have an opportunity to get a good deal on an 01 T5 w/60K miles, but am concerned about the potential for expensive problems down the road.

is the high pressure turbo more problematic than the low pressure turbo on the standard issue v70?

can the 17 inch rims be replaced with 16 inch rims with tires that are not so low profile (to lower risk of dented rims and for affordability)?

will I always have a problem with one or more of the gazillion electronic bells and whistles on the T5?

what haven't I thought about that will cost me money?
