Need some help with a purchase

[MMK21]

I sold the 2nd Gen I had for a couple of months and have been looking at a 1997 4Runner Limited with 115,000 miles on it. Its missing the front bumper (planning on doing the ARB front bumper anyways) and a few trim pieces. It seems to be in pretty excellent mechanical wear and the only problems seem to be cosmetic. The seller is asking $5000, does that sound like a good deal to you guys?

thank you for the help.

Be weary of mileage that low, could be odometer fraud. I would run a VIN check to verify mileage and have somebody look at the vehicle unless you feel comfortable doing it. That's only a bit over 6k miles a year, so it shouldn't look very worn inside on seats, etc. 5,000 isn't a bad price if the mileage is legit and everything works. Good luck!

Agreed. That mileage smells fishy.
