Hit another milestone this week. Still no top end work. The car still is running strong. I haven't had the Blizzaks on the past 2 winters as I have a BMW 335XI for winter travel. How many others are in the 200k club?

Love to hear it!

I drove an Audi(Coupe Quattro) for 13 years and 276k miles before getting rid of it...probably should have held on to it considering how rare they were, and how it was modded-let alone how little $$ I got for it.

I drove that car everyday, in every kinda condition. It was autocrossed, Club rally'ed, ice raced, and taken to track days. It remains my single most loved(and hated) car I have ever owned.

I'm hoping my C4S proves to be "more" reliable, I know it'll be more fun. I'll miss the winter time antics for now, as it's just too nice to put in those conditions now.

Nice to hear the no top end work done statement too. I've driven my C4S almost 3k miles, and have religiously watched oil consumption. In the back of my mind, I'm still worried about something going wrong-the old "its too good to be true" scenerio ya know.

Did I really buy such a solid car for such a reasonable price?

So, a measly 66K miles and climbing daily here.

Amazing! Would be nice to see the list of work that was done during those 200K miles.

97 turbo had 245K but then check engine...would not pass smog.

swapped in a turbo s engine with 6K miles...now at 258K...better than new

Fantastic Rich and MSW! I'm working on trying to catch you with my DD (E30 325is w/221K miles) but still have a ways to go. There's something about making a fun high mileage car last that's really satisfying.

Cheers,
Joe

Wicked! Someday I'll be there... I'm only at 133k km. My last dd was a '92 gti. Ran it up to 335k km. It,also, was loved (and hated).

My 993 is way behind, but I have over 205k Miles on my 968.

Love people driving thier cars much more than 10k mile cars that have not been loved (and enjoyed).

It has 160,000 miles, have only replaced one tail light. A headlight is getting a little shaky, but that's it. Just got back from a road trip from SFO to Paso Robles, about 200 miles...got 46 mpg (I think there was a tail wind) I usually average about 42 mpg, on cheapo gas.

When this sucker dies, I am getting another Prius...great little cars with plenty of room inside.

I have 71k on the clock. Im sure if I didnt work from home, I'd have a lot more miles on it. Over the past 7 years, I put 37k.
