It's very clean, and I think the low miles are why you would be paying a premium.

In the end though, as nice as it would be to have a 10+ year old car with 50k miles:

1. People are driving these cars around with over 200k miles*...so it's not like they die at 100k or anything. (*IF you maintain them)

2. There are cars in just as good condition with higher miles for thousands less (like say $5k)

3. It looks to be a base, or at the most an active.

4. You will always pay a premium buying a car from a dealer rather than a private sale.


To be honest...there's a Ti for sale on this board (it's a Hellrot) for $5k, that is in pristine condition. I don't think I've seen a nicer condition Ti. I don't know the miles and forget the seller...but I'll look for the thread.
