We've had ours since April '04 and got it with 56k (now has 121k). We also had a 96 GT wagon at the same time that we sold in '06. Our L will be going back for some plastic surgery soon as well as some new goodies. Low miles have been making it harder decision to sell, so I "think" we're gonna keep her longer.

I owned my 97 GT for 7 years, I had this L for a few months. I doubt it will last as long as my GT did but we will see.

It'll be one year this September 7th. I bought it on my birthday last year.
I'm a dummy though
Loan paid back amount = $ in mods amount.
Not the most efficient way to do things.

I know what you mean. We used to own an Altima that was estimated to have just over $15k in parts and labor, and that's the same as what we paid for the car.

Bought brand new in January 1999 as the family car. My daily driver since the wife got a van in 2003.
Now at 133k miles.
And everything works except the power antenna (2nd one) and the windshield washer pump.

When you get outta that Typhoon into a 2something liter Subaru! How long have you owned that?
Although I don't get alomg with GM products, Love those and the Cyclones. They changed the world of mini trucks IMHO.

Check for vaccuum leaks first. Check the usual maintenance stuff - air filter, etc. Fuel filter and plugs are among other typical maintenance items.

1yr 5.5months. :) I only know that because I bought it on the 1st of July.
And during that time, I've pulled and resealed the engine, replaced the transmission (with a 5MT), replaced the diff (to match the trans), brakes, front seats, complete suspension, complete exhaust, gone through 3 sets of wheels tires (including stock), pulled cleaned and dyed the carpet, replaced all the exterior lenses except for the fogs, pulled the entire interior out to install a stereo, built a false floor for the trunk, and probably some other stuff I can't remember....
