Yes the G is still running very strong.

Almost no issues with it other than normal wear and tear.

The only things that needed be taken care of where the valve covers and the radio A/C issue.

Also had to replace the starter at about 180,000 miles or so.

Everything is running just great. MPG hasn't really changed since day one so I am assuming that the engine is wearing okay....

Had some wires cut in the trunk lid, but fixed that quickly with electrical tape.

Hopefully I can get at least 2 1/2 years out of this car.................

Have you kept up with all the maintenance such as transmission fluid etc? Have you replaced the shocks?

Now remember never to take it above 3,000rpm ever again

Congrats, but honestly i'm not surprised this car can get 200k anymore. I would be more surprised if it would reach 300k or 400k, 200k is normal already for these cars haha.

Mine is, and has been since I bought it, 200K or more. I'm at 106 and counting, still runs like a beast.
