Holy Moly. Go Hyundai. But, I still wouldn't touch one.

New cars aren’t junk, they just have no soul.

I'm sure it's a very nice appliance. I have a Maytag washing machine that's over 20 years old.

They would have to lower that price alot. At those miles everything has to be just about worn out.

Odometer fraud works both ways. If you look at the pics, the condition of the driver's seat, floor mat, and steering wheel aren't consistent with the claimed mileage. Of course, it is possible those parts have been replaced. Would be a very impressive feat if genuine, but I'd still rather have my 300D.

Hyundais are excellent cars in their class. Their biggest selling point: they're nearly trouble free. People have too many misconceptions.
I doubt though, the powertrain warranty is still good. 10yrs/100K miles, which ever comes first.

Given the year, I'd imagine every single one of those miles is highway. That's 300 miles per day for four years straight (drug mule? psycho?). Four years isn't a lot of time to put wear on any of those, even for the slobbiest of people. Also figure that some people don't "wear" out the interior like others do. I'm also sure they gave it a thorough interior detail before taking those pictures.

That being said, it should have been melted down and re-made into a new Hyundai about 300,000 miles ago, or whatever they do with them.
