whats the highest mileage 240 you guys have seen? My car just rolled over 160k miles and my SR is going on 60k... I know that probably not even close to the highest though.

Hit 180,XXX miles on a 92 coupe. Not the nearly the highest, but engine still very strong. Throw out bearing just went, 2nd gear and 3rd gear syncros wearing, and timing chain noise, and buying it used still has a small odor.

Still fun to drive.

My 90' has 208,XXX miles on it and still runs strong. Automatic sure sucks the power out though. Whoever designed that transmission should be shot! 5spds should have been the only option blah
