What caused your engine to blow? I'm terrified of that happening to me.
#4 Spun Rod Bearing.
But don't worry, if it ever happens you can pick up a full P5 engine with low miles from ProtegeGarage for only $999.95! lol

Thats right... heheh, i thought i'd post cause i see 02MP5iiZM online (chair)
I'm not special.(rei)
That doesn't sound right at all.
This is from Edmunds.com
Curb Weight: 2,716 lbs.
They list the Gross weight at 3,611, that means the weight the factory says it can safely carry fully loaded with cargo or people.
An example of 3600 lb is a 2002 BMW 525i wagon
Oh I should of mentioned that my dad drives the car once a week just around the block and lets it idle for 30 mins., he also changes the oil every 6 months and he just had the transmission oil flushed as well as the coolant just recently. He even flushed the brake fluids. The battery was replaced last year with an Optima Red top. Even the recall on the butterfly screws was already done under warranty for this car. So the car runs great no problems. When I bought the car from my bro it only had 40 miles on it, the 374 miles as of now was from my dad driving it around the block once a week since new. He doesn't like to use the car because he thinks it's too small for him, besides my dad is a tall guy 6'4, even with the front seat all the way back he still doesn't fit. I will be leaving Oregon next weekend to drive the car back home, my dad is so happy about it he will finally get his space back in his garage. He did say he will miss the little guy(P5). He really loved maintaining this car.

And so ends another random thread... I have to say, 5 pages (or 74 posts) up till now in less than a week is pretty damn good for such a redundant random thread... this has probably been one of the top 5 recent threads! (not including the stickys) (lol)

Hey no doubt, good catch. That was a week or two after I bought it. Back before the all-consuming obsession.

Nope... But thanks for comin out.
I believe I am in the running for the lowest mileage, I have an '03 with 18,000 original. I bought it last month with 15,100. I dirve crazy miles so I always look for used cars with low miles.
I just placed a post with mpg and rpm/mph questions, 11/16/2007. Please check it out and reply with comparisons to your cars.
Thanks
