****** bro, hate to see this for the new year.
I say keep yours. Buy another nbs. Part yours out , there’s ALWAYS people looking for nbs parts no matter where you’re at. You’ll have another nbs plus parts plus make money on top.

And F**K those tards on gmfs. I almost want to go back and troll tf out of them for fun....I’m so good at it lmao. They get so mad at me :laughing1:

you'll regret getting a Chrysler 300 Hemi or not. Those cars (and any Chrylser product since 2000 and probably earlier for that matter) are huge flaming piles of crap. You'd be much better off getting another NBS SUV or even an OBS and you'd spend less doing it.

QFT.

As good-looking as they are and with the cool factor of an SRT luxury ride, it's a shame that the chances are it'll be a money pit. One that is in good, "reliable" shape would likely be out of your budget. It's just NOT a sensible financial decision.

I wouldn't be scared of miles (TOO MUCH) but you'd definitely want to verify it's maintenance history and look it over VERY good! My 07 has 221k on it and is running as well as it ever has.

It does look to be well taken care of. The seats don't even look torn up as is the usual problem with leather

If you go look at it, ask the seller if they'd agree for you to take it to your dad's shop to get it on a lift and look it over very thoroughly. Most people will be open to this unless they're trying to hide something. This isn't to expect perfection but just so that you have all information possible about it's condition and what work you may or may not be facing in the near future such as seals, ball joints, brakes,......

The problem with asking to do that is that it's an hour and a half away from me

Then in that case, do your due diligence and crawl on the ground to find out the same information. With that kind of mileage you'll want to do that just to be sure you're getting what you think you're getting. Even take your dad with you so he can look, as well.

My whole point is don't be afraid of mileage by itself but with any vehicle you go look at look over it with a fine tooth comb so that you're not surprised with any issues after the purchase. For me, if a vehicle needs brakes or shock or any other suspension/steering components it's not a big deal as most of that stuff is easy enough to repair as long as the price of the vehicle reflects what it needs. The main thing I look for is no odd noises coming from the drivetrain and the trans shifts as it should.
