3 years, 21,000 miles. Was my daily driver in Southern CA. Work out of a home office in VA, so it's a daily milk/beer getter now.

14 months old, take 2 out for when it was in for paint, now just coming up to 6000 miles. Not bad considering where I live and the fact that I do try not to drive it in the rain, lacking any weather gear yet.

23, 490 miles in the last 35 years. 1026 miles in the last 2 years that I have owned CSX 3288. I wish I had put even more miles on the car, but kids, wife , and job take priority.
CSX 2149 has ~ 23, 500 miles in the last 38 years, but will soon see the open road, as soon as the paint is dry and we find time to put it back together!

13 years old and just over 5000 miles.
In the 2 years I've owned it, I've put over 3000 miles on it. I would have put more miles on it, but it seems like every time I try to take it out it has to rain. Remember when Florida was on fire a couple of years ago? It rained the first weekend I had the car. Try to go to a cruise...it rains. Car show? Nope. Big gathering of all your friends where you get to show off...I'll be there in my truck. I'v been caught in the rain many times and it's no fun. And neither is a wet, cranky wife.
So, if you ask me why people sell their Cobras with low mileage, I'll say it's the rain.
Maybe I should move to Arizona.

1994 Excalibur. I bought it about a year ago with 8,000 miles on the clock. Now has 13,000. I drive it EVERY chance I get, which is almost daily. I DO have a company car, they pay gas, insurance, maint. etc. So what, I'm STILL going to drive my cobra! That 5.0 with the 5 speed stick gets EXCELLENT mileage and is VERY easy to drive. Just don't hammer the throttle in a turn, it will "snake bite" you.
And it's not like you CAN put a lot of miles on your car with Oahu being only 50 miles long! So I make two trips when ever possible, ha ha.
