It's official. 100,000 miles
I hit the 100,000 mile mark on my ride home from work today. I have put 55,000 of those miles myself and enjoyed every single one of them.
My 2004 coupe is the best car I have ever owned.

Congrats on the 100K !!! I'm in your camp,,,I think these cars are meant to be driven and ENJOYED!!! Never could understand the leave them in the garage and wax them to eventually sell it with no miles in it and take a big dollar hit. To each their own I guess. Keep enjoying the miles and smiles!!

This will be hard to top. I have 336,852 miles on my 2000. Now at Twenty First Century Muscle Cars for a new LS3 .This will be my third engine LS1,original lasted to 161,000 miles.The second engine LS2 went to the current miles 336,852 "176,000 miles.
I hope to have this one to go over the 500,000 mark.
I drive Old Blue every other day,alternate with Little Red C-7 Z51

Nice work, yours looks a lot like mine (only mine is sans bsm's). I think I'm at 109k now, will likely be 120k by summer.

There is a small piece of me that feels bad about the sheer number of miles I drive my car (daily driven 10 months out of the year 80+ miles a day), but it is so damn fun to drive.

I'm only a few hundred miles away from 100k myself and still enjoying every mile I put on my 2000 coupe just as much as I did when I bought it three years ago.

You have given me confidence that my recent August '14 purchase of a '04 vert all black manual with 32K will make it to 100K. But I would appreciate it if you could list all the repairs (Non-regular maintance after the warrentee lapsed) to your Corvette over the 55K you drove it. Having owned 2 previous covettes that were like Oak Island's money pit abyss (last corvette owned 22 years ago) , I would like to know what I should consider to fund my corvette repair bank account from my retirement fund.
