I'd have to say "yes". Although the styling had never quite grown on me, the mechanicals themselves have proven to be extremely troublefree. After almost 200,000 miles, I haven't replaced anything except for the usual wear items. Still have the original rear brake linings, current set of tires have 86,000 miles on them with still 7 mm of tread depth. Front brake pads replaced once. On its third set of spark plugs. Other than fluids and filters, thats IT for repairs. Fortunately, its new enough to have escaped the waterpump and wiring issues.


-Mark- '99 Mystique LS, totally original (including the original water pump and the premium stereo)! Bought new in December 1998 for $21,000. 208,000 miles
