I know guys with over 300K on there 2nd gens. My motor blew at 71K since it was boosted.
I know of several DSMs with well over 200k on them, too. The actual point is that just because your car wasn't reliable, doesn't mean all of them aren't. I can show you several rotaries that needed rebuild/replacement well before 300k.

Stock DSMs are reliable. I had a 1g Talon for a year and it didnt break down once, it was stock. Just make sure the maintenance has been done on it, thats one of the big things that keeps DSMs off the road.

Just like any boosted car, when you start modding them, they tend to break down more often.

Oh, that's quite clever coming from someone who swapped engines from another car into theirs . i have had/still have/ 3 dsms, they are reliable if you have any idea how to treat and work on a car.

What car wasn't reliable? I never owned a DSM. But 5 of my good friends do. And I only see one on the road ever. The rest are broken down. I don't know DSM's that well, but I know what I see.

OH. Well I mean if YOU owned ONE for an ENTIRE YEAR and it didn't break down, then they must be HELLA reliable.

Yeah Chris, get the DSM's. Due to sethmo's testimony, I now think they are some of the most reliable cars on the road.

Fucking moron.

I'VE owned THREE for over THREE YEARS and never had a major problem over any other car I've owned. It's all about routine maintenance.
