It’s got a billion miles but it’s in fantastic condition... and just $2,700? That’s squarely in “why the fuck not” territory.

But no. I must resist. I dare not dream. I dare not want. I am strong.

Don’t these more or less use an older, smaller version of the 4.7L V8 that million mile Tundra had? And the same V8 as that million mile LS400?
In other words, the car would probably out live you. Do it!

Drive it. That gen gs/is/sc/ls are all indestructible. Having owned 3rd gen 4runners, they are even more reliable than the toyota trucks...which is quite reliable. The most impressive part is that they just never feel tired. My gs300 at 200k miles was tighter than most newish cars.

It has the 1UZ 4.0 V8 yes, the 4.7 you describe is indeed the 2UZ seen in Sequoias, Tundras, and some 4Runners.

If I needed a car and didn’t need money (and it was a manual), I’d be all over this.
You should buy it.

Let me see if I can help here: As the newest owner of a 200k mile miata, let me just tell you that you have to be prepared to opening your wallet to things that most people don’t even consider as wear items. Things like bushings break down so slowly that no one realizes it. I’m finishing up doing all my suspension bushings now and it’s not fun. In most cases, it’s way easier to replace an entire control arm. Basically anything rubber is hardened. Brake lines, weather stripping, hoses, etc are all ticking time bombs. What is the state of the fuel pump? How about silly things like the wiper motor? How long can those go for in a place where it rains a lot?
Having said all of that, go for it ;) Haha.
