Question help buying a sc300

I’m looking at a 1995 sc300 5 speed with 173k on it I want to put some upgrades in it but don't know if it has too many mile
173k is not that much I know people that have much more this is my first thread and I could not find any other threads about this so any help will be nice thanks.

Depends on the maintenance and condition of your current engine. I know of someone who is boosted with over 300k on their motor and it runs fine. Then there are people like me who have stock GE's that run like dog snot even though we pour money and love into our cars. If the price is good, just buy it, rip it all apart, clean everything, replace almost everything, and it will be fun. If you have no mechanical skill run like hell and finance a new car.
