Nice find. The car looks to be in better shape then some with half the mileage.

Just a question to some of the other guys, is $3k really a deal on this. I think it sounds about right for a 96 auto with 250k miles on it. I know its a one owner, clean,etc...., but I wouldn't of paid more then $3k for it. None the less still a good car for what I think is the right price. I mean a guy I know bought a clean 92 5-spd w/ 76k miles on it for 1700, needed a new clutch only. His dad works for Toyota and it checked out fine, now thats a deal IMO.

Well IMO it was a good deal just because it was a one owner, meticulously maintained car. Mileage really was not a factor for me but the shape the body/interior is in was so I feel I came off really good on this one.

I think people sometimes get caught up in the mileage scare, what's important is that it's been well taken care of and they have prove that it's well maintained.

I see nothing wrong with high milage cars at all, I sold my SC300 with 204k miles on it. Even after all that I still would of only payed 3k for this car.
