It depends on what car. Usually if it is American made (GM, Ford or Dodge) then yea, that's pretty high miles for them. They usually don't last very long. But if it's German, Japanese made (idk about the new Korean cars) then that is nowhere near high miles.. LOL you still have a long way to go.
Which is why the only "million mile" cars you hear about tend to be Ford/Chevy's? Tell that bull shit you just spewed to the owner of that 600,000 all-original 80's Mustang. Or even my Dad, who has about 300k on his '99 F-150. Which the only thing that ever went wrong on was it had a new cluch put in at 207k.
Not to forget the recent Million-mile chevy truck that was on ebay not to long ago that had NEVER been rebuilt. Just standard oil-changes. I would never consider 96k miles alot on a car, especially a 2000, thats 8 years. My last car was a 2000 Impala, traded it with 175,000 on the clock early this year. Two years before that car I sold another 2000 Impala that I had with 203,000 on the clock, which at this point was almost 3 years ago now. Oh yeah, I suppose that wouldn't go well with the morons perspective on American auto's. A car will last as long as the owners ability to properly maintain them.

The only reason why they might have a million miles is because it's easier to rebuild stuff in their motors, and people rebuild a lot of things in them to make them last longer. Thats why people are brainwashed in thinking American cars run forever.

ROFLMAO x 100000000 Dude. Those were examples of high milage American cars running on all-original parts you dumb fuck. Excluding routine maintenance. Manual equipped imports eventually need their clutches replaced and their oil changed too you know. All the examples I mentioned were running on original motors, transmissions, etc. You speak of American cars being able to have their parts swapped as a bad thing. I thought it was good. Save yourself some money. Where as when your Accord dies, its dead. When your Chevy dies, a weekends work and six pack of Alaska's Finest will have it running good-as-new by Monday. My next car will be a Chevy just for the fact that it can last as long as I want it to. Nothing keeps it from making a million miles or more. Not that they break down often, if at all.

Well and you got to remember that American cars have poor quality materials and most people don't like that...

It should be fine. My car's a 2000 and it has 104,000 thousand miles on it - still runs just fine.

It's common sense. Every car article will tell you for example, that Toyota has always aced Chevy, Ford and Dodge in interior quality. Still do. American cars use cheap plastics (except some of their luxury cars, but thats it)
Nearly every company does, i broke the door handle on a Toyota camry once because it was made from such thin plastic.
The Cheyenne's door handles are pure metal. Just saying. @goth dude, what do you drive?

What does what car do I have, have anything to do with our convo? You and other people who already have cars think that is the GREATEST excuse to make someone backdown on an argument about cars, that don't have a car. I am 16. I am looking into my first car now. I am probably going to get a Ford Focus/Honda Accord/Toyota Camry or Dodge Neon. No GM products, no nothing else. Just one of those 4 that I listed.

What does it have to do with this convo? It makes you wonder, how do you know what you're talking about? You've never owned GM Vehicles, how do you know their such shit? You've never owned any foreign cars, how do you know they're so fantastic?
