Pretty much as the title says im looking to hand the keys of my rs to my dad and possibly pick up an 02-03 rex but most are around 120-140k in milage At that stage in the ej's life is it worth picking one up or looking else where, im trying to get a car for around 250 - 275 per month any thoughts

 
Exactly Eckjay. That things a beaut.

Taken care of, these engines last a long time. Evan and Mighty have mega miles on theirs. You take a chance with any used car purchase, just remember that.

 
There are a handful around for 12-13k that are in the 60-70k mile range. I considered going this route before I picked up my 07.

 
you can always do what i did, buy a high mileage one, pay it off while the motor still runs good, then put together a built motor to replace the high milage one. use the money you saved on buying a high milage car to pay for the performance motor.

 
162,000 on my 02 and still purrs like a kitten..ok more like a kitten/snake...

grrrrrrrr...hissssssssssssss

02 running fine with close to 200k on it. take care of it and dont fall behind in maintenance. that's the key.
