My mom had one of those things... *shudders at the engine pics* I remember that thing... All too well... Keep an eye on your oil level. These cars are known to have a bad factory torque spec on the head bolts and end up blowing out the head gasket at the back of the engine. Ends up just leaking oil out the back so as long as you keep the level up you're find (Mom had her's for 7 years with the blown gasket and ran fine just had to check the oil once a week or so).

Other thana that looks pretty clean. Not too bad a price either. They made an R/T version of the Stratus that had a few nice body add ons.

Well keep up on the maintenance. And don't bother trying to go over 120 MPH. The governor is set at 120 and it'll take your power away till you coast down to 80 again.
