Hey there! Looked at a few Z forums for high mileage, all topped out around 170k.... well guys, Im at 209k and going stronger than ever! This car has been so good to me, literally has never given me not one problem! Anyone else there thats pretty high up there?

Good to hear that, what year is your Z? Mine is an 06, only has about 70k, it is mostly a weekend/fun car for me. Glad to hear I've got quite a few miles & smiles left to go.

209k miles??? Thats impressive man. What all have you replaced. Any major issues?

Not to burst your bubble but there was one guy on here with 230,xxx miles on a DE motor and it was still going strong.

There is a guy in az with 260,000+ on the stock motor & trans

Thats crazy.

My cars a 2003. Havent replaced a thing, except my thermostat. But that wasnt because I had any troubles...

No bubble to burst here, I just dont consider 150k a milestone lol... Makes me happy to hear others out there climbing their way to 300k!

Added some "perfomance" pieces, (headers, intake, exhaust) but everything else original. Owned the car for years, kept up on maintenance... the only thing *needing* replacing were O2 sensors, tore them driving cause my car is so low.

Btw, stock automatic Z in my Orlando area for sale, 234k miles!!

Nice, I bought mine in '04 and have so far put 120k, I put 2k on it a month driving to and from work and the only thing needing replacing has been a door handle.

Very nice -- glad to see it's going still strong!

GRM is doing an STU build on a car with 180K on the clock.

173k here
 

I have 173k on my Z. It's a 2004 and I'm the original owner. I've been putting 20k a year on it for my job for the past 7 years. I've been very diligent with all the maintenance. I'm still afraid the engine parts are going to start breaking down. My window motor went; a few oxygen sensors; my catalytic converter went (good thing it was still under warranty); the oil gauge sensor broke; and maybe a few other things I can't think of at the moment. I still have the original transmission, engine, headlights, suspension, etc. I find it hard to believe that you can put 230k on a car and never have one issue.

150k here... Two rear wheel bearings went bad... Other then that basic maintence

A buddy of mine has an 04 that has close to 250k. Beats the crap out of it too. Still runs strong.

I'm only at like 107k but its really great seeing how long lasting these cars are, and how reliable they are.
So far the only thing I've had to replace was a battery and still need a door handle fixed other than that just brakes/oil changes.

But for the z being a sports car it is extremely reliable and honestly more reliable than most other cars period.

I guess I spoke to soon guys. My car started over heating a few weeks ago:( BUMMER. Ended up being just a bad radiator cap though. Picked one up at Nissan :)

Than...couple days later- Radiator cracked. Pretty sure it was from all the heat/pressure build up when cap was bad. Simple fix. Runs beautiful again.

It could have been worse. Easy fix really.

You made your 350 into a GTR look-a-like? WTF are you thinking?

I am kissing 190k

2003 350z
 

My 2003 350z with nismo exhaust, berk hi flow cats, aam angled plenum spacer, aam y pipe, pop charger is currently at 208k+ miles!

My 04 has I think 135k on it.. Last owners may have driven. But I doubt I'll put many miles on it.
