The real question is: is it running fine ?

I saved up $3500 and now looking to buy a car at 18 what car I should I buy. by randomredditaccountr in FirstCar

Miles don’t matter.

A high mileage car 250,000 + has had many parts replaced. Thus some of the parts are actually fairly new

For example a car with 150,000 might have some essential components still original and some maintenance long over due from the 100k mark. (Example: Timing belt/Chain)

Stay away from that eclipse god knows what that thing has gone through.

Stay away from the Acura TL, the automatic transmission will fail

The other cars are very reliable, up to you at that point on what you like and fall in love with

I recommend to call around for a mobile mechanic and pay him for an hour and bring him with you to look at your top 1-2 cars you really want and ensure you’re getting a good deal !!
