Default Re: How many miles on your Crossfire?

Mind you, that's with the car being a second car (I drive a '97 Civic HX for my daily duties/work) and the fact that I telework from home most of the time! And VA gets snow at least 2-3 months out of the year and the car doesn't move during those times. And yet I managed to put 12k miles on the car last year despite everything I just mentioned! lol
I was thinking exactly the same! Also when I look for crossfire for sale around the US I see many with real low miles still, which is pretty cool given the age of our rides. I assume there are many owners who use the car as a second car. Most likely back in the day when they came out the price was high enough to have most original owners baby these cars, keep 'em in the garage and only take 'em out for fun rides on weekend and date-nights! Mine is my daily driver and I just rolled up on 84,000. Runs and looks like new. A friends can't believe I would use a rare car like that and on top of that a two seater as a daily ride. I absolutely love driving it daily and to me that's what cars are made for anyways. You can baby it all you want but at the end of the day a car is made for driving and it makes every day a better day as I get to hop into this beautiful vehicle daily
