Just rolled 200K miles (322K kms) today

Like the title says, I just rolled 200,000 miles today. Over the years that I've owned it oil consumption is increased from one quart for 9000 mi to 1 qt per 3,300 mi. I regard that is not bad for the age of the car and the mileage on the motor. Now it's time for a 5-hour service E on the car...

Nice. 200k is great for such a high-performance car. I sure hope mine gets that far. How long you had the car? What type of maintenance or major repairs have you done since you owned it? Any mods (if so, at what mileage were they installed)? Any major maintenance or repairs done that you know about before you owned it?

Nice though. Still running well, aside from oil burn/leak? That type of oil loss on such a high mileage car isn't surprising to me...I'm actually surprised it's still running. Anything ever done with your S/C? Transmission? (did it make 200k too?)

Nice! That's a great milestone. I'm not far behind you, I just turned over 170k miles a few weeks ago, and I'm at 172k now.
