135k? On borrowed time unless it's been kept up to a T. Which not many people do outside of enthusiasts...135k on a SSEi however, you could beat the crap out of it for 135k and still have room to go. I've seen it happen, my friend's dad has a GTP with 160k of pure hell and its still on its original motor and trans. :btruestory:

It's a bit higher mileage, but plague is a stretch :roll:

That's my personal opinion Jerry. If I was ever going to get a Northstar, it'd be like my dad did, as low of miles as possible...

Agreed!

But I do dare say... I think that's my old car! I'd need some better pics to verify, but...

Reasons I say;
1) Contact "D": The guy who bought it from me was Dennis
2) It looks to have black lug nut caps. That's something I did to mine.
3) I sold it with something under 90k on the odo, don't remember exactly. But the Dennis bought it to go all over the country to away Bears games (his cousin is Chester Taylor). So driving all over the place would've racked up that mileage in a year. IN which case that's all highway mileage too.
4) He sent me a text last week asking for the OEM exhaust tips. I responded that he was welcome to have them, but he needs to take the mufflers that they're attached to also... Haven't heard back.

I'd need better pics of the front passenger side of the bumper, and obviously any picture from behind with the single, big roung Magnaflow tips. Oh, and a close up of the drivers side front door. Friggen Wife backed the van into the GXP once.

So if it is mine, it's ok for at least 250k. :)
