Is 116,000 miles too many for a dodge charger srt8

My car has 116000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.

Hi Karon. Thanks for contacting us tonight. 116,000 miles for any vehicle that is less than six-years-old is quite a bit. However, as long as it has been properly serviced, not involved in accidents or driven exceptionally hard, it could be a good vehicle to purchase. If you are considering a purchase, you should probably have a professional mechanic complete a pre-purchase car inspection.
