These cars bring window used with under 10,000 miles good to know for mach 1 residual in ten years especially with inflation no more manuals or V8s
Anyone who has owned and been around high end cars knows that’s a BS argument people stay away from very high mile performance cars and they drop like rocks if they are way over on miles and become money pits. They are secondary transportation like a motorcycleI thought the Boss 302 engine was called Roadrunner, not Coyote. If I wanted a driver I wouldn't buy that car. IMO it's been sitting too much. Fine if it will just sit in the next owner's garage as well, but there could be issues if it's used as a car.
I remember what happened to the 1974 Malibu that my parents got when my grandma passed away. That was a beautiful vehicle that had extremely low miles at the time (mid 90s). Everything worked perfectly for a while. We went on a trip in it and during the trip the seals in the automatic transmission failed. Not the end of the world, but you don't get that kind of catastrophic failure of seals when a car is used regularly.Anyone who has owned and been around high end cars knows that’s a BS argument people stay away from very high mile performance cars and they drop like rocks if they are way over on miles and become money pits.

The engine in the 2012-13 B302 is the Roadrunner, but it's a derivative of the Coyote 5.0. Confusing, but think of it this way - the base engine is a Coyote with upgraded parts that make it a Roadrunner.I thought the Boss 302 engine was called Roadrunner, not Coyote.

It doesn't seem confusing to me. I just think they should have called it the correct name.The engine in the 2012-13 B302 is the Roadrunner, but it's a derivative of the Coyote 5.0. Confusing, but think of it this way - the base engine is a Coyote with upgraded parts that make it a Roadrunner.

The 2013 B302 for auction is a nice B302, but for me and personal preference, I just think the 2012 B302 front end (hood to nose cone) is more aggressive looking and more "retro" looking than the 2013. Drivelines, chassis and interiors are pretty much exactly the same between model years...
