I've noticed whenever this subject comes up, the higher priced the car is, the less it gets driven. Ferraris and Lambos under 10K miles are normal regardless of age. I'm guessing most of those who buy them consider them an occasional use toy.

2012 Centennial ZR1 here with 29,200 on the clock. All I have done is oil changes and clutch fluid via the ranger method. She is a dream on wheels.

Update from page 3/ a year ago:
Installed Lingenfelter pulley kit, 160 therm, Texas Speed headers, X pipe no cats,(kept NPP), a Conservative Tune and Continental Xtreme contact tires. Completely different car...no traction in any gear. Scares the **** out of other drivers with the valves open. Impossible not to pull rpm's up when going through the gears. Can't keep from driving this beast now. Have got my 18" rear wheel drag set up, just waiting for Christmas to come and go to get drag radials.
@ls9_bobby
PS:10 years old/22K miles and still draws a crowd.

And my opinion, not like it matters, if its sub 40k miles. That is not "high mileage" That is only 4.4k miles a year on a 2009 car, or 8k miles a year on a 2013 car. I have a 2012 GS with 85k miles. Metraman is right, yall need to drive yalls cars more.
