Definite buy if your state doesn't have vehicle inspections.

No need to hurry, they'll only go down in price. For now it's 00-02 model years. Once they get out of warranty and the IMA light goes on you get good deals. I'd like to pick up an 04 in a year or two to replace mine. I think that year is when they changed to the really comfy seats.
