Dang Lambert, I thought I drove a lot. Where the heck are you driving :)

as for me, purchased Oct 8, 2003 @ 8:34am EDT. Currently @ 64,563 miles

Picked up March 26, 2006. 1260 miles.

I continue to beat everybody else for the LOWEST miles / age title... purchased November 7th 2003, today I've got only 6600 miles on the car.
If I continue with this pace, I won't wear out the 50K miles warranty period in the next 20 years... pity that this period expires after 4 years :)

08/2003 with a little under 42,000 miles.

Lambert (the sheepish lion) - if you've seen the cartoon
Any major problems at 100k? Like major engine problems.

8/13/05 9,500 as for the people with 6k miles i like to drive mine :)

I like to drive mine too - when I'm not traveling for business. Unfortunately, nowadays that's rather rare for me.

bought july 2005 17,500 miles

so how about you high mileage folks mention what problems (if any) you've had and at what point?

^^^ Yes, I'd like to know if the high mileage people have had any major problems with the car yet. I hope this one doesn't turn out like the FD.

64,000 miles, and I track my 8 also

Oil Pan TSB. 4K
Water in left taillight. 40K
Two minor recall’s. 8 / 2005
Small leak in an oil cooling line. 30K

I get 20 MPG and have never flooded.

THATS GOOD TO KNOW, ANY MAJOR TROUBLE?

Oh, and I have 6,800 miles and no problems. Except some water in the right taillight and of course the other minor issues. (rattles, brake squeal)
