    Yes vent is a factory fail (forced on them by EPA).

    Lots of good info here / several threads to read though.
    Best thing to do is as suggested, pull up the carpet plus RH kick panel and physically look for signs of leakage.

    Looks like some serious issues...should I stay away since it will be a daily driver including winter?

    Agreed, most never have a leak issue.

    Rick, are you aware of where the areas for leaks are other than the 2 drains on the cowl? Perhaps if I pick up the car I may need to pay you a visit.

    On some it's more involved, drip rail sealing issue. Pull the kick panel n take a close look, no water and your good to go. Great driving cars.

    My 06 has never leaked and I drove it in plenty of wet weather before it became a garage queen.

    Generally speaking I think these years are good reliable rides. In the nearly 60k I've driven it, axle seals and an alternator is all I've done outside of maintenance and mods. It needs an abs sensor now too but that's not common and I think a spirited track day had something to do with it.

    Oh, one last thing. The drivers and passengers window seals also deteriate over time. Fix is cheap and easy.
