I have an opportunity to buy a 2006 LT (2.2 Litre) with 37,000 KM (I'm in Canada) for what sounds slike a good price. The car looks good, clean etc but I have read on the internet about some issues (intake manifold gaskets leaking, etc) so I'm sort of looking for some advice. Good car potentially or not?????
Any advice would be welcomed...

The 2.2L ECOTEC is a solid, tried and true motor. The infamous intake manifold gasket issues were with older V6 motors.

I would try and test drive it... My wife and I have an 06 with the 3.5 V6... we test drove the 4 cyl and it felt sluggish and was always looking for the right gear.... we drove the v6 and it was a totally different car...
