    Buying Corolla S - 150,000 Miles

    Yeah i wouldnt pay more then 4k for that car man. Tell them all the details about the car, high miles and its a low maintenance car. Its not a bmw so i dont know why they would charge 8k for it thats crazy. Haggle them if you can get it in the 4's.

    Buying Corolla S - 150,000 Miles

    Also if there are any problems with it Toyota corollas normally do not cost a whole lot. I work with my dad at his shop and fixing it wont be as bad as fixing a bmw or a ford even. Depends on the problem of course but they do last. it would be a smart buy if you ask me
