That's intense! My friend's parents have a Land Cruiser with 325,000 miles and I thought that was impressive. 700k in a corvette?!

700k is impressive for sure, could not believe it!

I had a 96 Honda Accord that I gave to my Nephews at 225k miles, then between them they added another 125k I thought that was a lot. It finally died a month ago, the body gave up before the motor--rotted out!

I have 130k miles on my 2013 Audi Q5, had 53k miles on my 2014 Stingray after owning it for a year.

I've been slacking with my Z06 though. I've had it since February and only have 7k miles on it.

You get your use out of them for sure...
Keep your cars long enough and you will break 700k miles!

I spent a few years in Jacksonville Florida and had to mess with a few dealers there. Wondering why he switched from George Moore to Coggin after a time? Definitely impressive and a testament to what regular maintenance can do for an automobile with today's quality control and technology.

I do not know for sure, but it maybe when the tranny needed more work he left Moore. Or who knows maybe the Service advisor went to Coggin! LOL

I think the vettes 700k miles were all on a 1/8 mile drag strip. So, let's get the calculator out and see how many passes, along with trips to the track, travel time..hmmmm.

Amazing. I had the same 00 red c5. I loved that car but no way could my ass take those seats.

Gm should buy that car from him for the price of a new one.
