timing belt, tensioner and pulleys have been changed at 60k intervals, and check all the usual maintenance and wear issues on a car that old. Plow through the forum archives for those.
