Default 250K on original motor and tranny

Just hit it last night. I'm still on my original motor and tranny. I'm also driving a Revision A.



No rust, just the usual maintenance stuff, new clutch and flywheel, and interior is still spotless. Who says Hyundai's can't last? Just shows ya if you take care of your car and keep it maintained without beating it every day, it'll take care of you.

That's a lot of miles. I am about to turn over 200k, but the transmission has no second gear and I replaced the engine once. I still consider the car reliable, I've beaten it like it owed me money for all of those 200k miles. It's amazing that any car would be able to hold up this well.
