The 200k original oil was a little dark and burnt but it was still felt like oil should feel and now I will change the oil at the max of 100k.
I was doing a lot of commuting in LA at the time. Don't really miss it.

I do have a 6MT and have never touched the trans oil @ 114k miles. Coming up on the major timing belt service now.
