      I guess I started out in the club. I just bought my '88 Cavlier Z24 yesterday, and the car has 203,xxx miles on it. The engine only has 103,xxx miles on it, though. So I guess it's all in what part of the car you're asking has 200,000 miles.

        Well, the '94 Lumina I just picked up has 185,000 miles on it or so. Pecks pretty loud, but it runs. My Cutlass...never. Car's got 136,000 on it...engine's got about 115,000, and it's a loud one too. Not as loud as the Lumina, but it's noisy...and getting ready to depart from the car for a different engine.

            181,795 bought it like that, put a couple on it driving it home 35.

            leaking anti-freeze out the exhaust, heads or lim, runs and drive fine, I would let it go get blown but I am rebuilding it for an engine overhaul course.

                                The trans in my 90's has 300,000 mi it had slippage problems but the automatic transmission fluid was never flushed or changed and I beat the living hell out of it, I finally added some transmission lurbicate from auto zone(selling it lil bro so didn't brother for anything extensive) with normal driving you couldn't tell it was almost 14yrs old. ^_^
