100,000+ mile club!!

Im at 60k now and approaching 100k miles fast. Just want to see if there are any LNF out here that are modded that are past 100,000 miles and how the engines are holding up.

67,000 on mine. And I don't care about resale value. Might as well keep it.

I'm just trying to save on my mileage so I can do the EFR upgrade with low miles on my engine. I have an '08 with 19.8K miles. I drive a '91 Civic Hatch as a daily. My thought on the matter has always been, if you're going to put a crapload of miles on something, put them on a beater and drive your good car on the weekends. I paid $800 for my Civic and put about $300 into it to get it reliable with no oil leaks. It doesn't have A/C, but who cares?

This is the first winter with a beater... I drove the Cobalt yesterday though, so it still gets driven.

In late March/early April ish I hit 30k. This is the first summer I was active with car stuff, so put 18k on in 8 months. Racks up quickly driving up to GLD in WI every week for Ladies Night. Whoops.

Resale value? Haha, I bought my car not to sit thinking, o man I can't drive this much due to the resale value. Rain sleet or snow, my cavy has 130,000 miles on it, been sc since 07 and runs great. Just my own way of thinking

I have 73K on my G5. I dont drive it everyday because i work to close to my house the car would not even have enough time to warm up to temp before i get to work. I use it when i travel out of state thats pretty much it. It also sits all winter. so pretty much its a garage queen. I put all the around town miles on my 98 cavalier that has 171k on it
