Here's a nice TTA.

I am highly suspicious of these low mileage cars anymore. Turns out a very low mileage TTA sold in my area (I think 1100 miles), then an acquaintance of the original owner told the new owner he disconnected a wire connected to the tranny (which would make it have no speed reference or clock any miles on the OD). This has gone to litigation.

In addition, the two low milage TTA’s I bought (under 15K) both had issue because of their long slumber. Give me a driven TTA anytime!

Mine has just over 8,100 miles and although its in almost perfect shape. Its still leaks oil, and the rear hatch took a dump. So I agree. I wish I would have spent a little less, and bought one I would drive more.
 
I was going to buy that 102 mile car last year, it had only 100 miles then, I agree'd to pay 41K but I found one for less, with 1000 more miles. Both very nice cars though.

This is my concern. My friend has one with 8K miles and he owned it from 89. Car has not moved in 7-8 years. I am still questioning if I should by it. Car is mint.

...well here's my 2 cents. I agree that a car needs to be moved! A car that's been driven 1,000miles a year (20yrs=20,000mls) is more valuable than a 100mile car... in the sense that it probably won't have the sitting issues and problem the low mile cars often have.
 
I KNOW SOMEONE WITH A 25 MILE CAR NEVER DRIVEN, I JUST COULD NOT SEE SPENDING ALL THAT MONEY AND NOT ENJOYING SUCH A GREAT CAR.
MY CAR HAS 81000 NOT PERFECT BUT I THINK THATS WHY I ENJOY DRIVING IT SO MUCH. THE DRAG RADIALS KICK ROCKS ON THE 1/4'S AND IT ONLY BOTHERS ME A LITTLE BIT. I'M GLAD THERE IS SOME PEOPLE THAT DO THIS SO WE CAN SEE WHAT ORIGINAL WAS.
