Buying a high mileage car in career mode doesn't feel like a gamble. Sure automatic transmissions slip more and engine idle is rough, but what about worn suspension or brakes or tyres or synchros? What about engine damage/lost hp due to age/bad maintenance? Interiors also look brand new. Btw is paint faded on older vehicles? Not sure about that one --- Post updated --- Due to negligence, brake pads could be changed to cheaper/basic variant
