My car has 240 000 kms about 150k miles and it still can beat any sunfire, cavalier, and all this new cars out there. The engine runs awsome, what is worn out is the engine mounts. I believe only thing that's been changed, other than plugs, wires filters is shocks and exhoust.
Good cars, I am planing on buying another one

Well, here's an update on my 1992 MX-3 RS: 466,000 miles/749,955 km and still counting!

Here's a list of repairs with the corresponding mileage.

Replaced radiator at 230,000 miles/370,150 km
Replaced fuel pump and distributor at 375,000 miles/603,505 km
Replaced clutch at 425,000 miles/683,972 km
Replaced starter at 460,000 miles/740,299 km
Replaced alternator at 462,000 miles/743,518 km

All of the above were the original parts! In addition, I have replaced both front axles, all wheel bearings, and the original rotors and calipers.

I have NOT had to do any work on the engine or the transaxle - both are still in fine working condition.

I recently had a spin out and crashed my MX3 into the highway retaining wall. Fortunately, I was only going 35 mph due to the winter weather driving conditions when I lost control. The front end of the car is smashed as is the hood and driver side fender. Aside from the cosmetic damage, the car drives fine. [Amazingly]. My original goal was to get 500,000 miles/ 800,000 km out of this car before replacing it and it appears that I will achieve this goal.
