When I bought it my goal was to drive it to 200K miles or until it fell apart on me. Looks like the 200K mark is a definite possibiity and if it's still kicking then I'll keep it. Probably won't be my DD at that point, I'll turn it into a project car.

Thanks for the compliment!!

That's cool man it's a sexy commuter car. Ill probably sell mine once it reaches 100k it's at 80,250 right now i drive about 20 miles a day 5 days a week my commute to work so hopefully I will pay it off in less than two years and trade it in for a G37 coupe

I'm 37. Just got an 03 coupe last year. Did springs, grille, OEM 19's and a lip. I'm looking for wheels and exhaust. Thought about putting seats in it too.

I been modding since 16 (pop's 77 Z). I had an MR2 turbo with a ton of stuff done (built motor, upgraded turbo, body kit, rims, Brides, etc.) to it before the G. I still drive a 92 SE-R lowered with a roll bar to work everyday (first car in 92). Sometomes I think I'm too old but I don't feel like it. When I got the G my wife told me to keep it "old man style". After reading this and seeing some older guys driving some modded cars, I don't think my car is up to "old man style " yet.

Yep, there are a few 'old men' in this thread that roll in some sweet rides. We're pretty sensitive though about being called 'old'.

What's wrong with the leather bra? I don't have one for the G and I don't think I'll get one but i did have one for the SE-R. I guess I'm old......everyone in the early 90s had it.
