Broke 100 000KM last month

Hey,

I haven't been on here in awhile. Anyway, just wanted to drop a quick post that I broke 100 000KM on my car in early October.

The engine still runs well, I need to replace the spark plugs now, but other then that it is in great shape still. The struts are a bit noisey too, but overall the car is standing up well.

Anyone else break 100 000KM yet?

Ordered/bought my car brand new October '06, and one year later she's got 32,600 miles on her. Daily driven every day, come rain or shine. I'd get a beater to commute with, but a. im broke and b. I love driving my car, especially considering I have a lengthy commute. The Pioneer sound system and heated leather seats make for a nice ride.

lol, hell yeah, mileage ftw!!!

Wonder where i'll be at 19 months. Im sitting at 12 months right now.....i'll probally be around 40k maybe.....

My fellow SS friend who lives like 5 min from me (Pieeater) said he put 40k on his car this past year, so he's right there with us.

We should start a high mileage club thing to put in our sig man. Like "High Mileage Club Member #1" or something.

Jeeeez, drive the car man! I put 4k in on line 2 months, lol.

Then again, my car is my ONLY car. I'm only 20, so one car is about all I can afford. I might search for a $1,000 beater in the future though.

Heh there WhiteSS,

My SS/SC is also my ONLY car, I just don't get out much!

That's why dealers love me when I trade in my cars. I only had 7,500 mile on my 1 1/2 year old '04 SRT-4, and about 8,000 miles on my 15 month old '06 Focus ST.

LOL

I haven't had to many bulbs break.....well stock ones at least. I kept replacing the headlights before, but I am done with that now. And yeah, mine has a case of the creaks too, but still pulls strong.

I can one up you all! Mines a Lease! FTW!

My first Cobalt was a 2005 base coupe purchased in June 2005 with 6 miles on the odometer. When it was traded in September of 2006, it had 48 or 49,000 miles on it.
(by the way, I see the car still running around and gladly the people that bought it have had no problems with it and they take excellent care of it)

I purchased my 2007 Cobalt SS/SC in September 2006 and have just flipped 30,100 miles today. Aside from some road scratches and a damaged lower front valance (you hit a 20lb rabbit at 120mph and see what happens!), the car still looks showroom.

Oddly enough, I've had no problems with this car other than the first couple days I had it a year ago... It's run like a swiss watch!
