The QuadCoupe doors are nice to use and make good access to the back seat, and the lack of a pillar makes stuffing a car seat back there easy... I loved that about my Redline...

Being an 04 engine you could check into a timing chain tensioner, as the early design ones are prone to failure... it’s like a $40 part and about an hour to change if you do your own work...

At that price though, you can’t really go too far wrong
