Which 3.0L V6 engine does it have, the Duratech 24V or the Vulcan 12V? With that many miles, you'll want to have it professionally inspected. Make sure to have the suspension and transmission fluid inspected, as well as the condition of the coolant. If the car was well maintained, the condition of the fluids should show that and the car may give you a few good years of service. If the vehicle was not so well maintained, you'd be better off to go with something with fewer miles or that was maintained.
