I am guessing less than 50%, which is not a lot for a $30,000 vehicle that is 13 yo at most.

The other thing to consider is that there were only 14,257 of all model years imported into the US. Unfortunately, many owners are parting the cars out instead of fixing them up. The is probably because they become less expensive at this time and many owners don't know what they are buying. By that I mean that it takes some maintenance to keep them going and are not like many other cars that have cheap parts and less expensive maintenance. So, they just part them out when they seem like they are going to cost them a lot of money to keep them going. Some of us though are in it for the long haul.
