Default And you guys thought you had a lot of miles!!!

Sup guys! I was recently looking at www.autotrader.com checking to see that if my add for my S2k was taken down yet or not. I happened to come upon a 2000 S2000 with no damage, and clean title. Asking price was $14,999. It had a total of 71,139 miles on it!!! Damn, where did this person drive? Anyone seen anything higher?

Even at $15K USD and with those miles on it, thats a GREAT PRICE. But I think the car either has problems with it or that the dealer misrepresented the price or made a typo.

The VIN on that car is higher than mine. The person probably had it for a little over a year, maybe close to 2 years, but that's still a lot of miles to put on a car.

For that price it would be a great, But at 71,000 miles, many parts would need to be replaced.
Looking at these numbers someone should hit 100,000 in 2002.
