Howdy:
I have a 99 GS 300 I purchased new. It now has 53,000 miles. The car has always been garaged, and really does look almost new. I have always used dealer service departments. According to Edmond's I got $1,500 added to its resale value because of the low mileage, so I think it's safe to assume that the low milegage is valuable.
My dealer in Livingston, NJ (Warnock) is always after me to change the timing chain. It's an expensive operation, and I don't understand why they want to do it when the car has such low mileage, although the age of the car may be their justification.
I put the car on the market yesterday because I inherited a 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee from my uncle, and I don't need three cars (I also have a 97 Aurora.)
