My father's got a 92 LS, 240,000, only thing to break sense he bought it 5yrs ago with 100,000, besides sensor's and things like that was the water pump. These things are magic, my sc's got 160,000 and I push it hard every weekend on the streets, no probs!!!

Yeah these cars are strong because i always push my SC. 85mph is my normal but my car see's 100mph on a regular. I mean regular, like every other day if not more. I will keep this car for ever. Run it till it just won't go anymore. My very favorite car
