Sometimes being over certain milage humps is beneficial being that the car wouldn't make it there without having certain problems addressed. Something to consider if you actually plan on driving it instead of "investing" in it.

... Nothing can check rod bearings unless you go in and look at them, it's just something you have to think about changing at some point. Throttle actuators are the same, unless you wanna pay someone all the labour to go in and look, at that point you might as well just change them anyways

Mileage is an overrated selling feature of a car (drivable cars). It's is just like the age of a person.

I mean, we see 20 year olds doing fuck all except eating and gaming while an 80 year old runs a 10k.

westopher 11-30-2016 11:03 AM

That's stunning for a half a million mile car!

tofu1413 11-30-2016 11:26 AM

So would I, but I'd bet a paycheque that it ends up around 30k USD. My wife actually wants me to pull the trigger and place a bid
A) she wants me to sell my car and
B) she doesn't understand finances haha.

Let me know if you're selling your car, I probably have an extra 3-4000$ laying around :troll:

Sorry JT car doesn't work in Alberta, just like the rest of your oil industry.
I'll air B&B you my place for a couple months if you front me the money for the e30 though.
