High mileage thread.. Over 100,000
Im just like 200 shy of 194k on my SS. I paid $4000 for it last October when it had 188k on it. I drive a hard bargain when I show up with a wad of cash, but the car is also a hard top with cloth, so I used that to my advantage. Ive replaced a few things that needed it due to mileage (axles & bearings) but other than that its just been usual maintenance for what it is, and a few others from the mods.
Most of my mods are in my sig, along with a short vid. It still runs like a champ.

I also had a new clutch put in since the trans was out of the car.
The only "issues" I've had with the car:
1. Power steering leaks.
2. A/C Belt needed to be replaced.
Great car so far.
Friend of mine just bout a '98 TransAm with 45k for about $10k. It had a Random Tech cat-back and thats all. Its a 6-speed and its stout! It suprised me for being close to stock but again it was the first LS1 car i had ever rode in! He is the 3rd owner (i think) so i believe he got a good deal on it!!!
I've coming up on 165,000 miles on my '97 Z (mostly highway driven). Transmission was repaired at about 120,000 miles (leaky seal with some minor gear damage), 2 opti's and have had the gasket seals replaced twice. It needs some body work, the accessory power module needs to be replaced and it idles poorly (doesn't stall, just doesn't keep a steady rhythym...still haven't figured that one out).
Just picked up a SWEET '02 Black SS with SLP mods (dual center exhaust) and 33,000 miles for $17k. Little more than I wanted to pay but it was in fantastic shape. I think I'm going to keep driving the Z as my daily beater and bring out the SS for weekend driving.
