I recently picked up my F in Dallas w/ over a 100k. The miles don't scare me on these cars compared to what kind of condition they are in. The car had two previous owners all of which had service records recorded which was a plus for me. Clean title, no accidents, interior and exterior was very clean. I did a check over about every inch of the car for leaks, wear in certain areas... the buyer even let me jack the car up to check a few things. So long story short I drove out paying a lot less than I expected. I agree with what's stated... Its all about service history and visual condition of the car...
I just purchased my 08 with 100k on the clock. Dealer maintained.
Just recently had plugs, diff, new tires, and many other things serviced at 96k. Again always dealer maintained. Interior had minimal wear and the PO installed 11+ LED headlights and recently a JoeZ cat back.
Spent 25k

Nope its Madator Red Mica (2008), but it (was) bone stock till I got my hands on it lol
I've since done little things to it... HPS intake tube, AFE filter, Swift Springs in the front only, and LED pretty much everything on the outside and inside. Also waiting for my midpipe and rear exhaust to get to me.

No worries! lol I'll post pics as soon as the weather permits. I just need to have the hood resprayed. The car traveled between Baton Rouge and Houston a lot. Got some rock chips I otherwise wouldn't mind but I want to have a protective film installed on so I want it to look fresh.

Thank you! Yea that's Justind27's interior.
Clean car you have as well. I came across a few MR within my price range and LOW miles but I just couldn't justify settling for another red car. Always loved the USB so I had to jump on it ASAP.

Yes it's very dirty at the moment, I live outside town in non paved areas or driveways so yes maintaining my interior is much more work and not a top priority (1 time a week is my standard unless there's car events going on then ill do more. Summer is cleaner since it's just dusty
