    good choice! coupes RULE!!

    Welcome to the site. there is a LOT of info on here about pretty much anything you need to know. Just search around first before you post a question.

    150K isnt that many miles. As long as you take care of it it'll last you for another 150K. A basic tuneup will give your car more getupandgo and if you help it breath better (intake/header/exhaust) you'll notice a big difference in power.
