I wouldn't be concerned about the drivetrain in it. It's pretty solid. Should get you to the 200,000 mile mark easily enough. I think the biggest things for a car with that mileage and age is squeaks and rattles. My 1997 Cutlass Supreme has 142,000 miles on it, and has just started to develop some rattles in the rear of the car over big bumps. I'm not too worried about them, really. More of an annoyance, really. I have a different engine than you do, so my experiece doesn't relate, but the transmission is the same, and it's shifting solid, and not making much noise. Here's to another 100,000 miles!
