it only happens once in a life time

Well yesterday as i was driving my stang around i noticed that i was coming up on 100k so i pulled over and took some pics.


99,999.9 KM



100,000.0 KM



here is the car at the beginning of the year i just had a CAI and running stripes



than i joined some mustang clubs. . . .





then there were the mods. . . . .



my favorite !

8000K HID'S and GT fog lights (getting HID for the fogs at the end of the month!)




now i need to get the car winterized

but now that the car has 100k what should i do to keep it in good condition ?

oh and i get the car: oil every 5k, transmission and rear differential every 50k and doing the coolant at the end of the month

but what else can i do that isn't expensive (just remember I'm a college student)


thanks

Keep up your car care schedule and lots of polish/wax and you should be good for at LEAST 300,000 k's

Once in the lifetime of the car perhaps, nice pic for your favorite , (after the mods), but would have looked better with the drivers door closed. Wicked shine on that Pony though man. Agreed that regular maintenance will serve you well in keeping things in good order - if you're going to drive in the winter, consider Rust Check or Krown. It's messy as , but you'll likely have some spring detailing to do anyway, and I think it's a good idea to protect from the salt abuse.
