My black X-11 currently shows 197,xxx but when I got the car the speedo cable was broken so I assume the mileage is at or over 200k. As far as the drive train, I have no idea of the mileage. I think the motor is original and matching but I KNOW the tranny has been replaced at least twice now. On my X-11 STE, the chassis has just shy of 72k original miles but the drivetrain has approx. 142k. My '87 Jimmy has 201k. My Dads '85 Chavy Van has 350k. And finally, I USED to have an '81 Volvo 245DL that had over 500k before it died and was never rebuilt or anything (top that!).

i have 227,xxx miles on my 3.1 MPFI. i just pulled the engine out a couple weeks ago so i could replace the head gaskets, oil pump, etc etc. i've owned the car since 4/00 & 111,000 miles. i've delivered pizza in this car since i bought it, so all it's seen since 111,000 miles is HARD city driving and lots of long interstate trips. i probably put about 3000 miles on it per month on average.
it ran GREAT when i pulled it. i'm turbocharging it using TGP parts, using the stock 227,xxx mile shortblock.'91 Cutlass Supreme sedan - 3.1 Intercooled Turbo / Getrag HM-282 5-speed - 13psi / lightly modded

I cant wait to see the results!!Tuning a car is full of compromises. You must decide if you are willing to give up either reliability, performance, or a whole load of cash. Also remember that repairs will seem to come up much more often as you strive for even more performance

kilometers / 2.2 = miles
my 2000 malibu is at 120,000 miles, so it isn't even close to 200,000 miles yet. but i'm planning on it going at least 200,000."But existing is basically all I do!"
