Would you buy a 2007 TL with 101K miles

Has just had timing belt and water pump changed at dealer who is selling. All records are clean. Price is $16K before negotiations.

Thanks!

honestly though, mileage is just a number. a properly taken care of car with 120k miles can be in better shape than a poorly taken care of car with 60k miles. so just inspect it yourself and make sure its good.

Car sounds good as long as it's clean and, otherwise, runs well. $16k is way high though.

I would. I just picked up an 04 with 101k miles and so far it's been great! Same situation, the timing belt and major maintenance was just done.
