I have a 97 with 80,200 miles on it. This car is still just awesome the way it performs

wrenchturner · 10-21-2004, 06:02 PM

2001 That had 16000 on it when I bought it this spring. SItting with 25000 just flipped on it now. I love driving this car.. The miles are sure to climb up fast in the summer. Parked all winter will help to keep the milage down though. No problems and all is awesome.

Here's my chime.

I'm a few days from turning 140,000 on my 96 Mystic.
Yes, Mike you need get out and drive your damn car. Some people...

Ah..I knew you would chime in eventually! It might get dirty if I take it out...

Oh..that's an idea..charge people $20.00 to drive it! Then I can make the payment on it!

Okay if there is nice weather this weekend..I am in the car..unfortuantely..they are calling for rain..maybe next week.

Oh I forgot..my other Cobra has 70,000 miles..and has seen lots of things..well at least for it's first few years..

My 1999 Cobra was purchased about 6 weeks ago and had 6100 miles on it, it now has just under 6300 miles and is now in the my garage waiting for spring breakup! I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner traded it for a Corvette...can you believe that? The 2nd owner had it for 4 years and put about 2100 miles on it, he sold it because he's a young father and it's not a real practical car in Alaska, but he sure was sad to get rid of it! He never had any problems with it but it is barely broken in. Hopefully she'll stay heathly for many years to come!

ausie · 10-24-2004, 10:44 AM

I had put 31k on the 01 I traded in. It suffered from pinging (severe) at around 16k miles. I fixed that issue with a new EGR valve. I recently added an oil separator on the PCV line two days before I traded it in. The only warrenty issue I had with it was the driver side window motor stopped working with the window down.

The 04 now has close to 1300 miles on the clock. Other than the occasional shifting attitude the car is fun to drive. First car I ever owned that had more miles on the tires than the odometer (kept the BBS RK plasmas that were on the 01, 10k miles and barely any tread left in the rear but they still hook up good on a clean and dry surface).

BlownMystic · 10-24-2004, 11:39 AM

42,100 on mine , mostly 1/4 mile at a time

redsnake99 · 10-24-2004, 03:50 PM

My 99 has 117,000 miles on it, 90,000 with the Vortech blower on it. It's my daily driver, drag car, open track car, show car, parade car. Just ran the Autocross at Maryville, TN and the Dragon Run this past weekend.

Also have 96 Explorer Limited with 212,000 miles, a 91 Mustang LX convertible with 211,000 miles on it and a 98 Land Rover with 101,000 miles on it. Yes, we drive a lot and tend to keep cars a long time.
