purchasing advice

hi today i came across a 95 240sx for $3600. It has 300k miles on the chassis and i think the engine was replaced at around 180k. Some other things have been replaced too but i can't think of them off the top of my head right now. Nothing performance wise. The exterior and interior are in excellent condition.

Tomorrow i am going to take a better look at it and take it for a drive. I was just wondering if anyone has any opinions about this. thanks.

300K? damn. that's hella high.

check for rust since the mileage is soo high. if it has a clean title it's a toss up because of how much it was driven.

BTW 3600 iss too high regardless of the milage on the engine.
