Oh and a new shift boot (the old one had essentially rotted away) and shift **** (beyond "smoothed by the hands of time"... more like worn down to the nub).

A little rust behind the right-rear wheel, and some rust spots are developing on the roof between the sunroof and windshield, but nothing too major yet...

I just did my safety inspection but she failed...needs new front brakes (no biggie) and a completely new exhaust (original is the definition of "rusting to pieces"). Gonna go get to work here soon.

Still runs like a champ though. Did 130 mph about a year ago only 3 miles after it hit 330,000. Hopefully many more miles to come!!

Sweet! another 300k+ maxima...are we the only ones at the moment? (on the forum at least?)

Don't have a 4th gen anymore I have a 5.5 Gen. But when I sold my 98 Se 5 speed it had 159k. Basic bolt on's (I/H/E). Sold it for 5400. The kids I sold it to called me a month later and blew the motor. He was traveling 90 mph and shifted into 2nd instead of 4th. My heart broke. That car was perfect in and out...... These motors will go forever...

I've only put about 12k on it so I don't know how it was treated before.
But I did have to replace the clutch within a week of buying it

Wow really why so low
??

Did you buy it new used? or are you a sunday driver?

Just kidding congrats on being so low-millaged ... That gives me an idea, we should start a 4th gen thread ... "Lowest miles on a 4th Gen." I really wonder who here has the lowest miles on their ride. ...

To columbianmax. 313k that is great, hope to see her at 500k. btw anyone know what the highetst (any generation) millage maxima? I would have to assume at least 400k? Anyone with proof?

'97 GLE - 201,500

I've had it since '06 with about 160k. Worst part is my ex was driving it while it turned over the 200k. She considered it nbd while I was devastated that I missed the achievement of my white pony.

Its my first car and I plan to keep for the next 100k. Also, I've been having a few problems but ill search before I rant. Good to be here.

(Please don't mind the color posting, I do it on every forum I post on)
