I had a '99. Bought it in '02 with 31k miles and traded it in '07 with over 150k. I put a battery in it, did a tune up and drained and refilled the transmission fluid. The rear main seal was leaking like hell and the drivers side window switch was broken when I traded it in, but she was a great little car. Just needed something bigger for the kids.
As for American cars, they are getting better. Ten years ago imports were much better, however, in recent years the American companies have started trying to win back their reputations.
