Default KEEP IT REAL!!-Post your mileage

I will start-

96 GS300-no Nak, no butt warmers, no TRAC
91,000 sum odd miles and usual GS issues-cupholder, door frame, moisture under trunk mat.

EDIT: My trunk struts were gone when the dealer sold me the car, but I thought the trunk was like a SC400s!!

1994 GS 300 (came with 24kt gold emblems, fully loaded)

I have between 100,000-101,000 miles

Driver side cracked trim, you guys know what I mean!! We all have that problem with the wind noise resulting from it!

The cup holder and the trunk struts are a lil worn making the trunk heavy.

Thats it!

Guys I think there is a drain plug near the power antenna that might be clogged causing that moisture prob. I read that somewhere but haven't checked it out becuse I think mine is still dry.

'93, close to 52k miles, no nak, no trac, no "butt warmers," no cd, no sunroof.

same trim prob, trunk able to decapitate in one swoop, rear main seal leak, alleged P/S rack problem (probably BS - knock on wood). Could use new leather. Other than that, perfect!

1993 stock it came fully loaded, gold emblems, Nakamichi Sounds, Trac Control, Heated Seats, 12-Disc Changer etc. with over 214,000 but i changed the motor at 204,000. The engine i have now is out of a 94, when i bought it it had 44K and i now have 55K total on the engine.


Problems are rear power windows don't work, time for some new leather soon. We all may need to do a group buy on a leather trim kit as i talked about in an earlier thread. Maybe sometime this summer.

007, just curious, how much did you pay for yr motor and labor?
did your old engine gave up on you or you just wanted to change due to high mileage??
