i just thought I'd share...

The car is in the parking lot and I just noticed before getting out that the odometer is at 99,963! I cant believe i've put 5k on it in such a short amount of time! I love this car

And I'm happy to report that the original tranny is in excilent shape *knock on wood*

eh, that's good to hear. Yeah I've really been putting the miles on mine lately. I can't tell a difference between 93 and my 91 (87 + 2 * 93) octane mix either

It seems like if you can get the tranny to go past 80-90,000 or so, you're set.

Congratulations, Everclear! I remember when mine turned over 100,000, it was . . . uh . . . oh, no I don't. It had 109K on it when I bought it.

Okay, so, I'll probably celebrate my 200K anniversary in the near future. Lemme see, I'll have had the car three years in August. It'll probably be at 180K by then. At an average of 80 miles per day, and a total of around 24K per year, which is about 2K per month, I'll reach 200K by . . . October 1st.

Kermit hit 130,000 today as I was leaving Evansville after lunch with the President (W). How sweet it is.

Mine's holding, because it's in the body shop!!!
Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
Saw her today, wish I hadn't.
Not nice to see a lady naked.
Will be much nicer in about a week.

Thanks, again, for lunch Steve. Funny thing: One of my co-workers returned from lunch and said, "I just saw a dark green SVX on highway 41." I said, "that would be the guy I just had lunch with." He said, "Do you know EVERYBODY who owns a car like yours?" I said, "Practically everybody."

Congrats on 130K!

Congrats!

I remeber my 100K milestone. I was pretty excited but, the 200K milestone is a lot more exciting. Hope you hit it.

If my calculations are correct, I will be at 222,222 right around the 10th anniversary meet.

I remember when i hit 100,000k miles. I was driving up the "Alcan" from Washington to Alaska. It was crazy. I wanted to take a picture but when it crossed over i was so excited that i woke my mom up just to show her that she just hit 100,000k. WOW, brings back memories.

I have been a faithful SVX driver for 10 years now and I have never turned over 100,000 miles.

But I will say that I have over 200,000 on my other Subaru GL (Helga) and it runs like new (I just wish she looked like new)
Congradulations!!!! I hope that you get many more miles .
