Congrats Rick. She's a looker. Amazing how long and how well these cars run and maintain their beauty.

Very nice. Which wheels are you using? I have M parallels as well.

Thanks guys.

Ahlem, third photo is my summer setup with BMW/BBS Style 42 Comp II 18" staggered wheels. M-Parallels are my winter setup with Blizzaks.

Rick,
Mine is now 226,000 and climbing at a rate of about 14,000 per year. Have owned since January 2003. No plans to sell/trade.

Hey Russell. How are you? Hope everything is well. Congrats on 226,000! These cars are strong runners. She has been extremely reliable during my ownership and never left me stranded. I have no plans to sell or trader either. :)

Looking to hit 400,000 miles sometime this Summer. Unfortunately I'm seeing a bit of aging on mostly bolt on parts. Mine looks no where as nice as yours. I still drive it on 1000+ mile business and college kid pick up trips. Probably the best all around car I've owned, especially with the 5 speed and good mechanical care by two PO's and Mobil 1 15w50 for most of it's life.
