Since last January when I got both my Montes, my 97 has 122,343km and it now has 171,233km on it. and my 98 Z34 had 229,978km on it when I picked it up in Toronto, and it now has 253,000km on it.

I know some people don't drive very much, and a buddy of mine, put 30,000km on his truck in 3 years LOL.

10,000-12,000 miles a year. My car was bought new in February of 2004 with 35 miles on the odometer and I bought it from the first owner June 2008 with 18,100 miles on the odometer and now there is 38,200 . So the owner before me put roughly 4,500 miles/year.

I put about 10k miles on the car a year. Bought it with 66k miles last year around this time. Car average is about 8500miles per year, which is not bad IMO.

I drive about 10ish miles to work 5 - 6 days a week. Bought the car in April of 08 with about 72,000ish miles on it. Hitting over 86,000 now, didn't working for about 4 months last year.....I dunno, hard to say. Be nice if I can keep the mileage low before I sell.

I bought my '97 monte in Dec. 08 with 124k on it and when I traded it in Sep. 09 it had 165k miles on it. My '02 GTP had 50k on it when I started school August 08 and when I put it in the garage when I got my monte in Dec. it had a little over 64k on it. I just bought a 98 GP at the end of Jan. and it had right at 120k on it and I just looked at it and it has a little over 127k. I drive a lot. If im not working I am on the road going home to take care of my parents and then coming back the same day or the next day for work. its 220 miles one way. Thats where all the miles come from.
