Yaris w/ 100,000 miles

So I've been searching for Yaris' in my area and I found one in my price range. It is a 2008 with almost 107,000 miles on it for $5,995. Does this seem like a good buy? Here's the link-

I have been keeping my eyes open for a cheap one for a project and I haven't seen any cheaper than that that don't have a salvage title.

107K is not bad, as long as the car was properly maintained during that run.

I'd definitely get it checked out by my mechanic. I looked up the dealer though, and they unfortunately get iffy reviews.

I got mine for $3900 with 119k miles. Runs like a champ. Zero issues, no leaks, and no weird noises. I did change all the fluids though as a precaution.

Seems like the Yaris isn't holding its value

In this day and age 100K miles shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Those are unusual prices today. To say the least. But in some areas of the country where people walk around with their knuckles dragging on the ground and dont understand the goodness of Toyota and Yari its possible I guess.

Here in NJ a local dealer is selling a 2002 ECHO with 127k on it for $6695.

These are some of the most reliable cars ever made plus they get outstanding fuel economy. The public is starting to catch on a little Im thinking.
