My 1988 has 218,000 but the motor and transmission have been rebuilt. If the interior is beat up the car might get you more than $500. But by the looks if it you might break 400,000 miles which is a miracle.

Nobody has asked the obvious questions...
bstombaugh,
Did you do anything other than regular maintenance? Any special treatment or fancy materials/fluids used over its life? And I'm guessing most of those are easy highway miles? Or was it driven hard?

Standard stuff just regular maintenance. a lot of hwy miles. but I do drive it pretty hard. Its been to the drag strip a few times. and a bunch of light to light racing. and a bunch of hwy pulls. you have to pass people some times but have always kept up on the small stuff. and never just let things go for to long. the last time I had it at the drag strip it had about 320000 on it. it wend 9.40 with me and a buddy in it spinning the tires out of the hole.

Yours must have been built on a good day.

Sell it back to GM. Maybe they can use it as a training tool.
