Thanks, paint has held up well....
Always synthetic. I drive my car like a bat-outta-hell sometimes, keeping the RPMs in the sweet spot, holding the gears, so I need all the performance fluids I can get.....and I was extremely hard on my GS during the early years when I had the TC. But the engine still runs like a charm after all of these years (10 years old!).
Change your oil regularly, check your fluids regularly and always keep an eye on belts and leaks, and the GS will last a while. I'm hoping for 350,000 miles. (fingers crossed

Me too, would like to see 350k or 400k miles. I have been buying a new (used) car every 3 years or so mainly due to rust or due to just plain wore out. Haven't worn an engine or trans out, but sure have worn the interior and body out...
Well see! 142k miles and another 150k+ to go!
