Me personally, I would not want that many miles starting out. But with that said, if you can get it for less than $8K, and it is what you are looking for(color, options, etc) then go for it. Sounds like some appropriate repairs have been done, just make sure you have some cash budgeted for unexpected surprises. From your previous thread, you had quite a bit more budgeted so that shouldn't be an issue unless that changed. Just curious why you stopped looking for a newer S model? There are no guarantees what ever you buy, regardless of how well it's been cared for. It is a mechanical device built and cared for by humans, you have to budget for that.
