Default Buying my first RRS!

Hi there,

I'm currently in the research phase and really want to buy a used RRS with the Supercharged engine. I currently drive a 2013 Ford Explorer Sport. Love the car, but it's time for a change. I am currently set on test driving the following 3 RRs, and am curious if anyone has strong opinions on things like Mileage and carfax / ownership history.27k_13_78k_tires unknown_brake pads and rotors replaced recently_water pump replaced

26k_13_84k_new tires_pads and rotors replaced multiple times

22k_12_102k_pads and rotors replaced multiple times

The 2012 has the highest mileage (102k) and four previous owners. That said, the 4-5k reduced price is significant for what amounts to a year older and 15-20k extra miles.

The 2013 (Second link) which has had brake pads and rotors replaced multiple times suggest to me that it was driven hard.

The first one seems like the best option. I'm going to test drive three of them and see how they drive. Any advice or tips for this process and what to look for in an out of warranty RRS would be very much appreciated!

I'd suggest with any car, lowest miles and best service records are the way to go, these all seem high miles and I'd be wary of electronics and air suspension.
