A transmission rebuild is fairly cheap on these. They are not an electric auto all hydraulic. The most problems with these are suspension issues, the CIS fuel injection system and fuel pumps. Also the timing chain and guides will probably need replacing and the new rocker covers are not silver anymore. Other than that they are a well built solid car. Some things are easy but front rotors can be a pain and make sure that the brake calipers arent leaking or binding.
