My 14 vert came off the line on April Fools day. The same week it turned 3 yrs old I hit 36K miles. The last couple yrs here in the Chicago area, the winters have not been all that bad. I drive it as much as I can.

Just got her 2 weeks ago with 83,xxx miles. Put another 2,000 on her since then! If my C5 is any indicator, she's got a long and healthy future!

Have a good one,
Mike

2016 that we picked up at the museum in November of 15 just went over 10,000 miles. I had hoped for more.
The black thing is the reason the Stingray sat for so long this month. It's the wife's new Honda Civic Sport Touring Hatchback. Neat little car.

The '14 is the daily driver. The '16 and '17 are more for pleasure. The '60 and '76 are used for car shows and cruise nights.

Got mine in september of 2016. now that it's spring, I got it out of storage and just passed 9k miles. I know that's a lot for about 3 months of driving, but it's made the drive from NY to GA and back a couple of times now. those long road trips pack on the miles lol.

I drive it 5000 mi a year. Probably average. I'd say 40k is perceived as high mileage for a Vette, even though a 40k Vette certainly has tons of life left in it.

2014 LRG Stingray. Purchased used in May 2016 with only 3,200 miles. I just went over 13,000 miles this weekend on my drive home from the Bash. Other than that 1,500 mile trip, and the 1,800 miles I put on it from the drive home from the dealer (Albany, NY to Dallas, TX), I haven't put that many miles on her.
