Well I'm up to 58,601... Haven't driven her much this past year, but I'll be making that up this year.

135,000 Miles has several months down time but still pulling strong. Replaced the rear gear oil and it was gummy.
Side of the road issues:
1 Fuel Pump wiring broke after three fuel level sender repairs
2 Died in route due to wiring harness fried on the headers after new Engine install
3 Dead battery when rain shorted the relay for the Oil Cooler fan and it was on all day while in a parking lot.

Note none of the failures were car alone induced, always a previous repair or human involvemen or poor workmanship (Mine).

The damn C5 is a bargan to buy, hot rod and drive, mine still gets 28 MPH in 6th gear, 1,500 RPM at 70MPH!!!
