Besides what new car could be as much fun??? I know, an M3 or a RS4 but I don't want to pay for one of those and they don't have hatches!!
My Viggen's an '02 with 70,000 miles and I've decided to completely renew the shocks, front end (strut mounts and bearings, wheel brgs, stanchions, control arms, tie rod ends, and stabilizer links....man does it feel tight again!!) and cooling system (hoses, pump and thermostat).
I'll also be replacing all electric sensors (CPS, MAF, coolant temp and air temp, etc.). Fuel pump I will probably not replace (but I may buy a spare) same with the alternator, power steering pump and rad. I'll keep an eye on those as best as I can.
My Viggen's a keeper and I'd like to have it for at least another 5 years if not 10.
