I have a 94 sts and I am thinking about buying a 2005 awd 1sg. Have they worked out the oil leeks and head issues on the newer models? My 94 needed a new engine at 55000 miles due to cracked head. the new engine has 100000 miles leeks oil, burns oil and is fouling out plugs with oil and coolant.

They have worked out a lot of kinks in the newer N*..they have been testing the since 2000 and have gone though a ton of R&D...but you are still looking at a newer steup with AWD and we are working on new TSB's and field research has been good...but with any car it is mechanical and things tend to break and wear....
