Default Sweet, I actually did a calculation.

Using your November post (which was not difficult to find using your user name and the word mileage), I estimated apprx 57,500 miles from 115/2. I took this number and multiplied by 4.83 which is how long you would have owned the car if you bought it at the beginning of 2000, up until the date of the post. This annualized the mileage to 11,904.7 miles/year which I then multiplied by 5 to calculate your mileage up until late December. This came out to 59,253.8 miles. I used the key word "about" as opposed to "less than" to add a subjective 2,000 miles to the total, which came out to 61,524miles.

Obviously this calculation is severely flawed as I did not know the exact date you purchased the car, and your driving habits. I figured the five year span would help level the average, even if you did some extensive driving in the end months. And of course the 2k/miles I added was purely a guess.

In the end I AM ELATED THAT I WON SOMETHING FROM AUDIWORLD!

Thank you Josh Decker at Achtuning.

P.S. Josh - how the heck did you find the closest numbers from that list? Did you have to search one by one?! That thing was looong.

Default I exported the list to a text file, then imported it to excel, then sorted numerically

And it sort of worked

Good guessing! Email me your address so I can send you your prize.

Default I actually imported the whole list into Excell... and then looked for...

the largest gaps in other peoples answers to help maximize my odds at winning. I figured his annual milage wrong though as my guess was around 80k.

Default I was gonna guess 61,610 (little brothers' birthday), but I decided to use mine, 61,129 (1/29)

I thought being birthday twins with Oprah would be good luck
