Well today I joined the 200K club. This old Q is still running sweet (stayed with a 745i for ten miles on my morning race to work)....she goes for an early morning run of 45 miles at high speed 80-110mph and often higher. Then the same thing to come home. I let her rest on the weekends (Drive the wifes Q). Total Mobil 1 for the last 150K. Change oil every 4K, transmission at 20K, and Techron every 15K.
The drivers area is starting to show wear (seat starting to peel on the side and the rugs are looking ragged) but other than that she still looks good.
Amazing.... one of my favorite things is driving to and from work in an eleven rear old car.

Hey Eddie...good to see you are still hanging around and enjoying your Q!!! I am still lurking around as NICO is like a damn disease even though I have sold my Q45 6 months ago. See ya at Moroso again maybe...I am running the 69 vette often up there.

Hey Rob.....good to here from you. How"s that vette running? Maybe when it gets a little cooler I'll make it up to Moroso.......the Q is ready tune up , after that we'll see if it can still do it. My son got a Mazdaspeed 6, he may want to check it out also.
