Nothing spectacular just an 05 ford explorer. So far I've only changed the deck but I plan on changing the headlight and taillight assemblies and trying to find some oem ford 20's.

How do you like the supercharger? I had a B6 S4 and the 4.2 would roll, I can only imagine what that puppy can do.
My cousin has one and they are pretty quick for a Honda. Get him down in 10 range or lower if you can.

Did you get to check out the car? Yes, that is a lot of miles but I've also seen E55's run strong way past that mileage mark. If the car is well maintained by the owner and not abused, you shouldn't have problems running it for a while and that's exactly the reason why you get the warranty as well specially if getting a high mileage E55.
On another note, my lady crashed my DD Corolla last Thursday so I am looking for another daily driver. My car is salvageable but since the car is cheap, the cost of repair and body work would cost same if not more than what the car is worth so I just took a total loss on it.

What would be a fair price for a 2005 Mazda 3 hatchback with 116,000 miles on it?

lol gotta love NT. I swear most of yall think cars just spontaneously combust at 100K
Its that kind of "disposable" mentality that keeps dealerships rich while future classics get destroyed and fill up the junkyards.

It could probably drive another 100k easy with proper maintenance.

Bro, sure the car has a lot of miles but that car with 116k miles will last to atleast 200k if it was properly maintained with scheduled oil changes and tune ups and not abusing the car. Also, this is NT. I guarantee that not everyone on here has a brand new ride and dispose of their car prior to hitting 100k mark. You might not want an expensive, high maintenance luxury/exotic car hitting that mark but it shouldn't be a problem for a little 4 banger.
^^This.
I bought a daily commute car a few years back with 165k and lasted me 200k before I had any issues with it which was only spark plug and wires, 1 bad injector and replaced radiator. Drove it for another 15k miles before I sold it. Cars don't just stop running after 100k mark. Sheit, you can buy a new/newer car with low miles and still could have hella issues or buy a high mileage car and last you another 80k/100k miles. You just never know with cars sometimes.

i actually never got to check it out. it's still on craigslist, but i decided that i'd REALLY like to have a coupe and something a little better on gas for a DD. i still think that car is a great value and since it's been on craigslist so long, he'd probably be willing to work on the price as well a bit. 111k miles is a lot, but the car has obviously been meticulously maintained and that full bumper to bumper warranty really would put me at ease. my old hand-me-down benz was still running strong at 150k miles and the only thing i was doing at that point was an oil change every 10,000 miles.
also, i'm helping my friend car shop and he either wants an m3 or an m5 and i'm finding 2008's for both of them that are roughly the same price now ($40k-ish) even though the m3 starts at $60k and the m5 starts at $90k

My baby received a few exterior upgrades since I brought her home almost two months ago.
Vinyl wrapped the roof and mirrors and tinted my tails.

Looking to purchase a car, first time buyer.
I'm looking @ a 2002 BMW X5 3.0i w/ 52K miles on it. What's a good price on it? Should I avoid a car that old? Not sure if I'm allowed to post the sales link for the vehicle.
Appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

X5 transmissions are horrendous. .donot buy.. no joke.. do your research. Get an RX or Fx35 if are looking for older crossover style SUVs. The mdx transmissions are poor as well.

Thank you to all for advising me not to purchase the vehicle. Any recommendations for a SUV/Minivan around $12K? Prefer an AWD vehicle. It'll mostly be used on the weekends so probably less than 3K miles a year. Don't really care for brand name. Just need something sturdy, dependable, low cost maintenance, easy on the gas, and will last a few good years. I'm in NYC, not sure how much cold weather will factor in. I know $12K won't get me much and is slim pickings, but appreciate any help and advice.
P.S. - Any good websites to read up on making a purchase on a vehicle? What to know, look out for, etc.
