Not at all. you figure the national average is 15k a year so if you went by that you should have 240,000miles. So with 129k on it, thats roughly only 8,500 miles a year. Not too shabby.

My oil pressure has been low since I bought the car... I was told it was a common thing though back at fbody.com... It has been like that for 70k miles... and I run the ***** off it.. hot laps at the track, daily driving, weekend fun.. no problems yet.

I think the m6s have a lot better snappy take off stock for stock, I was wondering if something was up with my 94 a4 for how slow it takes off, but yours looks slower(not trying to be mean or anything). Def get some mods going on it, itll wake up!

The amount of time for that speedo to move up looks familiar. I need some mods. The LPP's are on their way! I got a 94 and I have 111k miles on it. I didn't think that counted as low miles though. haha
