Default VERY INEXPERIENCED! ...looking at a 08 Avenger BUT

it has high kilometers on it. 230,000 to be more exact. Now I'm guessing this is a more american centered website (first time here) so that's about 142,915 miles.

Like stated it's an 08 Avenger and is in absolute mint condition with the only hitch being the higher kilometers on it. Obviously because of this its also priced quite a bit lower than others. About 4,000 less than other Avengers with aprox. 100,000 KMs on it (62,137 miles).

Also I'm told that they've all been highway kilometers and the vehicle has been taken care of very well. I'm planning to go see it tomorrow so hopefully someone can answer my questions below before then and possibly give me some questions to ask/things to look for/etc.

- is this a good/decent buy?
- how are dodges with high mileage/kms?
- how are avengers specifically?
- is this a good/bad year for Avengers?
- if it's well maintained how long would a car like this last?

Thank you!!

08 is the first year for the new flavor of Avengers. My wife's car has the 2.4L 4cyl. Engine is great, but the car did have a couple trim issues and other minor annoyances. All were remedied by Dodge. I realize this is way after your post, but figured I'd throw in my support for the 2.4...
