Andrew(Harofreak00) should be able to run a check for you I believe.
Welcome to the club! That's a lot of miles for an 05.

Re: hello from indiana.
Welcome to the Site.
As for the car, 2005 is a good year, still the miles are very high. I just found a 2000 SSEi with 78K for $3300. They are out there to find.

Re: hello from indiana.
That is a pile of miles for an '05 but I certainly wouldn't run away from it if it is a good deal. My wife and I daily drive a 2003 SSEi and a 2002 SE both with 250,000 miles and I would drive either of them anywhere without hesitation.

Re: hello from indiana.
I'm gonna buck the trend here, I don't see that as a lot of mileage to be honest.
The car is a 2005. Since we're but a few months from 2014, and figure that this particular car was probably put into service late 2004, early 2005, I'm gonna go with the fact that it for all arguements it is a 9 year old car (at least). 234,000 / 9 = 26,000 miles per year. I think that's about average actually. If you wanna stretch it to 10 years, that's 23,400 per year.
