I am stuck between a high miler that is much cheaper but then i can buy aftermarket warranty, or a more expensive low miler, but no warranty with hopefully less chance to have major issues.
Sure looks nice though.

you are better off spending the extra $$ on a CPO 4.8is, in the long run it will pay off. My father just took in his 4.6is for service at the dealership..came out $4000 later.
just pay the extra 5-6K for a CPOd car and you'll make it back within 2 visits to the dealership
