No offense to anyone......but the '03's and 04's are the same car; so don't fool yourselves. If I remember correctly the only change on the '04's was adding a tire pressure light (which itself is sometimes problematic!).
If you read this forum thoroughly, I think you would find very little difference in the reported issues between '03's and '04's. Apparently some of the issues are not yet resolved by '06!!!

I think (no offense to 03 owners) if you stay away from the first year you should be ok. Of Course the later models 05 and 06 have gotten just about everything ironed out. Now let's see what happens with the new and improved 07 sedan!
