all i know is that i had to replace my transmission 2 years ago and it had 100k.i blew the trani but i would say a stock motor can last for a long time.it all depends on who had it before you and how they treated her.im guessing 150k maybe....

I have seen some first gens with 200k on them... but not alot of them, 150k is a good bet

if you have an 05, then you have the 2.0L sohc. I think these motors are very reliable and will last at least 150K. I've ripped on mine many times and i have yet to damage the engine, and mine is at almost 100K.
