Are you the highest mileage gen pu on the forum ?

Aside from the transmission issue mentioned above, any other issues you guys are seeing, out of the normal maintenance realm ?

I gotta be. Just rolled 116k miles this week. I know there's a couple right behind me though.

Still no maintenance issues. I did break a seat bracket recently though. But that's cause of my fat ass and G's I put on it when racing. Just a random tack broke on the bracket.

Got mine august 2011 and just hit 42,000

[El_Diablo]

I'm still on track to do 20k a year, over 5k on it since I got it in October with 13k

Thank you kindly for the quick response. I would like to keep mine till Gen Three MS3 comes out.

I drive 48 miles on my highway commute to work every day. I would get another beater vehicle to drive, but this car is just too darn fun to drive! I am in the same boat as you with no mods yet. Post what you do to it in the future.

I'm a few weeks away from my 1 yr. mark and I just rolled 8,000 miles. And that's with the 1000 miles I put on it on my honeymoon. If the price of gas would calm the fuck down I might be more inclined to do some more late night cruises and day trips. I really need to get some tuning done and lean out my fuel trims. I know I'm wasting the fuck out of some gas....so, thanks for putting up with my random rant.

just broke 25,000 miles and I've had the car since November 2010...

I have about an 80 mile (roundtrip) commute up the mountain in the morning and down the mountain in the evening. I will not put near that many miles on the car though. Lots of the winter I drive my 4WD and lots of the good weather I split between the car and my motorcycle.

[zatara]

I just work from home, so there is no commute for me except from my bedroom to my office. If I didn't drive back and forth between NYC and Maine every couple of months I'd probably have a lot less in terms of miles too.

[Limeybastard]

7.7k miles bought in November 2012. Average 25k if not more a year. Will trade up when at 75k probably and get and STi. Lol zoids.

[L3THAL6]

I bought my car on Jan 26 2013, as of today I have 2950 miles.

113.5 miles per day which adds up to 42,000 miles per year D=

I have been taking a lot of trips recently though, normally I don't drive this much.

[90210]

^^^

Nice. Mikeasge should be seen as a badge of honor. 3 weeks I have driven 1550 miles.

I bought mine Jan 29,2013

[Ranyard]

got mine 27th of October of this year. at 3300 miles. so looks like I'll be at about 36k a year. anyone notice a drop in gas mileage after using t6?

[Switters]

Got mine in March, just rolled over 10,500. I've started to drive the wife's car though, 05 RSX auto, 30 mpg.

[El_Diablo]

I ended up doing 18k in a year. My driving ended up decreasing somewhat.

If you figure an average speed of 38mph which is what my screen typically lands on thats over 470 hours that I spent in my car last year or over 19 and a half days! Jeez....

[BigBoostMS3]

I've put 30k on my car since march of this year... been driving a ton commuting to school.

Damn!!!! I thought I was bad. Bought mine in august with 25 miles and I'm at 6k right now!

Well, how have those miles treated you? Any serious issues or all mods and maintenance?

I'm impressed

[El_Diablo]

I love the low mileage guys because that just means I'll still be able to find a low mileage car if I ever want another MS3 or an MS6, lol.

[Cujo]

@beachshoer what are you at now?

[daafisch]

Bought mine April 31st with 300 miles, passed 20k on my way home last night...stupid 50 miles commute.

[usgiorgi]

I did 17.5K last year. However that's down from 32K a year I was doing past few years from commuting to work and school. 50miles each way. I did 10k miles in a little over 2 months with my volvo.

Holy skittlez... The most I put on a car is about 8-10k a year. I look at resale first and foremost if Im gonna be using a car to drive everywhere its gonna be a beater not something I plan on getting rid of later

[Koke382]

I don't plan on reselling ive put too much effort into my car to sell. Plan to be an old man boostin in an old ms3

Had mine a little over a month, about to hit 2000 miles. Bought it with about 300 miles on it, trying to slow it down a bit though

[PUGENE]

Rolled 40k a week or two ago...bought it in March of 2012 w/ 13.5k miles.
