    what cars tend to last 200,000 miles?

    i know that toyotas and subarus tend to last to 200,000 miles relatively effortlessly. what other manufacturers or specific models of cars can last to 200,000 miles without much work? i mean, i know plenty that don't...like most american made cars (pontiacs, buicks, etc). what about mitsubishi's? etc?

          The camaro's with the smaller motors do that
          Most cars, if well taken care of and not abused will get you 200k.

            Chevy's will go for a while, especially the trucks, which will go forever. My friend just sold his '87 pickup, which only had 197k on it. Our old '89 Chevy Celebrity station wagon had 205k when we sold it.

              mazda miatas will do it, some old mercedes can get well over 300,000 miles, and my roomates 1500 dodge ram has 165k and it runs fine.

                I have a Camry I bought over the summer, it had 200K when I bought it, and it ran kinda crappy, however, I did a tune up and replaced spark plugs/wires and found out he was running it on only two cylinders... However, with that fixed, I have no probelems.
                Once you have shot and eliminated someone, you have established your position towards them. In a sense, the next move is up to them...

                  my honda is currently at 180,000 and still running strong. it is also a '85. but basically any car will last you a good long time as long as you change all the fluids when you are supposed. also be very religious in the way you change your oil. this helps make the cars run longer. also my mother's old previa which we got rid of in 2000 had something like 210,000 and it is still running today.

                              Acura's run well. Mine is at 130k and counting and I haven't had a single problem with it.
