HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! Like I know how many miles are on any one of the engines I've put into my car...

I'm pretty positive he meant "MX-3, owned by you, with the car's original engine."

Many of us can't even claim that anymore! I only can because I haven't found the right swap candidate yet.

I will cross179,000mi in the morning on my way to work. Original engine, second transmission, I have put 80000 of them on the car

Swapped the original engine out of my RS at just over 230,000 miles since it was smoking and hesitating a lot. It's probably still good, just needed some tlc (hindsight with more knowledge regrets that 'JDM' swap).
My GS just passed 190,000 miles. Over 75,000 since the ATX-MTX swap.

The car MrMazda92 was referring to was my GS. It ran perfectly until my ex drove it without coolant until it died. I filled it back up, and she drove for a couple more years, but with complications once in a while. I believe that, with the way I took care of her, and without my ex having driven it, she would have lasted until 300,000. I changed the oil every 3-4K, and only used synthetic, and I maintained her well. I think that if that wasn't the case, she would not have survived freeway driving with 0 coolant.
