    (Long time lurker)

    Sadly, my 2004 M3 hatchback had to be put away. Rust (to nobody's surprise) was disintegrating all the wheel wells, door pillars, etc. Truthfully, the engine still ran great but father time caught up with the body.

    It was a fun ride and learned a lot on this forum over the years.

    My 2005 Mazda3 only has 135,000 km on it. It's still running great. There's some rust popping out now but it's not bad. I'm barely using it right now so I wonder if the car will go for another 5 to 10 years.

    Damn, it has been a minute since I've been around here. 3's coming out of storage, getting a bunch of work done, just picked up insurance on it again.

    Gonna take some time this summer to cruise again!

    Nice to hear from you Aris, and glad to hear you still have the 3. How is the body holding out?

    Still driving mine. I'm recently retired, got fired from TTC because no jabby, decided to take retirement. So
    I don't drive near what I used too anymore. I'm contemplating getting something new. She still runs great though so tough decision. Nearing 390k but still love driving her.

    Mine is still solid, except for the rust on the wheel wells and third brake light, I stopped Krowning my car a couple years ago as it’s to expensive to do both my car and truck and since rust came back I gave up lol

    that sucks about your work, this vaccine crap has divided so many people, I’m glad all these restrictions are ending
