Like the others have said, maintenance is your buddy. I've seen plenty of 9000Ts go well past 200k. My own case was pretty good. Bought an '86 9000T with 57k in '94, sold it last year with 175k. Along the line, I did have the clutch/hydraulics replaced at 92k, head gasket at 125k. Otherwise, things that got replaced were wear items (brakes, hoses, belts, etc. Otherwise, it was very reliable, good looking (the design and the car wear very well) and very fast. Only reason I sold it was because I had the opportunity to buy a '93 Aero. Otherwise, the '86 would have had 190k on it right now. Paul
