I just came across this really clean 2007 1-owner SE/SL with 55k for $9400. I am looking for a solid reliable car. What are your insights on its cost of ownership for the next 5 years and the short-term maintenance that I should expect? Also at 55K what maintenance should have already been completed at this point? Thanks!
