Most Miles?
How many miles does everyone have on their LSJ motors? Maybe list your mods as well...
I am quickly coming to a crossroads as to either keeping my car or getting another new car.. I love the cobalt! But I am unsure about factory-boosted cars' longevity... yeah, yeah going easy on them makes them last longer, I know... but I'd like to look at some statistics. So, who has the most miles, guys?.. and girls lol

You should use the search button first, there are a lot of these threads. My mileage is at about 42k, its an 06, mods in my sig.
Instead of looking at the mileage on all of the cars, you should be thinking to yourself something along the lines of this. "Do I really like my car? Do I want to keep it through the good times and the bad? Do I want to work on it, or pay to have it worked on when something goes eventually? Do I want to buy a new car when it hits 100k, or rebuild my motor for only a couple grand?"
Those kinda questions will help you in the long run mate. I personally will keep my car forever. I bought and paid for my car myself and it really means something to me. If I have to rebuild the engine every 150k miles then so be it. I have had many cars that lasted in excess of 150k and some very good ones at that!
If you maintain a car, it will last! If you don't beat the **** out of it, it will last! If you beat on it, then the clock is ticking my friend.
