I can add the miles on both mine and get 100k. Good to know there are lots of happy miles left in the beasts.

Just a few hundred miles from the same milestone, Mike. And lswing, I'm pretty sure the total miles is very close to the total $$, with a new transmission helping that total. Have now relegated the beast to part time work, weekends and other drives other than my new daily drive. Holding out on announcing that to avoid the flamers.

Subaru Forester or AMG?

Just looked at my records...
The miles is 140,000, but the cash outlay is $152,000, the last big purchase was a new Radiator at 133,000 miles for $2500.
My tires are still good for this summer but snows will need replacement this fall.
Yes a Civic would have saved me a bundle, but the RS6 is a therapy car.
(The A8L is a blast also, it's faster and quicker than the RS6, believe it or not, drive one.....)

I've put $50k in mine on 70k miles.... Doesn't include oil changes, alignments, brakes or tires...
That amount does include a new trans and turbo's though.
