100,000 mile club, almost
Pulled into the office parking lot and the odometer in the Targa reads 99,987
I will finally hit 100,000 miles on the way home
Hopefully I will reach 200,000 much quicker this time.

Just shy of 150 on the SC and just about all on the track.
They are tough little cars.

You might as well have a celebratory can of Diet Pepsi or something when you hit 100K, because when you hit 300K you might not even notice.

The trick is to take a picture of the speedometer when you hit 100,000 miles AND at 100 mph. You should easily be able to do this for another 40-50,000 miles! (I always did on mine).

I think I was at the track doing 140mph when mine hit 140,000 miles.
No pics, though.

I'm at 108k, but unfortunately I've put but 1100 of those miles on the car...
I have put 190k on my Grand Cherokee, not bad for a lemon.
