Nice ride. That is a lot of miles but it just proves that if you take care of your ride, it'll take care of you.

Holy sh_t that's a lot of miles. None of the ricers would believe you either since they all seem to think american cars are dead by 100K whereas their hondas last to 250K easy...yeah right.

That would be hard for me to get used to. I turn like 1700 in 6th at that speed. But as mentioned an M6 is much different than an A4 Oh and Y2K I dig the exhaust and the manta.
