While there are a few posters here, with high/higher mileage cars, either of those cars is a leap of faith, imo...the 4.6 pictured, looks 'nice', but has some odd conglomerations, and both have considerable mileage. The mileage itself may not mean that either one are bad deals, or won't run well, but both are nearing that mystical time frame when auto trans, and other stuff may be suspect.

RE: "I have a choice between two cars."
There must be other Xs, out there in your locale, with fewer miles, but if those are the two you are enamored with, it may pay to dig deeper, and a PPI is a must.

No used car pricing maven, but that "$16" sounds high, and "all the mods" are just that: stuff previous owners did, but should have little impact on real selling price, imo.
