01 S, hit the 100K mark June of 2013. Just topped 113K this weekend. I'm the 4th owner, so I don't know if there was an IMS upgrade. Clutcch seems fine, so I'm speculating it was replaced not many miles before my purchase.

I am at 111 ish on my 98. Plan on having this car for awhile. Don't see any reason to get rid of it even after having my first baby in April . That is why my wife has a family SUV.

2000 S. Crossed 100K in May. Cost me a boat load to get here so I guess I'm in for another 100K.
Even if I buy a new car it just doesn't make sense to sell now. Just had both bumpers re-sprayed for the umpteenth time, new top with glass will be going on soon.



I'll be ripping out the carpeting and going with dark grey instead like this
(but my center console is silver like the exterior)

Getting ready to hit 150k very soon. I've known the car since 80k, and have owned it since 130k. Except for a clutch flywheel replacement and valve cover leak repair, everything else has been minor or wear and tear. Just got a new water pump and tires, so expecting to make good use of them in the next 50k miles.

June 21st, 2015, I crossed that threshold. I only take mileage pictures if they are palindromes though.

I'm at 120k or thereabouts now. Swapped the cluster out a while back and didn't remember to write down all the numbers.

Kinda doesn't matter though. The only pieces on my car not replaced are the sub frame and half the body panels! Seriously!

I'm at about 111,550, but I just bought the car recently, it's a 99. I don't drive my cars much though except my daily driver. When I sell them though I regret not driving them more, seems like a waste of them just sitting in the garage.
