So we've basically got lots of Elantras of all mileages from brand-new to over 150k. Heck, almost a quarter who voted are over 100,000mi. That's reassuring

Time for you to makeup another bar graph I think. j/k
Hmmm.. 100k miles, my car's still got a long ways to go. I miss driving - I drove a lot more last summer (more trips to my gf's parents), this summer I've put on only about 5000 km. -------------------- A proud member of the club.

I have 244K on my 2002 GLS. The only corrective maintenance I have done is a thermostat.
I have replaced wear out items like the two front rotors. I'm too lazy to look at my rear brakes but that will be the next thing. I did replace the oil pump at 125K due to a mistake on my part trying to get the seal ring off when I was doing the timing belt. I just replaced the water pump on my most recent timing belt change at 240K miles. I buy my parts from the Hyundai dealership in Newport RI. The parts guy, Paul, said they have never known a water pump to go that long. I took it off and the impellers were pristine. I though I heard a chirping and that is why I replaced it (no leaks), also because I thought it was the right thing to do. I have a straight shot commute of 68 miles one way, it is all open road with no stop and go, i.e. "good miles". This is the longest I have driven any car. I am sold on Hyundai for life. Funny, I'll have a quarter million miles in two months. I will have the equivalent of circling the earth 25 times in this buggy. -------------------- A proud member of the club.

I believe we can deem your car "high mileage" Having said that, quick check shows that it's only about 10x around the earth... but at this rate, who's counting? -------------------- A proud member of the club.

I, also, am surprised at the number of 100K+ miles car we have! This is a good show for the reliabilty of the car. We'll have to see how many hit 150K, 200K etc. Mine, at 110,000, is still squeak and rattle free.

About 90,700 on my '02 GT. My favorite car I've owned by far. All I've done is regular maintenance so far. The gas gauge is a bit finicky at times and there's a few squeaks and rattles, but I believe those are because it was in an accident before I got it. (hatch is a bit noisy and the car was hit in the driver side rear, I believe) Lovin' the Elantra.
