Message I can't touch Zirvana's mileage anytime soon, but I figured this was somewhat noteworthy.

I caught this on my way to work:


PRESTO!!

Not bad for a car that turns 20 years old this July. I'm still on the original engine and turbos. They're definitely showing their age but it's still respectable for a car with 150K on it.

I'm the second owner of this car and I bought it 9 years ago this August with 64K on it. While I never consider a car purchase a proper investment, I've got to say that the return on the initial cost to purchase the car has been immeasurable in non-monetary terms of friends and fun that I've encountered over these last 9 years and 86,000 miles. :-)

Thanks to everyone I've met and become great friends with through this site and a common interest in a single-letter reference that still causes one's pulse rate to quicken: "Z"
