To be safe I would budget $3K - $5K a year in maintenance costs for an out of warranty coupe.
You can do a lot of the maintenance work on the car yourself but the parts are expensive and many of the items (ie clutch, brakes, tires) wear quickly.
There is a list of pre-purchase inspection items in the forums.
