Well tonight on the way home from dropping a friend off in town my car hit 260,000. I didn't snap a pic as I didn't have my camera but as I sat at a light I got to see the 2 and the 60000 partially rolled and just stared as I rolled forward when the light turned green to make an even 260000.

Not bad for a car with the original engine and transmission, huh?

my 95 is almost at 240 w/original engine and trans.

holy crap. im only on 160 ish.

I'm at 195,666

I'm at 103k. I guess i'm gonna be driving the same old car for a while....

148xxx on my engine/chassis, 180xxx on the trans.
what is the highest mileage car you guys have ever driven? On my old 1973 volvo 145 the odo was stuck on 325xxx.

I don't think I've driven cars with over 150K on them.

My Legacy at 143k has the highest mileage of any car in my family.

154K on our '79 Ford Bronco
~109k on our 2000 Chrysler 300M
~24K on our 2003 Benz C240

260K on the 1993 Subaru
-same deal as Subyluvr

in the words of richard hammond from top gear..."subarus dont break, they just keep going and going"

i BOUGHT my car w/over 150,000 on it. bought it in december 98 w/154,000 on it for 6,500. when ones w/less miles wre going for almost twice as much.

havent spent one more dime on it than i would have spent on a car 60,000.

Sweet Sam. Finally got the 'ol girl broke in, huh?

Haha Matt, if it weren't for the fact that she has some skin cancer, lifter tick, and an exhaust from hell (or lack thereof) I'd say she were still brand new.

-edit: what would I know anyway? this car has gotten me into and out of so much in the year I've driven it, and even in years before, like my Mom coming home in the Blizzard of 95 under the snow, as in it was going up over the roof of the car but the Subaru just went through no problem. so many other stories.-

Got mine with about 160K, I'm almost to 180K.

my father-in-law's volkswagen beetle rolled to 454,ooo miles

he just kept putting better motors in when one would crap out, and you could see the road through the see-through fiberglassed floors

last I knew the car was still driveable, he died before the car did

I recently hit 150,000

nice. like the 555 too. smooth

And it happened on a rally.

I bought my 92 with 127K and in the three years I had it it made it to 210K. I traded it in and it was sold, so I assume it is still rollin' somewhere.
