I have no business posting here but I'm at 42K in my SC. haha. I don't know if this is relevant, but my LS430 has 163,xxx! The SC430 has been said to have one of the best engines in terms of reliability so I am sure, assuming we all take GREAT care of our engines, our cars will run even to 300,000+ miles!

Congrats on actually driving your ride. Any problems with the top or anything else?

No everything including the top works great, have a check engine light on that is prob a 02 sensor, upgraded the sub and going to upgrade front 6x9 speaker. From what i can tell, it has great maintenance by the records on all the fluids etc etc, but never had the timing belt done so at 150k and 8 yrs old... that is a priority i would say!

I'm at 31,000 miles now on my 2002, purchased in April of 2001. At this rate, I expect to turn 150,000 miles in 2044.
Catch me if you can.

Here is a similar post from a couple of years ago with other high mileage vehicles, which will be even higher now.
