Exactly. If it can't make it to 200,000 miles, I don't want it. :no:any engine can with proper maintenance. my wifes daewoo has 170k miles and those cars are so cheap they are out of business
Obviously, I can't say how long my '14 3 will last, but my 1992 Miata was running just perfectly with over 200,000 miles and no rust when my brother in law took it off my hands a couple of years back. That car was tough. Drove it to its limits. Put a turbo on it for a while. (From 90,000 to 160,000) I only returned it to stock when emissions laws made keeping the turbo a big hassle.Exactly. If it can't make it to 200,000 miles, I don't want it. :no:
...but I'm confident it'll make it there with a few minor issues, knowing Mazda. My biggest concern is rust. I intend on taking it way past 200,000 withought the faintest rust bubble, but something tells me that's a little too optimistic. :wink:
