Mileage on RX8

Sup guys, I'm new around here and had a couple questions.

I'm am hoping to buy my first RX8 this week, and I was wondering if 75,XXX miles is too much?

They are selling it for $11,000.

It is velocity red, has a nav system, and has this interior.....

What do you guys think?

My '04 has 91k miles on it and I'm still happy camper. As long as it hasn't been heavily modded, it should be good for a lot more.

My 8 is an 04 and has 74,000 miles. Runs like a top. If it is stock, it should be ok. You may want to work into the deal that you can take it to a Mazda dealer of your choice and have the car checked out and if I fails, they take it back.

Welcome to the club.

Can we make a sticky of "I am thinking of a 200_ RX8 with _____ miles. Is it a good deal/reliable/..." We get these every week.
