I betcha they'd go under $20k. So there's 2 options, they drove it 70k that quickly by driving REALLY fast and hard, or they spent so much time driving 70k they didn't have time to drive it hard.

If I had to drive 70k I would drive a hard 70k. I would like to grab that thing up and stroke it. Then I might do some engine work.:eek::D

I don't buy performance cars with high miles on them because you never know what you're getting into. A lot of my friends have gone that route, I'd say about 20% got great deals and trouble free vehicles, however the rest have had plenty of headaches along the way.

That one on cars.com looks pretty clean though, if you could get it for under 20k that wouldn't be too bad. Does it have an extended warranty?

EDIT: After reading Inferno's comment, I forgot to mention I walked out on a ridiculous deal on an '08 demo w/ 1100mi driven by the owner of the dealership just because I didn't want one that was beat on before me.

Walk away!! Lol i wouldnt do it man.. I picked my 06 up with 8,000 miles for $26,000.. I mean even if you get it for 20g's who knows whats wrong with it and whats going to happen... If you do go that route make sure u get a extended warranty!! The little hemrats get expensive to fix. Specially the 6.1!

OMG, 70k on an 06. Thats really high man. I know its cheap and sounds like a great deal but you will most likely spend the difference in repairs that a low mile SRT would cost.
