YEAH BUDDY!!! Guess I'm part of the 200K club now! I wanted to take this pic with the speedo at 160 mph but the opportunity never lent itself.

Sweet! I was afraid this was a post that ended with you crawling out of a window with the car upside down!

Looks far more appropriate at 80MPH than my parking lot shot in Q1 last fall.

Welcome to the 200K club!! You'll find seating arrangements and decore more to your liking now as well as the morning coffee.... and I think the band is playing your song.

Congratulations. Very few cars of even the best makes will be on the road that long, much less running near as good as yours. NICO should have a 200K club license plate frame for the occasion. How many years and how many miles of the total did you drive it to get there?

Rock on!

The Maxima's coming up on 210 thousand miles. Cars like ours are why I can't understand paying $30k+ for a brand new car.

My 85' Maxima got to 294k and died, I so wanted that 300k but didn't want to even know what went wrong. 200 takes some doing to still like the car, glad you're car wasn't flipped, I thought that too!

I dunno Wes... My engine burns no oil (noticeably) between changes and she's running like she did when I first got her back in 98'. The transmission is JDM replacement with probably less than 60K and I have a bunch of new parts. Tell you what, I'll post again at 400K when I'm old and gray....

Glad it was your odometer that did the roll-over and not your car!

Drew,You scared everyone $hitless. Congrats on your milestone. I've got another 72K to go before I join you 200K guys. Is your temp gauge always at that halfway mark? I was just wondering if everyone's temp gauge is that high. Is it a 90-93 thing? Mine usually rests in between the 1/4 and 1/2 point mark.

Welcome to the club. I remember the day on my 93, it sticks in the memory like JFK getting shot, 911, stuff like that (no intended offense to anyone).
