Im thinking of buying a used 2001 Subaru outback. It has no damage, and has 90,000 miles on it.(Two old people owned it and they drove it to kentuky and other places.) It is $10,000. Is that too much for a 2001 with that many miles? Does anyone have any comments or suggestions of to get this car or not?

l say it is too much. Today you can but a brand new Outback for $20,000. Kelly Blue Book says a 2001 Outback with an Auto transmission sells for about $7200. That would be the maximum l would pay.

whatever car you buy have it checked out by a mechanic well worth the money

That is not too many miles for a Subaru, but you will need to put some work into it soon. The timing belt needs to be changed at about 100k and that is about a $500 job.
Go to kbb.com - look up the value of the car, take it to them and show them what it is worth, then offer $7,500 to $8,000.

A couple of things to consider. First, a dealer will always tell u the previous owners were old people. Might be true, might be a lie. l have a rule about car sales men. If their lips r moving, it is probably a lie. Another thing is the condition of the car depends solely on how it was maintained & old people r not the best when it comes to proper maintenance. 90,000 miles is really not a lot for these cars if they were maintained properly so make sure they have all proof of scheduled up keep & 90,000 is really close to timing belt time so if it has not been done, either have that included or lower the price because that costs close to $600 to have done. It is a great car that is reliable & with a great AWD system. Just make sure u see proof of how it was taken care of. As for the price, it is hard to say. That is way too much where l live but the price is different depending on where u live so even KBB is not that reliable. The only way to know is to check classifieds & forums to compare what they r selling for in ur area to see if it is fair.

The timing belt needs to be changed at 100k and that is about a $600 since you want to replace the water pump at the same time.
Go to Edmunds for the value of the car, take it to them and show them what it is worth, then offer $6,500 to $7,500.

That is pretty high. Kelly blue book says a 2001 outback basic no leather seats or options and is automatic with 90000 mile in good condition should be around 8,000 if being sold by a privet seller.
Go to kbb.com and look it up your self.
l think you can totally talk them down.
