> [@LZ](#): > > JayS is pretty much trying to get you down to a good price on this. I feel bad enough bringing it up in his new car thread. In fact I’ve been following it since yesterday without commenting because didn’t want to be the first to bring up IMS problems (I let cretinx do that). Besides, my next car will be a convertible so I don’t want his car. 🙂 ---

Are you worried at all being so low miles and being older? I would think a 2005 with only 2000 miles would be sitting around all the time and probably have more things needing to be replaced soon from drying out and getting worn and being too old for a normal warranty from the maker. Great pickup but just wondering if that crossed your mind and if that was any factor. ---

It did but, this car was stored in a heated garage and everything looks brand new. If it were outside exposed to UV, hot, cold, moisture, etc I would be more concerned. I don’t think this car has ever even been wet! Edit: It was a specially built, heated, one car garage so there was literally no “traffic” in and out from other cars. It was more like a hermetically sealed vault. lol ---
