I'm jealous. I've only been able to put 10k miles on mine.

Let's see a pic of that 100k car.

It's definitely nice to see people who drive them! I bought mine used and the previous owner only put 32k on it from early 1998 to summer 2004. Since I picked it up on August 7th, I've added almost 11k to it! I drive it every day, rain, snow or shine! And I'm loving every minute of it!
