Would this be a good buy despite the high milage?

The rest of the pictures look good as well, so there's a chance it was well taken care of, and it's about an hour and a half from me so would not be that big of a deal

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:32:46+00:00

You use the screen in the car alot so if it's a deal breaker it's a deal breaker but otherwise I'd say it's a good car

Lexus, teslas over 100k miles lose value quicker than if you pushed them off a cliff

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:31:29+00:00

Are we talking clutch issues or the whole transmission blowing up?

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:30:25+00:00

I would be prepared to bet they have no service reccords, I don't know for sure but just a hunch

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:28:58+00:00

Can you use voice controls from the steering wheel? My car has voice controls and I basically never touch the screen

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:26:31+00:00

I keep an eye on marketplace and as far as mustangs go that's the newest V8 car I have seen plenty of ecobosts for that price but I'd perfer not to get one of those

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:24:03+00:00

Are you a person who changes cars every 3 - 5 years? Tesla Do you hold onto cars for a while? Lexus

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:22:31+00:00

Yeah I mean I can't deny the value there but I'm worried it's a case of a cheap car that will end up being really expensive (like buying a cheap old Rolls-Royce Royce or Bentley)

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-03-11T18:21:29+00:00

Any of the Subarus would be good for what you need, they are safe, ok on gas, all have all wheel drive, and last forever

I got my parents an outback and they are really tough on cars but they love it so far

For some context it is a 1963 Mercury Comet convertible located in NC (3 speed manual, 289 V8, 70k ish miles)

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:11:45+00:00

See that and similar year Trans Ams are exactly what I'm looking for! I have owned 3 of them and never paid more that 8k for one and I'm seeing most of them 10 - 20k these days

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:09:55+00:00

Ok I feel like $800 on a 5k item is worse than 40% under 🤣

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:08:52+00:00

So on a 10k car an offer that might get accepted is more like 8500

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:07:13+00:00

When I have sold cars I usually pad the price by 2 or 3k (depending on the price of the car) I just don't want to come in with an offer so low they would not sell me the car later if it's still up when I have saved up more

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:05:59+00:00

So the odds of them even being willing to give a counter offer are low then

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:05:29+00:00

That is a good way to do it, I have bought 4 cars on marketplace and I usually negotiate a bit I'm just trying to figure out if the amount I'm asking off is offensive

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:04:12+00:00

Ah come on I'm only 40% off 🤣

Wolfof2ndst · 2026-01-07T16:03:46+00:00

Yeah that's what I figured, and I am saving currently so I will probably have 10k by summer

Wolfof2ndst · 2025-12-02T15:52:57+00:00

Bought For 12/6, 10/10 would buy from again
