Hi all...I used to own a 2005 model...I think it was the lower powered 4 port one...it had 5 forward gears. My question is how can I tell for sure which model it is...I am thinking of buying another...how can the 4 or 6 port be definitely identified?
thanks a lot.

 

If North America, the 4-port only came in 2004-2005 automatics. Everything else is 6-port.
In other regions it's more of a mixed bag, but a 4-port will not have the 6-port's 9000rpm redline.

 

Thanks a lot for that info...I am thinking of buying a 2007 6 speed...what should I look for regarding engine condition? I think she has done about 60,000 km. Do they suffer from things like oil leaks and oil deposits in the tail pipe like piston engined cars?

They're not like piston cars, but they're not voodoo either
