haha, flo its 65km

lol... but hey i guess i'm just part of fords SVT's service plan accellerated.

i guess they expect hey

65km 3 years... 15 times in for service isnt bad in 3 years.

but hmm, i did the 65km in 1 year. and i'm in there 15 times.

Sounds like it was planned :lol:

Ps. i'd kill several people for a G35 5/6spd.

No, no, I know YOUR car has that much, all I was trying to say was that dood was saying that a car with 100K is unreasnable, which it isn't as long as you find a good car. Newer cars engines are proven not to show any kind of wear with proper maintenance until 300k.......A car can have 150K on it and still perform as good as the day ot left the dealers lot. High Mileage cars arent that bad if you find a good one. Ie: 65 year old granny driven. Most G35 sedans I see are driven by old ladies to.

Frig, my Justy with 300K has seen the Garage less than my focus has. :rolleyes:

Ok lol, bluetoy, youve been added to the list of people i'll PM when my car breaks... :lol:

Like i said... not the car

SHitty service!
Im thinking about picking up an older saab, they are dirt cheap and no one really has one done up. good thing, they come turbo and variable compression, designed for boost.

I want a super cheap beater to play with.

unlike you, I do not need to drive to work and all. So reliability and down time for mods isnt a worry at all.
