Perhaps they're shell-shocked by all the oil problems

I can recommend first-hand against NG900s and any 4-cylinder 9-5 prior to the 2004 model year.
These were plagued by severe sludging problems, and in non-turbo variants, a tendency for the balance shaft sprockets to wear, and send debris through the oil pump, killing the engines.
This happened to me just a matter of weeks ago. I would particularly recommend against one with mileage as high as that.
Nice cars to drive, but way too risky.
