Just a hair over 287,000 miles. The car is on it's third motor, with this most recent one having roughly 120,000 on it and still running strong.

I posted mine about a year ago, but since this post's getting old, I'd better update. The 85 GSL went from 152,00 to 176,000 and the 85 GSL went from 132,000 to 138,000 over the last year and two months (about 30,000 total). Mostly trouble free miles on original engines.
