New STR Owner
Just taken ownership of a 2005 Ultraviolet Blue STR with 83k.
Everything is good so far, bar a minor bit of whistling when going at 'heavy cruise' speeds. Not 100% sure where its coming from, but my no 1 suspicion is the window seal. Oh and only getting 24mpg (uk mpg) out of my daily 56 mils commute - was hoping for 26-28ish but nevermind, its still worth it.

R = deduct at least 10% of the EPA documented rating
you may get some of that back with some fuel system cleaning product, minimizing vaccuum/air leaks, keeping your mass air flow sensor clean, and gently moving into those intersections.
