2004 Z06 CE - Purchased from the original owner with 5,900 miles currently just over 7,000 miles. Stock except for a Blackwing.
2001 vert - Purchased new for the wife in March of '01. Bone stock 6 speed with 16,000 miles. Did replace the runcraps with Goodyear GS D3s, wow what a difference! Painted fuel rail covers to match the car (Navy).
1969 BB vert - Purchased in 1987 (I am the 5th owner) with approximately 100,000 miles, but it has less than 10,000 since a body on restoration. 427/390 with Muncie M20 4 speed, .030 over, Comp Cam 270 Magnum, roller rockers, MSD-6AL (tucked away in the engine compartment), try to keep it as stock looking as I can.

Personal touches include: Magnaflow Magnapacks Cat back w/X pipe (Thanks Advance Auto Bob  ), Jvc Hdd stereo sytem with Navigation, amp and stealth boxes, Hard wired Valentine 1, Some cosmetic Bling which include black outs, arm rest, etc. And a vanilla air freshener  .

98 C5 A4, 176,000 hard miles. Started drag racing it at 20k miles, and it is raced 2-3 times a week usually during the season. Went through a few trannies before building a strong enough one (Greg muscled a few in back when ), but the rest pretty much just keeps on going.
It runs low to mid 11's on motor (330 RWHP) and high 10's on a 125 shot, and it is driven daily as the shop truck.
Tearing it down in the next month & rebuilding everything....the rack is getting loose & the motor is starting to get a little loose as well.
