700,000 plus mile C5
https://jalopnik.com/extremely-corve...rve-1820374377
Mark purchased this C5 Corvette brand new in 1999. Living in Florida and commuting to Georgia nearly daily, he has racked up over three quarters of a million miles of Corvette driving. That averages out to just under a thousand miles a week for 18 years. This is pretty serious mileage by anyone’s measure. |

Saturday me and my wife stopped at the NCM and that vette was on display in the front by the store. It had a few rough spots but was overall in good condition.
