The title sucked me in !!!! It's not a vette, most likely a european car. At first I was going to guess a Porche, and it still may be, but the 140mph threw me off. And also I believe the tach is one the wrong side for a Porche. Can you show a little more of the tach?

140 is to fast for a pickup, unless it's a kightning or a SRT10, and to slow for a 90's vette. 200,000 ???? I'm gonna guess a late 80's to earley 90's something?

1) i will never own a pickup truck......ever.

2) Robert, the color question was going to be a tie breaker....so hold that thought (but pick another color).

3) 200,000 miles...Pinto? F150? hah!!

ok.....

answer: 1997 Camry v6 LE.

maroon, btw.....

oh, and the speedo has hit 120+ on more than one occassion. Rock solid, too. Never pegged it tho, ran out of highway....and nerve...


next!

Dang it ! You gave the answer to soon. I was narrowing down. I was going to retract my statemnet about the late 80's early 90's because of the digital odo readout. I love htese type of games !!!!!!

Watch out about the F-150's . The one I had in my senior year of high school and until I was 25 had 345,900 on it give or take a mile or two from when the speedometer was unhooked. When I sold it the 300 six still ran perfect and used about one quart between oil changes.
