That's easy. I only have 42k on mine.

But seriously, good job. I haven't seen any that high before. My high was 145k on my white '94 6M (not even close to yours)

My 85 with 48,000 miles is one year newer than your 84. That explains why I have 271,000 miles less than yours. Wow!! 319,000 miles. You must take very good care of it. Everyone says these cars were meant to be driven. Your 84 is proving them right!

I've most likely put well over 600k+ on 14 corvettes C3 thru C5 over the last 39 years.

It's not the mileage that counts it's how you use it. That's what the chicks say.

I've had 9 corvettes over the last 30 years, and combined driving, I can't top that. ballpark estimate, a little over 200K.

17,750 miles on my 95 C4 & 22,800 on my 99 C5. I have quite a few years of driving before I catch you. Hope I live that long :-)

My 88 C4 has about 154,000. Based on my Camaro with the 350 engine which has over 275,000 miles on it, I expect the Vette to make it much past 200K. Of course, it could blow any time especially if rode really hard so probably depends on how one drives and how well you keep up the maintenance.

I just yesterday watched 32000 on my 1993, I never spin the tires but I know it can, so I am wishing 300,000.

I can see why if I knew how much fun and how good they drive. I just bought my Corvette I like it.
