Very cool. Have you had to do any major repairs to be able to put on that many miles?

The only major repair was a transmission a 150k and a steering rack at 145k. The steering rack was from an accident though so I don't think that will count.

Wow, sounds really reliable, that is a keeper. I agree, don't count the steering rack.

Yeah my car is my daily driver. I thought about selling it and getting something practical, but I love this car way to much. I guess it is first car love!

i'm at 170k and i had to replace the steering rack, so anyone who is coming close to our high mileage may want to keep that in the budget. i've also replaced the motor and trans, ohh- and ECU, but that was only $180.
