My Odo might hit 00000 this year....
My Subaru just crossed 200,000 2 weeks ago.

I know I'm somewhere north of 200,000 but not exactly sure just how far north.

The odometer read 187K when I bought it, the PO had only owned it for about a year and said the odometer was broken when he obtained the car. I daily drove it with a broken odometer for about 9 months before I replaced the stripped gear, and it currently reads 197K. I'd estimate it's somewhere around 210K-220K in reality, but who knows.

Almost the same as SloMo228 here- Car had ~170k on the clock when I bought it, but the odometer stopped somewhere back around 2006 or so, and I drove it for about 7 months as a daily after I bought it last August before finally fixing the odometer in a way that held up for more than three days...

Best guess I have is that it's somewhere in the 250k range?

My old 1988 924s had 13k on the clock when purchased so that could have been 113k or 213k who knows and the odometer was broke. Myself, I added another 160k before retiring this car. Total miles I know for sure was close to 270k plus the undocumented miles due to the broken odo. I'll bet this 924s exeeded the 300k mark - according to my Indy the axial cam shaft play exceeded the max. tolerances, that's why we retired her...

I hit 208,000 yesterday in Stu.

Herbie was at about 220,000 when he got rear-ended. But most of what is salvageable, including the engine, will be going in "Young Herbie" - the RallyCross beast. Work to begin any day now...

DLarsen, your car is amazing!

Unfortunately, I can't add my car to this list since it only has about 167k miles on it. It is also the only car we own with less than 200k miles.
