Default Alarus for training?

What do we think of an Alarus CH2000 as a primary trainer and as a weekend
flyer? I've run into a possible opportunity to buy a used CH2000 for
possibly well under market value (at auction, so it really depends on where
the bidding goes). I also have a couple of guys who might be interested in
partnering on it (one a returning student, the other a retired bizjet
pilot).

I'm a zero-hour student, currently working through ground school. I've been
thinking about maybe buying a PA-28-140 next year to train in and for
general flying later, but if the Alarus is a decent plane and I can get a
deal on it...? Can anyone give me more reasons to think yea or nay?
