how many miles are on your 8?

i was curious to see how many miles people have put on their 8s and about how long you have owned it. ive had mine for for close to 10 months and it had 1500 test driven miles on it when i purchased it. im now at 11,741 miles. i live in wisconsin and store it in the winter.

I bought mine with 4 miles on it and just hit 7400. I've had it 7 months with 2 months in the shop. Live in Texas and drive it every minute I can!

Yes, there are plenty, but I thought I'd entertain theman and answer his question.

Got mine in feburary of 2004. Have 10,500 on odometer. Never changed tires, so I do not use it in winter. However, the miles are gonna start pouring on to give the STI a rest (put 16000 miles on it in 9 months). No doubt I'll be trading it in before 4 years or 50k miles, praying a better and faster rx8 comes out. Please mazda!!! Make a 300hp AWD RX8 convertible, so I can do a double trade in and have a car that looks sweet, is very fast, and can be as practical as my STI.

Had it since June of last year. Just passed 4500 miles. Some might be amazed...others might say it's pathetic. I drive it as much as I can. This summer it'll get a lot more road action. Just been really busy this year. I probably haven't even broken it in entirely. :D
