59,000 on a '03, bought it brand new. I lived in cali for the first year of my Evo's life, and it was my daily driver.
Since I moved to Wisconsin, Its been my summer only car, and does not come out in winter. If it wasn't for the hoards of salt they use here, I'd be out in the snow all the time. I had lots of fun with it up in the mountains around LA when I was there, go up WHEN its snowing hahah, people there thought I was nuts ;-p

Yeah, I got 8400 on my 05. Don't have to drive far for work. Plus I have two other modes of transportation. Wish I could put more miles on my bike rather than my cars .Can't wait for the weather to make up its mind...nice one day cold the next.

I ended up driving mine last night because I went to buy some wheels from a local guy. I had a blast. I really love the change from my daily driver Miata, it makes the Evo feel like a beast again.

i've owned my car since 2005 as of now i only have 27,000 and some change on the odometer. i dont drive her to work as much because its about 40 miles each way. i take her out on weekends around the town and what not but majority of the time she sits in the driveway sleeping.

I got my Evo IX on 06/06/06 what a great day to get a Evo Its just more garage art then Daily Driver. I try to drive it at least once a weekend. I don't think I've had a chance to drive it for 2 weeks now. Anyway it just got over 10k on the odometer.

My evo showed up in August of 04, and as it sits I have put just a hair over 19k miles on it. I take it out 3-4 times a week to run to my friends house, or to a restraunt...ya know, where ever I need to go. Usually not far. Well actually I have put a few hundred on it since the start of this year running from Thornton to Boulder everyday for a mini-meet on my other car board (thats about 25 miles each way)
Its nice having a company vehicle

I have an 06 MR and I can't help but drive it everyday. I bought it in April of 06 and I have put 22800 miles on it. I paid for it so I might as well use it. Whenever I drive my girlfriends car, I tell her that I am cheating on the EVO. LOL.
