I just bought this car Friday 10-17-06 previous owner sure did alot of driving. He used the car year round even in the snow (northern NJ) He said in the last few years he only missed a couple days of work because the snow was to deep. If the forecasted snow he would go in early and leave early.

Y2K with 8500+ miles
Bought it a month ago. Previous owner used it to drive to the golf club. Geez, poor thing will never see another golf club parking lot. And I have already put over a thousand miles on it. (7549 when I bought it)
I'll never understand why someone would abuse a great car like this!

These cars are meant to be driven. Fortunately, the former owner of my 98 didn't believe that. 
I've got 38k on the frame and body but only 170 miles on the 402 LS2 engine, 3k on the 3.90 rear, 10k on the wheels, 5k on the brakes.....you get the idea.
