- Reliability (5)Widely considered one of the most reliably engineered vehicles ever built, with many units reaching 300,000 miles with only basic scheduled maintenance.
- Maintenance (4)While parts are more expensive than a non-luxury brand, the frequency of repairs is remarkably low, though owners must account for the critical timing belt replacement every 90k miles.
- Technology (4)For its era, it was a pioneer with features like adaptive cruise control and keyless 'SmartAccess,' though the navigation and infotainment graphics are naturally dated by modern standards.
- Comfort (5)An absolute benchmark for the industry; the cabin is whisper-quiet with world-class material quality and seats that remain comfortable even on the longest road trips.
- Dynamics (3)The 4.3L V8 is exceptionally smooth and provides effortless power, but the car is tuned strictly for serenity rather than sportiness, resulting in light steering and noticeable body roll.
