Whew you had me freaked there for a moment. Visions of bad accident.
Hope breakfast was nice.
Yes sir, nice headlights.
Not all that many miles for a car of that age, looks good.

Cheers Richard

Holy cow! Flipped right on its side!
My dad used to call it a "monumental moment" when a car turned 100,000. I think we were on a trip out west when his truck turned 100K. We had to stop and take a picture of where we were. That was back in the late 70's early 80's when 100K was a big deal.

Happy Anniversary btw!

Nice headlights.

On the car, as well!

Happy anniversary!
It is the day I was married to my wife as well.

Didn't know you were married to Megan Fox!

Show some class Baz.

Congrats on all counts Plumb!

Mine might flip the second time this year, if I can get some more seat time in it.

I'm shopping for trucks, and realizing that I am not even concerned with mileage...130k, 150k, 170k...no big deal. The right truck, and that is just starting to break in.

Actually it was my tasteless attempt at humor, Vash!

I respectfully apologize if my lame joke was offensive Justin.

Congrats on your anniversary!

Cheers Richard

Judging by the photo of your car and wife, I'd say that you are a very fortunate man! Good taste in all areas. Happy anniversary and mileage milestone. :)

Lol no worries about the comments boys the wife got a good giggle out of them! We are very proud of the standard issue headlights with no desire to do the H4 upgrade!!

I rolled to 100,000 on my 85 911 so long ago I don't remember. I am at 176,000 now. I have driven my 911 in 40 states, and Canada. My goal is to hit all lower 48 states, maybe even 49 with Alaska, but that is just a maybe.

Keep on drive your 911. It always makes me sad to see a G body 911 with 20,000 miles. I can appreciate a super clean car, but the 911 is a car meant to be driven. Drive it, put miles on it. Enjoy it. It is just a car, but the perfect car! :cool:

I have a little analog book for my El Camino that I record all the events and work done.

I bought is with 42,901 miles on October 9th 1991
I turned 100K back on October 20th 1995
I turned 200K on December 22nd 2002
I turned 300K on October 31st 2011
I pulled the worn out 305 a month later and replaced it with a brand new crate engine 350 ($1,700) on November 19th 2011. and I am now at 371,000 miles.

I don't drive near as much as before since I now work from home and my commute is 14 steps down the hall to my home office.

As for the Megan Fox comment...... there’s no comparison http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1596463235.jpg

My NA Miata should roll over 320k at my next track event . . . seems fitting.
