This was at the beginning of the month. I'm now at about 130,500. I missed the 130,000 photo op
The 87 is on the low end with 125,000. The Trans Am at the high end with approx 178,000!!

I'm at about 130K....Had some electronics fail, the engine computer, and that was expensive, not only for the replacement, but to re-dyno and program the entire engine and tranny map....
Still love the car, in spite of maintenance issues....ANY car will need service and replacements from time to time, there is no getting away from that....

Just rolled 117k today.. I've only had it for 500-600 miles.
Electronic HVAC and A4 were both replaced right around 100k.
Low coolant sensor acting up, power seats need the washer fix, bolsters don't seem to like holding tight against me for very long, and the top leaks a tiny bit in the rain.
I love it
