i have a 89 subaru wagon with 163000 miles i would like to know how high of milage they can get.

The site "subaru high mileage club" (http://hometown.aol.com/nv1z/subaruhighmileage.html?f=fs) has several with well over 300k miles on them.

 

Pretty damn impressive... I've got a ways to go from 116k haha

My 1985 D/R 4WD GL Wagon has 269,469.1 miles showing. The speedometer/odometer is inoperative. The lady I bought it from says it had not worked for years:eek: . No telling how many actual miles are on it. It looks like hell, but runs like new. Uses/leaks no fluids, does not smoke, (are you sitting down?) No tapping from lifters! Runs smooth with plenty of power. All electricals work, even though the bottom 6 inches of the car is rusted away! Everything still works on the car and it drives great. Even after sitting for over a year.

 

 

I love these damn cars.

got a trade in car at the dealer. 97 escort wagon

 

384k miles on the odometer. thing is that it wasnt working when I drove it. engine was original but needed a tune up bad.

bleh forgot to mention, my old bimmer (1985 BMW 318i) had 208k on it before the odometer froze up, but saying it worked would be a stretch... it worked, so long as you jump started it... and you idled in the driveway for 10minutes before actually driving, parking brake on, in drive... on ebay it went... peice of ****...

276,000 plus maybe 500 cant remeber what it is exactly(My Loyale) still runs like a champ.

87 Subaru DL 2wd wagon 3sp auto, "POS series" at 291,000 miles and just passed smog yesterday

I have a GMC 2500 Van with 312,000 on it. (Second engine, third tranny )

 

I bought my 88 GL with 182k 11 months ago and it has 203k now. Gimmie a couple years, I'll get 400k no problem.

1990 brumby heh a bit piddly but 270,000 KM. No lifter ticking just a ratley hotdog muffler after 3k rpm.

 

ford econovan (mazda rebadge) 300,000 Km

 

suzuki sierra 375,000 Km

A professor I know claims to have over 1,500,000 miles on one of his Subarus,an '83 4WD wagon.His wife came out and backed him up.Apparently he'd commute home on the weekends from places like Univeristy of Florida,and Michigan State,and other universities he's worked at.

 

I haven't spoken to him in about 2 years,since the summer after 9/11/01 when he was greatly concerned for his wellbeing while working in Paris.He purposely took all my info incase something happened to him.Well,I guess he's ok.

 

I told him to write Subaru of America but I don't think he was into the fanfare.He has a hatch also with over 450,000mi. and claimed to still have all original components in it.

The 1.5 mil car was only on it's second engine,so he claims.He's in North Salem NY just incase his story ever gets into Subaru's Drive magazine or some other news.

 

His brother inlaw owns a shop in Canada that has a rotiserie....for cars.His body on the wagon looked absolutley incredible,in very solid shape.

Sitting next to the hatch and wagon are a Gen II BRAT and another hatch for parts.One cool old professor!...and in the garage a couple or micro cars.Very cool guy indeed.

3 days before my 82 Hatch was to hit 300K, I got T-Boned.

such a pretty hatch rob!!

 

mine's around 220K + or - 5k

316k on the 80 4wd wagon I am driving now. Orig trans, 1600 is rebuilt but lasted up to 50k ago.

i have either 397K or 497K i can't remember, been a long night:drunk:

 

-mike

336K on my 83 Brat.... I'll still be driving it as soon as I get the fuel pump issue worked out. Wish me luck.
