140k miles on a 2009 dodge avenger?

Question

I'm looking to purchase my first car, and was just browsing some car sales websites.. there's a place selling a really nice looking 2009 avenger, 140k miles, for $7000. It looks from the interior that there are no scratches, dents, anything out of the ordinary. looks beautiful inside and out, and i'm thinking that maybe it was owned by someone who drove on the highway a lot(i may be wrong though).

should i consider this car? i'm not sure how well dodge vehicles are put together, or how long something like that would last. anyone have any idea??

An average car get driven 15,000 miles a year, a high miles car 20,000 miles, but that car is barely 5 years old with 140,000 which is 28,000 miles a year. I would be scared of that much driving in such a short time.

I mean are there complete and detailed maintenance log or records , if not walk away.

overpriced. Most cars dealers sell are not properly classified as excellent condition. They want you to believe that.You could take the same car to them to appraise and at best they  would say just "good" condition.Which can make a big difference in prices. You trade in a car for example with 140.000 miles on it and they tell you they cannot give much for it cause its got high mileage, BUT, they will sell you one with that or more miles and tell you it is LOW  mileage.  ITS A RACKET!

Avengers are decent cars, they have their problems but they're usually minor. I'd be more concerned about the $7000. Seems really over priced to me.
