2007 lsj

So I need anew car and will be putting a LOT of miles on it in the next few years. upwards of 100k I found an lsj for $8500.

How reliable are the ss/sc's? Its an original owner and has 73000 miles on it. Thoughts?

They are reliable but if I were putting serious miles on a car I'd be looking at a diesel.

Not TOO many lsjs with that many miles but of the few i've hear dof, no issues. motor's pretty much bulletproof so long as u dont romp on it nonstop

153k and counting. Everything that has broken was not a part of the engine.
EG: My roll pin (pretty sure) just broken a couple hours ago.

If you're doing a lot of miles and you want a reliable car, I personally would just get a simple commuter car that gets great gas mileage. (Civic, corrola, neon, regular cobalt etc.)

That being said... As with every car purchase, be patient... I took my time when I bought my ION Redline and got a G85 with 70k miles on it for $6200
