Re: How Many miles?
My 90 has 254K miles on it. I drove it from Atlanta to Michigan two years ago 800 miles straight in ten hours with 2 pit stops for fuel. No issue's at all.
I bought the car with 253K miles on it.

WOW....... Say.......do you happen to have any history of the maintenance on your ZR-1 with over 250,000 miles on it? What was replaced and when? That would be very interesting |

Transmission is original, Rear end was converted from 3.45 to 4.10 when the engine was done. Currently undergoing a full restoration. Not because she needs it, But I want her to look as pretty as my other Z's. I am funny like that. Not Complete 368/600? We can hope right. Maybe put her on a 175 dry shot. Ram Dual disc Clutch - Will order from Jerry when the time comes. D44 - I do not know whether I am going with 3.54 or 4.10 gears. Might just Leave the current D44 with 4.10 alone and take my extra D44 and rebuild with 3.54. Then Changeout rear ends when we do the half or 1-mile races. Bat Wings Powder coated (Black 3.54, Crimson 4.10) Engine compartment Blacked out with Crimson Red powder coating. Ron Davis Radiator Interior - Leather Wrapped Crimson Red with Black Carbon fiber fillers plates. Exterior - 2010 Cadillac Diamond Black Pearl. Complete: ZFdoc Racing ZF trans - Complete Entire suspension - 30MM front Sway, 26MM rear sway, DRM quick quarter suspension with Bias Spring, Synergy bushing, Everything powder coated to match the crimson interior. (Need to get the Camber Brackets (Crimson) Trailing Arms (Black) powder coated. 96 GS Calipers, Baer two piece Eradispeed rotors front and back. Calipers and Hats powder coated Crimson Red. Interior - late model seats everything Leather Wrapped Crimson Red with Black Carbon fiber fillers plates. Might upgrade door panels to 95-96, I really like Jeff and Locobobs doors. Pretty much it will be a new car with 254K on the odometer. I am hoping to offer the Carbon fiber pieces to our members for right around a grand. I have two Extra complete interiors for 90-93 I am currently looking for 2 complete interiors for 94-94. Once I have these I am going to send them all out for Carbon treatment. Radio Bezel, Shifter Bezel, Door handle Bezels, (4)AC/Heating Vents, DIC, Gauge cluster bezel, Headlight switch and the window switches.

Re: How Many miles?
Can't top Robert, but I bought my '93 Quasar Blue Oct. 1994 from original owner with 6,000 miles on it. Sold it in 2007 with 74,000 miles. According to current owner, still running strong at 121,000 miles. Bought my '95 Polo Green in May 2012 with 21,000 miles and it now has 31,400 miles and a Haibeck 510 package. --Bob

I would love to have the time to put 245K miles on any sports car. The truth of the matter is my highest mileage car is my wifes 2003 50th Anniversary with 42K and some change. For all of you out there that drive your cars kudos to you.
