Its amazing how the japs can design an engine and it runs like the day you drove it off the lot at over 100,000 miles.
Maybe for Mustangs...
Had a 94 Z28 with 154k miles. It did go through two transmissions, but still ran great when we got rid of her.
Had another 94 Z28 with ~115k miles and ran 13.2's (It was a tad modified)
Had a 95 200SX with ~250k miles. Distributor died, and had a horrendous oil leak, but still gave me ~35mpg
2 Honda Del Sol's one at 128k and one at 160k.
My Mustang LX5.0 had ~80k miles when I sold it if I can remember from 12 years ago...I do remember that one having low oil pressure, tranny synchro problems, electrical problems and a major chassis squeak and groan.
Currently on the Z, I got 69k, but starting in Jan I resume my 3k miles per month commute I'l be at 100k by 2009.
I don't like to get cars with <50k miles, With the number of miles I throw on these things, I let the original owner take the depreciation hit.

2003 Touring 6MT; I'm at 170,500+, all original components, clutch, suspension, etc., with no major repairs at all, only thing even remotely wrong is the no power steering problem at idle.
