Welcome! Somewhere in the Bible (I think it's the chapter after Revelations) it says every time a Solara reaches a mileage milestone an angel gets his wings. :lilangel:

Welcome to SolaraGuy, guy, and congratulations on your 200,000 miles milestone. I've just turned over 63,000, so I hope to go as far as you have and more. Keep racking up those miles, my friend, and be safe.Image

Your car is just barely broken-in. I'm sure you'll have years of worry free driving.

I just have a little more than 86,000 on mine and I have a 2001.

nope 200,000 MILES

no major problems, biggest expense was replacing the brakes two years ago because they were worn pretty good, I do a lot of highway traveling, I still get 28-29 MPG highway, which isn't bad for a v6

one thing that has surprised me is all the features still work, my old ford I used to have that had over 200,000 miles most of the buttons/knobs inside didn't work except the bare minimum required to pass inspection

Thanks for the welcome, QuickSEV6. This was a great find for an old guy like me. By God's Grace, it should out live me, and, being single, I'll need to decide which one of my nephews I'll will it to: the 17 year old or the 12 year old. I can see it now with some big wheels and body decals and maybe even some fuzzy dice hanging on the mirror. LOL.
