21 days left in the year, 12 until I go to Florida (for a week). She was at 118 when a fellow ZHP owner/friend and I did the clutch last Christmas break.
I'm betting she doesn't hit 123,000 (this would mean less than 5,000 miles for 2013) until 2014.
Hoping to have her down to an average of 10k/year by her 15th birthday. Since meeting my better half, we take the CRV out of town now (nicer ride) so this might happen.

I do something similar when in LA. If it were just me in the car it'd be fine, but I drive parents around every once in a while and the ZHP with stiff suspension on LA roads is a little harsh for them. I still love it but the view from the parents is that BMW isn't so luxurious. Trying to tell them it isn't a 5/7 series and a sports car didn't get real far.
So...what I'm trying to say is maybe imola can't handle the race car lol.
I can handle it, have been for nearly 8 years. But the better half dies not like it, too rough.
Things might change when we put 20's on the CRV. That will make the ride a little more harsh, then maybe the ZHP won't feel so bad.
