I do believe the 2002 Sonic Blue produced have been the most reliable SVTFs yet. Well besides your tranny mishap.

60k 2002 - had a load of crap fixed when I bought it used(still under warranty back then) Clutch is on its way out I think... maybe another 15k left on it or so.

Well after reading all the posts I believe that I have the Trophy. I am 130,600 on my '02 Pitch black SVT. I haven't driven it as much this year because I picked up a Cobalt SS/SC. But I just took it out today after a new thermostat, fixing my driver side window assembly and new tires(Kumho AST, best tires for price by the way hands down.). I have posted on here before with all my mods and probs. I don't feel like listing all of them again, sorry. I still have the original clutch though. I have to let the clutch pedal almost all the way up before it grabs, but it still takes off.

im up to 73,500 miles now. been in the shop twice since i bought the car in July. nothing major, just dumb little quirks that costed a bit. in the next 2 weeks he's getting new springs and dampers, brakes and pads, and 4 tires. there goes my bonus [mecry] [?|]

I just rolled over 91k on my 2003 SVT
stock clutch and timing belt (and most everything else)
i just replaced a blinker bulb this morning (the first one ever)
a bit of warranty work was done though, major stuff is as follows:
rear motor mount at 60k
my right axle was replaced at 88k
my e-brake cable, (rear portion) at 88k
thermostat housing, at 88k
my seat heater element, (drivers side) at 88k
its been a mostly trouble free car, i will be doing the timing belt soon, and the clutch will be next spring if i can get my hands on the TSB clutch parts.... maybe an LSD as well... i'll update the warranty list if i find anything else substantial in the papaerwork..
