Im looking at getting a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. It has 87,000 miles on it....

...Is that too many? How many more miles could I get out of it realistically?
It was used as a company vehicle, and had about 66,000 put on it from 2003-2005

For being a 2004 it is kind of a lot of miles but not horrible. Most 3800 engines can run 200,000 plus miles and still be fine.

omg thats way too much.. ideally you should look for a car that has 11,000 miles per year

 

[littlesnipes]

i would say that is too much. like the people before me said realistically it should have around 50k miles on it. plus being an american car, engine and transmission are not of the greatest quality. they dont have the longevity of japanese automakers. i would say be very careful about buying this car. plus its a GM car, and we all know how well GM is doing. so warranties and such could become a problem if you purchase it

Normal mileage for a car is 12,500 miles a year, so ideally, a 2004 should only hae 50,000 miles on it. So, the car has high mileage, you might get anywhere from 20,000 to 100,000 miles, depends on if the miles already on it are highway or city and it depends if the car was taken care of.
