LOL Dave, I too thought he meant cash, I was getting to ready to hit Justin up for a loan. Well guess I will have to put my upgrades on hold.

Wow, 200,000 on your Monte, that is a trunk load of miles for sure. In 5 years what has been your most major repair that you had to do on her? Anyway your Monte is looking extra sharp for as old as she is. Your making it look easy keeping her like new looking. Good job!!

On the mechanical side, the only fix I have done in the last 5 years is replace the water pump. I did also replace the drivers side quarter panel due to it rusting out. That was a much bigger job obviously.

Yes this is a daily, hence the miles.

Justin, that car has been well kept man!! Congrats on 200,000 miles!!! My '94 Grand Am did not look near that pretty when I rolled 200,000 on it!!!

I really love what I've seen you do with that car over the years. It's really outstanding. The 2 tone color scheme, custom LED tails, fixing the quarter panel! Remarkable!!

Thanks for sharing your mile stone!!

Looks awesome for 200k. With my 97 the more miles the better, i'll take em like a badge of honor. At about 169k right now, hopefully in the next year or so i'll be crossing 200k.
