Damn i thought that mine had a lot (155k) but i guess not. These are strong motors the only problem is that the tranny might not last that long. I already had to get my 5spd rebuilt but its running stronger and better then when i bought it. Im taking it down to FL for spring break, this is the first long trip more 300 miles that she has been thru so we'll see how its gonna hold up.

yeeeshhh.... the water pump thing scares me, I have to replace mine this weekend as it has been slowly failing. But at 166k she runs and looks great, so hopefully she'll see that mileage.

Wow that's a lot of miles, the interior of that car is very clean especially knowing that it's 11 years old.

yeah i saw that one the other day, and i was about to post it up, but i figured someone would have had 360k on a 4th gen already, considering my mom's 2k has almost 215k...

Looks like it could be a donor car for the manual tranny and leather. I wonder how long the transmissions last in these cars.

^Then again, there's also the issue of shipping... but I agree, would be a geat candidate for a 3.5. Only problem is... I'd want the 3.5 to go into my newer Max.

I have a '95 SE 5-spd with 450,000km (apprx 270,000 miles), had the tranny rebuilt a few years ago but the clutch is original. Right now it's got an exhaust leak which will be fixed & the clutch cyclinder needs rebuilding. Other than that the Max is still strong.

Thats almost 580,000km....and it could probably be fixed and run mint again.
I'm at 217,000 now on the original tranny, and clutch...i wonder how long mine will last.

96 with 137k on mine. it comforts me to know that people still realize the badassed-ness our vehicles have. I've paid mine off and plan to drive it till the bolts deteriorate!

Also, aren't the 95-96's classics now? I thought the rule was ten years. ??

Damn that is a lot of miles. My 98's got 80k and it seems to be running pretty smoothly.
