Just hit 200,000 this past week. At 200,137 right now. Running pretty well. No major repair in the last 50,000 miles. Original owner. Hopefully it'll last till 250K or maybe 300K. Who knows?

I'm nearing 200k on the chassis. The suspension needs some work. I'm getting new shocks, brakes and tires. I'm afraid that the power steering rack is going to go in the next year or so.

I guess I should also reply to his question on what you can do at that time so...Make sure all the fluids are changed...So many people forget to change the anit freeze, the rear dif? Brake fluid?Complete tuneup if it hasn't been done...Make sure she is in proper tune before adding modz...As you can see these cars are VERY reliable...So take care of her and she will take care of you!:)

i just crossed into the good ol' 236,xxx region. She's got some wear and tear everywhere, but runs great still. Somethings i've noticed throughout the miles are: The Heat sheilds underneath will rattle and slowly drive you insane. The screws all around the dash do come loose and cause some unwanted interior noise, hunt them down and tighten those up. The rear hatch will start to leak after some time. to fix that just remove your taillights and re-apply the black weather sealer goo. The rusty hatch (get rid of your wing) if you have a wing and no rust, get rid of it before the rust comes. If you like wings, fine, get another one. Fixing the rust on my hatch was one of the most tedious things i've done yet. Besides paint fade and the mysterious next morning bumps and dents, the car is doin' alright.

230K on a '93. Slight chain rattle at idle. All original - even suspension & clutch. Bought it to autocross, but it's become my daily driver.
