Hi, I have over 250K miles on my LeBaron (aka The Beater). It's my wife's
car and she bought it in 1989 with 6000 miles on it. Still have the original
turbo, original 3 speed Transmission, original Exhaust, doesn't leak any
fluid at all.......However, I do need a new head gasket put in. That car was
the most dependable car I have ever owned. Abnd it's great in snow.

I also have a 1998 Camry (120K miles) that car has more problems than the
LeBaron... believe it or not.
