04 evo w/ 10K miles. I DO worry about miles just for the fact of resale. But the evo is my dream car, and now that I have one, I can't fathom getting rid of it. BUT the 16mpg is KILLING me!!!

05 MR, 1400 miles. I care about the miles to a point. No long distance trips for the most part, that's what my DD is for. Everything else is alllll gravy.
Oh, also no places where parking is in close quarters. Someone dings my door, someone dies!

I bought my 05 gsr a month ago and it just rolled over 3000 miles. I drive it everywhere. The resale value is higher on lower mileage cars but I would much rather have the pleasure from driving it than a slightly higher resale value.

I am somewhat worried about the mileage but more so on gas. I never regret driving it ever! The first day i got it i put 250 miles on it. But however i DO regret NOT driving it! Few days ago I was infront of an evo but I was driving my gf integra . By far best car I have driven on the performance side. I have an 03 with 18k miles and its a keeper!

Please dont worry bout these cars. Mine is a 99 with over 50k on the original clutch and some of the worst roads are in Belgium. I used to baby it but its a car not a baseball card..

And if so or not what year evo do you have and whats the milage?

04 WW - just hit 18,000 miles. While I would of course like a high resale value....this is my daily driver, and I love every mile I put on it. Took a road trip yesterday and got the best gas mileage yet. I filled up the tank completely and drove 275 miles, stopped at another station and filled up and she took 9.2 gallons. My jaw nearly hit the floor - thats 29.8 mpg. I couldnt believe it.....I love this car.
