It all depends on how well it's been maintained and beaten and stuff.

Properly maintained and not beaten it could last another 100k+

well ya he has changed the oil and check everything, ever 3000 miles since 2004 i dont know be for that... but this car was used to get the guy to work because he worked 30min away from where he lived so most of the miles are free way i dont know if that would make a difference... but he tell me there is 3 leaks valve cover, rear transmission seal, and the oil pan gasket... i know there not bad leaks but would that mess up the motor at all even though he checks everything every 3000 miles... thanks...

Well every seller says they change the oil every 3000 miles. How much is he selling it for?

well he wants 2,500 but it has paint fade and some paint chipping, and the leaks. he said that he had to change because of the oil leak. i drove it today and all gears are smooth and it doesnt shake while on the freeway he let me get it to 90 and still no shaking...
