-- Posted by pujolsfan at 3:06 pm on Sep. 1, 2008 Okay, so i went car shopping today and found one i really liked but it has 102,000 miles. its a dark green 2003 grand am gt with hood scoop, sun roof and leather seats and rear spoiler. my question is, is that way too many miles? i mean cars are made pretty good now and lasts longer than they used to, but still.. by the way, im not gonna be putting many miles on it anyway. pretty much just going from home to school -- Posted by MXfreak at 3:07 pm on Sep. 1, 2008 price? -- Posted by luv4you at 3:07 pm on Sep. 1, 2008 No... that's not too bad.
