A V6T with 11k miles at the dealer could be a car from rental company auctions. Not exactly the best way to spend a car's first 10k miles. For the price of such a car (around $30k), I would rather go for a fully loaded brand new I4T, which has better weight distribution, less crowded engine bay, and better upgrade potential; more importantly, you can get the new I4T at low interest throug the lease incentive, which can be combined with the discount. The interest discount is good for at least couple three thousand over three years; you can always buy out at the end. '99 I4T only had 170hps, which may be a little too low for some with an automatic if you choose a wagon. Also the '99 I4T does not have the additional oil spraying in the cylinder that has been incorporated since the '00 model in order to accommodate Aero's high pressure turbo; something to think about if you are interested in upgrades down the road.
