good job hitman , the big deville crossed 115k last weekend , and she did it leak free , but it took alot of work to get the big slobberin GM beast to stop slobbering

damned digital dash takes all the drama away of rolling over one mintue its 99999.9 the next its 100000.0

gas gauge is worse i swear i never get to see "F" for longer than 30 minutes

My car did this less than a month ago. "Final Countdown" by Europe started playing at 99,998 randomly on my stereo and ended right at 100,001 (I was in a residential area at the time).

I have some pictures at 100,000, but they suck because I was turning, shifting, and trying to take the picture on a bumpy road so you can't see it well :(

Congrats to Quella AZ! May many more miles come!

Very cool Reno.

Diamond, that was approx halfway into the throttle, so the RPM's are elevated somewhat above normal. Cruising @85 = 2200 rpm's (or so).

Just an oil change - I don't rely on mileage to do the maintenance, I do it well before it's due.

Can't think of anything she'd need (that hasn't been done in the past 6-12 months).

ooo 100k, i'm almost up to 130k (maybe i'll take a pic of 130k at 130mph...hmm, maybe not). the second pic would have been better if you had kicked it down to 2nd, going the same speed.

I tried to run her up to 100 for the 100K picture but it's damn hard to navigate heavy rush-hour traffic at that speed with a camera sitting on the steering wheel... :D

I can't imagine what the officer would think if you told him why you were going 100mph if you were pulled over.

Congrats Greg,

She has waay to many miles left in her to even consider this a dent ;) but it's an awesome milestone nontheless. And, by the way, why are you 130k and 180k'ers even trying to make this a contest. :)

I saw a 1990 Maxima last year with 288k, GREAT shape, clean body, had LOTS of power, for $1500. I went to buy it and it was gone. :(

This maxima I found is a 1985 model, black, 5-speed and a little factory spoiler. Quite possibly one of the neatest looking old maximas I have ever seen.
