1999 T/A 88'000 runs great. I drove it hard since I bought it new with olny 124 miles on it. Only replaced the window motors. Pinions seal started to leak around 60.000.

2001 Z with 63,000 plus miles.

My rear is starting to whine a bit. Probably the pinion is going.

Oh well, time for the 3.73s

Black 2000 Formula W/ 91,800 and running better than new. Depending on the weather its lowend TQ is a beast, or its being a baby. Maintnancewise I'm ON IT. Only major problem is driver's side window motor. Got to replace it. I had to replace my daytime driving/signal lamps due to road grit. Oh, I did have the white plastic nipple holding the throttle cable crack apart from age and heat. No biggie I fixed it. I could use some new paint on the front bumper/headlight bezzels/hood I guess. Not too bad. I got new gears that are going in next Wednesday, she should run even stronger. Most of the above miles are freeway going to and from my university.(no longer as of June)

Screw it, I love my car and if the parts and engine starts tiring I'll rebuild/replace it. To be honest my could become a total lemon and I don't think I would get rid of it. Love that body style, so much 70's influence.
Not to mention my car sounds like the 70s too.

2001 Formula. 22K. Rearend whines a bit and the damned driving/fog lights go out every 2 months or so. Otherwise it's a great car. Basically stock and it runs 13.30's all day long. I run it hard, runs better that way.

My drivers side window is getting slow too. I read somewhere in this forum about it being the tracks running out of grease?
