Yeah. I have to forget about the mileage to enjoy driving it.

Someone should come up with a tasteful "blackout mileage" mod and mass produce it, like some of those cheesy cup holders.

my TII has 1/4 million miles and is in better condition than most 80k TII's I've seen.

Milage is realitive and you do end up replacing all wear items with better equipment in most cases (such as suspension/exhaust/intake). If you keep on top of it -it's not bad.

Like mentioned earlier you dont' buy a FD on milage alone.

I consider a high-mileage well-maintained RX-7 a point of pride. That's many miles of enjoyment, and if people look at it and can't believe the low mileage, that's a good feeling that you've been doing the job right and keeping the car nice.

Instead of "Engine Start" it should be "Replace Engine." At least then we'd know it was 60k miles
