I agree, it ain't no vette however, a good friend of mine just turned over 250k miles on his and it looks 80% of showroom.  He has had it so long that he wants to sell it because he is doing much better now.  He got caught in the Worldcom layoffs. 

He is having a hard time letting go of something that is basically -0- maintenance cost and great mileage.  I don't remember exactly, but my old beater Honda daily driver gets 30+ and he is close to that.  He will most likely end up keeping it for a grocerymobile (plastic and parking lots) as he is now an executive and has his own w-i-d-e parking place.

Not much on the wow factor, but apparently great and reliable.
