In my signature is a pic of her. She has 559375 miles, 230,000 of them are mine (i bought her in mid 2007). But still goin strong!!! She has the very underpowered 2.0L with 71 BHP (ran a dyno in january) but I dont care. She is my baby and no I REPEAT NO ONE!!! will take her from me! She has got a habit of not starting tho, and blowing the distributer but what can i say!? shes got over 500,000 miles. As you can see she is a imported right hand drive model. I love her to bits! I would like to hear ye'r replies :) p.s sorry if the sig pic is a little big.

Wow... That right there explains 3geez.com

71 at the wheels is really good for 500k+, the factory ratings are at the flywheel, so you're not too far off.

What trim is that? DX, LX, LXI?

They are cheap engines to get. Get yourself an 88-89 LXI block and you will have a little more power as well.

If that car has 500,000 miles on it then you have done a supreme job at keeping the body in good shape. It looks nicer than my 130k car. Way to go keeping it on the road that long, hope mine makes it there someday.
