Assuming proper maintenance on a regular schedule and moderate driving how is the durability of the F20C? Think it can go past 250k?

yes, it can. but with higher km, could mean more owners...and well, lets be honest, who drives an s2k THAT moderately?? (unless maybe those 10 to 20% of 'older' owners that do). also, you'd hope for a car with less owners overall, thus chances of it being better taken care/better driven too, as u cant go asking those 'other owners' how well the car was serviced/driven.

I agree with that... not so much on the mileage, but I'd really prefer to buy a single owner car too.

I got almost half the clicks on my car, and mine truely has never seen winter, and I like to think I drive it alot in the summer. So 160km seems like a whole lot.

high mileage = alternative to US import.

The F20C driven but not abused can go 250K but I think that is about as far as you can reasonably expect. A replacement engine (used or rebuilt) will run you about $5000 installed. $10K if brand new.

That's got to be one of the highest milers seen in Ontario!

Thinking for a track car?
