Funny I was about to make a new post and saw this...
I recently found this and wanted to share but well it's better to put it in here since the topic has been brought up already.

have read about one that has 500,000 km on it (310,650 miles).
the first mechanical failure was the power steering pump at 99,408 miles then again at 242,300 miles
the knock sensors were replaced at 230,000 miles but this was after the engine was steam cleaned
the auto was re-conditioned at 267,000 miles
there are more repairs that have been done to the car but they are non motor repairs.
Its basically just an LS1 (same as an f body) and the car its in is an Australian version of the commodore called a caprice . A stretched version of the commodore with more upmarket features and trim.(it's a 1999)
The injectors in it are still the original ones and it runs perfectly according to the owner.
The car is used as a limo and the only mods are a cold air intake and cat back.
it gets serviced by the book and always warmed up before driving .
sure hope mine is as trouble free as this one , only got 10500 miles on mine

I have 130,XXX on my 99 Z28. If my car wasnt down for almost a year I would probrably be around the 160-175, XXX range. Car runs like a champ. Getting your car serviced on a regular basis is a very good thing. LS1's are great, but you guys already know that

There is a guy on Corvetteforum with a 99 C5 which had 320k on it the last time he reported, which was many months ago, so he's probably well over 350k by now. He was still on the original engine and trans! He is a salesman in Michigan who drives about 4-500 miles per day (something like that) so he's doing a ton of highway driving.

86k on my 00.
problems have included Auto rebuild (that was to be expected...)...
And that's it. Small problems like the power stearing pump dieing on me (sucked up all it's juice lol).
Just added some synthetic oil to her yesterday. Runs smoother than my g\f's honda accord. buwhahaha
