Well, as long as you are cool with having to constantly put engine oil in it.

My 99 Corolla burnt way more oil than my RX-8 did and the latter actually has a reason to burn oil. It was a known design flaw in the 99 Corolla and Camry 4-cylinder. It was a beater though, so I didn't care too much.

The motor used in the Camry had a known issue with the valve stem seals for certain years. And that was just a tad newer than the years I was taking about. Earlier years didn't have the problem.

Well I'm not really a fan of very old machines that can have me playing on it a lot to keep it alive. I make my own maintenance, but if I can get away with it for few years, I'd be happy. But I'm not really looking for now. I plan to keep the Tiburon for maybe another 1-2 years until my girlfriend's out of college (she plans to go back somewhere next winter or next summer for 6 months). Then it will be time. I'll see what's available at that time and if the budget allows for something a little more expensive, I will. Time will tell, maybe the Tiburon will die before. But that machine is pretty tough haha.
