Hi, I was just wondering what is the current mileage on your current Ford Contour if you don't mind me asking. I am just doing a poll versus a Ponitac Grand Am (95-97). My buddy claim that Grand AMs can get to a higher mileage before they go out (without any major repairs).
Year and mileage will do just fine.
thanks. I hope that our contour last longer

There's no way for either of you to "win" that argument unless you're sampling numbers in the hundreds of thousands. For the record, there are individuals here with over 250,000 miles.

My CSVT has 119K miles and still running strong. But my parents' Grand am had 245K when my brothers girlfriend totaled it. Just my .02, but those Grand-am's seem to run forever.
