I just sold my exige, which I daily drove for about a year. They're pretty much bulletproof, the only thing I would say to watch out for is premature cam wear. I had to replace one of my camshafts due to wear on the high lift lobe at around 30k miles. It's easy to check just pop the valve cover off and feel the highest point of the high lift lobes, if you can feel a ridge with your fingernail then you're gonna need to replace the cam. It's a known problem on these cars, but nobody is quite sure why it happens.
