:Reliability is how often the car breaks down over time. Otherwise even a chevy chevette (below) could be considered reliable... if you put enough maintenance and money into it it might be able to make at least 200K. I would be impressed if I read 350,000 with just pads and oil changes but I bet that's not the case. I don't think our venerable Z's with their injector problems, connector corrosion, lifter tick, suspension issues, etc. are anywhere near as reliable as today's Hondas or Toyotas.
:Nevertheless, 350K is MOST IMPRESSIVE and should be celebrated for sure. Congratulations!!

But you are right...on two points...injectors (one goes bad every few years. And when I do an injector, I always replace injector and coil plugs/connectors.
