Took this pic last week on my cell.
Flipping 28k on the ODO.
I actually accepted an offer "I couldnt refuse" last week to buy my beater.
So I sold it. I will be DDing the R in the meantime. I guess I better get used to seeing the clicker roll.....

Mine is at a little over 70k. Engines and tranny's can always be rebuilt. Plus if you take care of them good. Which I know most of you do. The engine will last atleast 200k easy!
It doesn't hurt to redline heR once in a while. Cleans out all the build up from those that hardly get driven. Just look at all the old muscle cars. 99% are rebuilt and harldy have original parts and are still in great cars and in demand. I'm sure the R when it becomes a classic will maintain good value or even maybe be worth more...
I'm not saying drive them everyday or beat them up, I just wouldn't worry about miles too much.
Enjoy your R's while you have them!!

That's not so bad. I thought from the title that you crashed your car. Glad to see you didn't.
Shawn, your car sure looked nice when I saw it in June in Omaha. How are those rotors working out?

Exactly!
When you add a "1" to the front of that odometer, you'll find out you could have been enjoying that car much more than you have...
I should jump to 128,000 by the time we get to expo...that's with a bucket o'track miles
