I wouldn't feel bad about 100k. I have 83k miles and am just now changing my clutch. My last compression test was excellent. Less than 5% difference from my 20k results. all at least 160 across the board. Leakdown was all less than 10%. Don't be scared of the mileage.

whats your compression?

so far, these motors have not only proved they can take a beating, but they can take it for a long long time. 68k here, and pulled 175-180 across all 8 (drivers bank read low, but after letting it warm up again, it pulled same numbers as the pass bank).

people get all freaked out about mileage, and its unwarranted IMO. this is 2000+, not the 1970's. Cars nowadays last a long long time, especially ones like ours that are severely overbuilt for standard daily driving, try driving a honduh like most of us drive our Mustangs, and itll never stand the test of time.

In my opinion I would rather drive my car than let it sit collecting dust. Each day that goes by is another day lost and brings us closer to the next generation Cobra.

Mine is not a daily but I certainly enjoy it and drive it.
