How long do you expect your G to last?

I've seen a number with 80k+ miles, but I'm curious how long you expect your G to last without huge annual repair costs? 125k? 150k? at 12k+ a year it's no time to hit 100k these days. Thoughts?

I turned 37K on my 03 last week. I'm hoping it will last until I get tired of it

I've got 23K on my 2003 - but now I'm going to drive it much, much more....so I'm thinking if I treat the engine extremely nice - 200K shouldn't be too much to ask.

I think mine will probably mechanically outlast the body and rust or other component damage done to the car by it sitting in my driveway covered up for 5 1/2 months of the year due to winter weather in the Northeast.

The car will last forever if you are willing to replace the parts as they wear out. I'll try for 200k then I'll switch out the motor and go again.
