my question is... how do you put that many miles on a car haha
no im jk, my parents used to buy a brand new car every 2 years because from all the traveling for hockey they would have over 100k on them starting from 0.
maybe the owner went everywhere SOOOO fast that he was able to get a billion things done in one day so he would just keep driving faster and faster.
Just make sure it's in 100% working condition. have it 100% looked over and it should be good

As Jim and other said, use and what kind of 100k were put on it matters more than the number of miles. I wouldn't buy it for $17k but for $15k or under I'd seriously consider it, especially if it were going to be a significant project/race car, or a dd you wouldn't mind putting some work into. Example: you aren't a candidiate for financing a new $32k Evo, but have $15k cash to buy one outright and will have plenty of cash regularly to restore/build it. In fact, for the amount of modding most of us plan or at least think about doing, starting with a car like that would make sense, as the engine, suspension, and brakes are the main things to wear out after that much use, and once, upgraded, except for the crapply little problems with the interior etc., i't'd be as good as any other built evo IMO.

These are great cars, but lets not forget they have a lot more moving parts than your average commuter car.
Replacing drivetrain parts isnt cheap and they wont last forever.
But honestly, I would buy it, If this is one of the only ways for you to get one, then do it. These cars drive amazing.
