My odometer reads People magazines and Cat Fancy magazines, I am very disappointed...

24,420 as of this morning on my ‘18- A8 2LT Stingray. Picked her up last April and she’s going strong.

I am not not saving her for the next owner!

2016 Spice Red getting ready to turn 1k - currently reads 993 miles.

Purchased Aug. 2018 with 763 miles from original owner who bought it Jan. 2018 (sat around for about 2 years before finding a buyer).
I only use it for car shows. Please don't flame me - it's my choice. Many use theirs as daily drivers, but I have a more practical
car for everyday use - 2019 Kia Stinger GT2. It's got a 3.3L twin turbo producing 365 hp.and AWD. I'm always being asked what kind of car
it is, as many people haven't seen one. There are no Kia badges anywhere on the car - the car came with the Korean market "E"
badge in its place (E for excellence). Pretty fun car. Color is called Ceramic Silver and has a red interior.

I just turned over 13k miles on my 19 Z06. I have had her since 11/6/18. Proof that all it takes is 1 raffle ticket bought at the corvette museum and a persons life can be changed!

You do realize that it's just a car, right?

May 1, 2019 was my 5-year anniversary for my 2014 Z51 2LT A6 coupe.

It is difficult to describe my 63,xxx miles without some repetition (no regrets, pleasure, fun, wonderful, no regrets, thrilling, fun, comfortable, exciting, fun, no regrets, fun).

At 60,000 miles I replaced the tires (with my 2nd set of 4 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S non run-flat tires, mounted and balanced - $1,000) and the battery (with an AC Delco 48 month/72 month battery - $170 plus $25 labor). The original summer rubber was replaced at 30,000 miles; the 2nd set of tires - all seasons - also lasted 30,000 miles. Because both sets of tires have worn evenly, the alignment has never been touched.

The ride remains taut; the body tight; the seats comfortable, the engine/transmission responsive, the lifetime MPG is 26.3.

Like McDonald's: "I'm lovin' it."

At 26.3 mpg you had to have a lot of highway miles in the 60k.

Yes, mostly highway miles but the car still has unexpected fuel economy. I drove the Silver State Classic Challenge on 09/18/2016 and averaged 20.1 mpg while posting an average speed of 111. 2743 mph on the 90 mile run south of Ely NV.
