Who's owned their 3rd Gen the longest?
Coming up on 18 years for mine. Still love it. Mine was a lease turn in and I bought it with 10K miles on the clock when it was less than 1 year old. Has 138K now. Other than normal fluid changes I've only replaced a single O2 sensor in all this time.

I'm a high schooler and this was my first car. I got it a couple of years ago for 800$. I cleaned the interior, fixed a leak in the rear axle oil seal, and just recently got into modifications and such. It's at 245k miles and I plan on keeping it running as long as possible.

IIRC, that's when your parents bought it isn't it?

@Coward gets pretty close (but his is a 5spd, so there are bonus points for that)

I bought it in May of 1998 with 33,000 miles on it. Still, nearly 22 years as a daily driver isn't bad.
