I actually liked it! I laughed out loud when I read the title!
(My voltage regulator failed after I paid for the car with a check and got maybe 5 miles into my 250 mile drive home, and my DRC shit the bed 2 months into ownership, so it was a rough start for me, though these are all known issues.)

I did note the miss on the rear cup holders, that's the one I primarily use. I've already removed the armrest cupholder for additional storage space.
He overstated the trans failures a bit, correct Dave? And, he could have mentioned that the DRC failure really just means you spend $2k for coilovers, but I can't fault him for that.

And to be honest, his overall assessment is exactly why I bought mine! Total sleeper with the heart of a lion. Yeah, it's going to be spendy to maintain, but nice things cost money. And, I'm optimistic that buying mine at $16k, I can have it for a long while or a short while and not lose much to depreciation at all.

And to Nene's point, all of these $70-100k cars that are 10+ years old can certainly cost you the resale value in maintenance on a bad year. But, you drive a car like this because it's f**** badass, not because it's a prudent financial decision. If that was the only reason to buy a car, a 4 year old Camry would be the only car anyone would buy! And, I think the RS has held the value better than most similar cars. 2001 S500's are running $3-7k on a quick ebay scan, and will have similar maintenance expense.
