4th Gen Buying Advice

Hi T4R enjoyers. Big fan of the 4th Gens. As you may know, the market is terrible for them. People asking way too much, rust, stupid mods, etc.

I’m curious what you think a good price is for an 04 v8 with 250k miles. I found one.

I would typically NEVER buy something with those miles but… the guy is an enthusiast and sounds like his commute was doubled and he’s not thrilled about getting rid of it, yadayadayada

It does have a high quality 3” lift that is the exact brand and style I would have put on myself. Timing belt, water pump, radiator all done in last 30k miles. Zero rust, excellent paint.

Only drawback is the owner before him did not report hardly anything to carfax and he owned it for almost 100k miles.

Debating it… $9,000… thoughts?
