147,000 miles on it and it runs perfectly.

Take care of german cars and they'll run forever. Everyone I know told me not to buy one, since they "break down so much". I've got 107k on the clock with regular maintenance. I'm replacing the timing belt (interference engine) this spring and all I need is oil change every 3,000 and I'm good for another 60k.

My former vehicle and I ran into some less than desirable driving conditions and this is what happened:



It was rainy out and the roads were slick and I took a corner too fast and ended up rolling the truck over about one and a half times. It came to rest on the passenger side so I had to kick out the remainder of the windshield and climb out the opening. I was very lucky to come out of the wreck unscathed but my truck was a total loss. One of the big reasons that I was able to walk away from the crash was the fact that I was wearing my seatbelt. Let me take take this opportunity to tell all of you non-seatbelt wearers to buckle up! The last thing on my mind the night I rolled my truck over was rolling my truck over. But because I was classically conditioned to put my seatbelt on every time I got into a car, my life was saved. So, the next time you hop into a car, don't hesitate to put that annoying strap of fabric across your chest. You never know when it may just save your life.

I've watched my friend veer off the side of the road doing around 70, up an incline and roll back down. After stopping and sprinting down the middle of the highway, I see him taking his head unit out of the car. The seatbelt saved him and his passenger's life.

It's an 07 Lexus IS 250. Pretty much brand spankin' new. Still waiting for license. Black obsidian exterior and black leather interior. Nav package with chromed wheels.

My other form of transportation, my trek road bike is hiding in the back.
