Hey! Just got a 99 SSE and I am in LOVE. I wanted some advice... it'* got 163,000 miles on it already, and I don't know much about these cars and how long they tend to last. I want to get it modified and jazzed up, but is it worth it? It'* not gonna crap out on me in like five years, is it?

and in case you can't tell, I a beginner with cars, but I want to know more

they last as long as you take care of them!

With the proper maintenance any 3800 car should last you a long long time, stock or modified.

Welcome to the club! And with that many miles general maintenance must be kept up with but I have 160k on mine and many here have far more miles then us with original engines and trannies.
