Default The Mileage Thread (not MPG)

Im kind of curious...ALOT of us have some cars that are getting up there in age. Unfortunately that 2001 GS or LS in your driveway is 8 years old now. Hard to believe i know. Having been here for a hair shy of 4 years now, I am really curious as to the mileage the average CL driver has on their cars.

Here comes my total mileage figures on all my cars i have and have had in the past (im doing this for giggles and s****. If you dont want to list past ones, thats fine, Ill take current ones). As for the poll, that is for your current car only please. Lets keep this thread going, Maybe sticky it Dave?

1995 Ford Contour GL: (2.0L DOHC Zetec I-4/ 5spd manual)-384,992 miles.

1990 Lexus ES 250: (cloth interior)-157,xxx miles.

2002 Ford ZX-2: (2.0L DOHC Zetec I-4/ 5spd manual loved that car 12.426@118mph, ~270fwhp/260 FWTQ, engine built by ME )-74,xxx Miles.

2005 Toyota Matrix XR AWD: 44,000 miles and the rear diff took a dump.

2006 Honda Civic EX: (see sig) 36,xxx miles.

and my beater (AKA the batmobile) is currently my 1996 Chevy Cavalier LS. Its an auto, and suprisingly, 152,000 miles without incedent *knocks on wood*.

You dont have to go as in depth as I did, like i said, I am simply curious. I always wondered about these guys like JeffTsai who have pimp-a$$ cars, what there mileage is.

'99 Legacy: 106,000 miles. I think the problems I am having have more to do with age rather than mileage.

AMEN!!! The price was right only $3,000 with a so called "blown engine" $7,000 repair we were told. Drove it a bit and took it to Ford change all fluids they called up blown coil pack. Now it runs like new.
