Bought my '06 new in June 2007 drove it for one winter and stored her last winter. I have 55,000km on it now! Had a few electrical issues, but they seem to be all sorted out now.

Wow... I have 115,000Km on mine, got it in November at 95,000Km...

I will be putting my truck on the road for driving to work (40Km each way) and Winters.

No Issues besides a weird rattling that started on Saturday at ~3000RPM... hope its just ice buildup...

2004 with 37,000km. She just survived her first, and quite possibly last, winter. Bought it last October with 25,000km.

Hasn't needed any repairs but I've slugged a few g's worth of aftermarket into her.

04 vr GT. It has exactly 39k on it and is running great. By the way, when I go WOT from first to second, do any of you guys get massive wheelhop. I know my tires suck and all, but I shouldn't be burning second gear for 2 seconds... Unless I have a healthy rx-8

114 000km 2004 stored for the winters. new engine which all it needed was new coils. new transmission grinded 4th-5th, new clutch. new starter think its impossible to flood with this starter. replaced the cat and about to replace it again. hit a raccoon and a rabbit both times i had to buy a fog light bracket under tray and inner fender/mud guard and an ac condenser four sets of brake pads, just bought 4th set of tires.
i love this car. debating getting a first gen 7 to keep me busy but now realizing my 8 keeps me busy enough.
