I have a friend who is selling his 99 gs 400 with 225 miles on it.. I told him that I'll buy it off of him because I need a car. He said the car is dealer maintained and just needs timing belt and water pump replaced with shouldn't be more than $1000. Now I think the milage it too high but the car runs smooth and is well maintained.

What price should I offer him? or not buy it?

Thanks
thanks for the suggestions.. much appreciated
 
You shouldn't buy it just because you need a quick car remember that it's an investment. A car that is 14 years old and has over 200K like that no matter what brand needs to either have a serious overhaul or be sold for something else other than personal use. Your best bet is either leasing a car or buying one with less miles and newer. If you decide to buy it pay only somewhere in between 1000-6000 dollars do not pay anymore or any less.
