To get to the point: I've found a Camaro 2SS at 140K miles for a little over $13,000 and it has no wrecks and a clean title. I'm wanting a V8 for sure so I am leaning toward the SS, but I'm unsure if I should buy a low mileage one for around 20K, or buy this high mileage cheaper one and just replace things and keep good maintenance on it?
This is my dream car after all so I want to make it last, but I also don't want to miss one with the write color, engine, etc that I want. It is a 2010 so it doesn't have some features I want like a backup camera, but I'm totally willing to add those features over time.

Mileage should not be an issue if the car was well cared for. I bought a 2013 SS/RS that was loaded with every possible option for 18K and 75K miles. I drive it 5,000 miles per year so at some point any one who has the same car with say 50K miles on it but drives is 10,000 per year will catch up to me mileage wise within about 5 years. So someone who buys a 140K miles and does not drive it very much is a different person who buys a 140K miles car only to drive the piss out of it. I say get what makes you happy for the money you want to spend and ignore the miles if the car is a cream puff.
