10 yr and 274k, that's 27.4k per year, where did you go racking up that kind of mileage?
I bought my 03 brand new in 2003 and has only 39k
I take train to work though.

I'm pretty sure he passed 300K a while back honestly. He had well over 200K before the swap IIRC, and that was a LONG time ago.

176k

it was coddled...then destroyed...then coddled again (by myself) had a transmission replace in '06 by dealership under warranty.

and yea if the car can go to a million miles, then i would more than happily drive it to that level. though I think by 500k i'd want to do some manual tranny swap and whatnot..but i read the thread kris put up, i could NEVER do that myself :-(

I probably have the most lowest miles on a 1999 Acura 3.2TL-P. I have 88k. Bought the car when the mileage was 70k.
