'08 TL-S just hit 50k miles :(

Feels like I bought it yesterday it still feels new to me. But I guess that's reality Father Time is a bi$@&!

dafuq?

50k miles is still brand new.
Go out and drive more

p.s. I dont know why you want sympathy....most people have longer commutes and are at 100k on their 08's...

Stop crying and go drive more, She's still a baby. father time didnt even touch her yet....

does your car have any problems? If not, why does it matter what the odometer says? I rather have a car that has 100k miles and taken care of very well as opposed to a car with 50k miles but was used on the track and beaten on. mileage is only a number that helps when you are selling your car.
you get no sympathy from me.

edit: I put 50k miles on my car in the first 2 yrs I got the car...so based on your judgement I guess I gotta buy a new car every 2 years lol

you know father time has nothing to do with your 50k mileage....YOU drove it 50k miles, all time did was put 5 years of age on the car. so technically you are the bi$@&! since you put the miles on.

O NO! 50k miles?! better sell that car asap because the engine is gonna blow on your anytime now! it'll only be a money pit its gonna have so many problems. I have a couple friends with TL's who got lucky and hit 60k before their engines blew. Or sometimes the whole suspension will fall apart due to the age.

ROFL really? 04 6spd TL with 164000 miles. Been through road trips, auto cross, drags and daily driving. Not to mention salt snow and all that garbage that generally ages an otherwise pristine car! Really can't say that I would feel sad at 50K. Agreed its not a TLS but at least your car isn't now worth 6K on autotrader vs the 12 I paid in 2010. Thats what really made me cry!

109,000 here... Brought her with 42k miles in 09/06/10. I just put an Aspec Kit on her last weekend, getting my headlights done on Friday and will be ordering new rims and coilovers very soon. So OP your car is still a baby with plenty of life left, relax and go for a ride lol.

Mine just rolled over the 39k mark...22k of which have been since I bought it almost two years ago. My 4 mile commute has a lot to do with it, combined with the fact that it was 4 years old with 17k on it when I bought it.

Bought my 07 in Oct 2012 with 85k, I'm sitting at 103k right now. Bought an aftermarket warranty and had 5k done at the dealer and 4-5k in mods done. About to go get some new axles before my warranty expires, but she runs like new! Keep her maintained and she will run forever! I wish mine had 50k Guess I need to stop so much Then again, nahhhhhhh! Rock on OP, but you get no sympathy from us!
