It's not like it is here where we use engines until they go pop and then search for a replacement.

do you live in japan?

What does it really matter to you if it has 30k or 330k on it?

You usually replace your car after 30k miles in Japan.

Yeh, maybe I will... Never been over there. You don't happen to go on chicagovelocity.com, do you?

I have a friend over in Skokie...car guy (used to hang around @ Kwai)...I wonder if you'd know him.
