Mine's been great but I don't drive like 85% of the people on this site.
Valve coking isn't a huge problem. You'll have to get it done once in it's lifetime, maybe twice if it ever see's 300k+ and the owner still thinks it's worthy to maintain.
I personally only want new cars for myself, but some people can't afford new every 5-10 years.

There are a few factors that would cause each car to require cleaning sooner then the next. Such as type of oil used ( low ash is preferd ) , length of oil change interval , length orf driving cycle and weather or not the car gets lugged in each gear apperantly makes a difference as well.

Just speaking from experience.....I bought my 2010 in 7/10 and it has been a very reliable and fun DD......the only time i needed to go the dealership for service was to replace the rear calipers because the E-brake was not holding the car in place and to have the GMS1 installed.....I still have the original rear pads and rotors with 42K miles on the car.
The only things I have had to replace so far were front pads and rotors and a new set of tires at around 30K miles.
No other issues whatsoever.......as long as you can deal with rattles lol
