Default Highest milage sc400

What is the highest milage someone has on their sc400? I just bought a one owner 1992 with 175,000. It runs great but how much can I expect from it?

you should make it another 175,000 miles if you take care of it....there are members who have about 350,000 miles...on the sc's and people have 500,000 miles on the early model LS 400's...do a search you will find plenty of info...

You might have the most on CL.

I'd love to see pics of your SC if you could post some! Don't worry about condition.
Is it on the original tranny? What year?

Mines just getting warmed up. Rolled past 194,000 miles today ('93).

The engine being original is a given. It will outlast everything. What mileage were you at when you changed
the tranny the 1st time? Just curious because I'm on my original with 194K.
