All I can tell you is I'm about to break 43K on mine and it's fine... I'm interested to see if anyone has had to replace theirs.

I figured I should get anywhere between 50 - 75 k. This is only guessing.

Living in NY, as long as you arent getting tons of road salt on it, it will last a very long time...

never even thought people worried about exhaust life. as others said as long as its not abused by the salt during the winter u should be good for a long time. would like to know if anyone did have to replace theirs as well

Exhaust.....lifespan?

If you live on the east coast or one of the cold northern states where salt
and other carosive elements are present but take care of your car there's no
reason why the exhaust system shouldn't last 100K miles.......on the other
hand if your car sits out all winter and isn't kept clean you can cut that figure in half.

Thanks for the replies. I figured the same as you all mentioned.

I don't plan on keeping the exhaust forever, but was just curious.
