True!! However, there is one in particular engine that is a beast and super reliable given you do scheduled maintenance!! And its not a Toyota or Honda. I'm talking about GMs 3.8 liter. Commonly found in the Buick LeSabre, Pontiac grand prix, and others. It's a beast man!! But you're right, Toyota and Honda are pretty amazing!!
@@dominicflorov2752 The phrase 'Hands Down' means Easily, or unquestionably. Example of use: “Rob is hands down the biggest threat for me in the competition.” Do you Understand now?
That is a miracle.. Chevrolet should give you a new car.. I used to buy new Chevys all the time and by the time they got close to 100K they started to really give trouble..
2004 Toyota Camry XLE 366,000 miles. I bought it at 346,000 for $1000.00 August 2020. Replaced rear struts, both drive axles, flex pipe twice ( finicky about quiet) great car. 26.4 average miles city/highway. I plan to go to at least 500,000 miles before I consider passing it on.
I have the same car with the 2.4L with 280K on the clock. Other than the common engine oil consumption issue, the car still runs perfect and everything works like it should. I'm retired and mechanically inclined, so if the oil consumption gets out of hand, I'll just drop a new piston and ring kit in it and keep it until someone wrecks it or I die. Best car ever.
Yhea I have the charger 3.6 same engine. Nice looking cars . But needs engine work done at the 100k mark. On the other hand.I have a Kia Forte with 191k it’s running like a champ.
I have a Chevy Impala 3.9 that has over 257000 miles. There have been no major problems, its oil is changed every 3000 miles. I just tuned it up with platinum 100,000 mile plugs for the second time. It is still running strong because I take care of my car! That is the key for longevity!
My 2009 hyundai sonata limited has 298,000 miles. Still drives good as the day I bought her in 2011. All I've basically done was change my oil every 3k miles.
I have a 2002 Toyota Avalon with 480,000 km’s. I bought it 4 months ago, and it hadn’t even had the timing belt changed since the 120,000km mark in 2006. It still runs like a dream. A $1200 timing belt and water pump job was well deserved. It runs better then a new Korean car. Lots of power. Interior is still in great shape, and it handles the snow like a champ. Its staying in the family forever.
I owned a Corolla to over 220k miles, and currently own a Civic with about 150k. The Corolla only got oil changes, tires and brakes for the first 150k+. I changed the clutch myself in it. A great car! I'm enjoying the Civic now as well even with it's higher mileage.
problem with carollas is finding a good stick...my '97 automatic is gutless and gets poor gas mileage, but it did make it to 190k before the first 4 digit repair job and has done well since... civics have always been good to me and they never lack for power, I can't think of a better car value for safety+reliability+responsiveness+economy...however buying them used can be tricky because a lot of people abuse them (I've seen the same issue is pretty common here with acura legends) the 1990 accord ran great and was still running great near 300k, minus a few starter issues, but had those annoying automatic drink dumpers that go back and forth every time you turn the key or open or close your door...which forced the move to a 1999 accord which is still moving right along with 365k after some 4 digit transmission and starter work 10 years ago... my favorite car was my '83 accord, which got 35 to 38 mpg and ran so smooth I had to really watch because a couple times on straight portions of isolated freeway crossing the country I thought I was doing 75 and I may have been well into the three digits...it stopped running so well to the day california came out with their unique gas formulation and the mileage instantly dropped into the mid 20s (but I drove it in other states and it miraculously drove better and got 35+)
@@Doing_Time I think i am "stuck" with my camry for a while. my parents bought new and kept them for a long time. the camry will do the same. nicest car i ever owned. bought it used 07 camry in 2018 with 106k miles and put 32k on it. it had some repairs. new water pump. alt. batt.valve cover gasket. powersteering line replaced. needs sunroof motor. needs driver side regulator. but on the whole, it has been pretty good. if anything happens, will buy a toyota or honda. noting else.
I'm still driving my 2004 red Honda Accord EX. It's got 225k miles on it. One owner. I bought it brand new off the lot with 80 miles on it. Sticker price was $28k, I paid $20,850. I'm finally shopping for a new Honda Accord because the front passenger door doesn't open from the inside anymore, only the driver's side window works, the rear lights on the back of the car all stopped working, the sound system dashboard isn't visible anymore, the electronic key fob no longer works, and there's electrical issues throughout the car. But it's got 4 tires and starts most of the time... 😋 I estimate that I've saved AT LEAST $150k by running that car into the ground, and not buying a new one. I think it's time to retire the beauty. I guess I got my money's worth. 😂
I bought a 1988 Honda accord about 12 years ago for 400$ because it was having some overheating issues turns out someone hat cut the cooling fan wire lol. I still drive it TO THIS DAY!! About to hit 200,000 miles 👍I've probably put about $2000 into it. Just got it running again over this last weekend. Man, this car is just a gift that keeps on giving. 😂
My late father bought me a brand new 1990 Mazda 626 Sedan in Prestige Silver as soon as l turned 18 years old (yes, the one with the oscillating vents!). He paid $32,000 Australian Dollars for it brand new at the time! It's now 32 years old and l still drive it every single day!!! Has never failed me and l cannot part with it. It's absolutely outstanding!!! It's clocked up 500,000 kilometres (310,000 miles!!!). Unbelievable!!! Still looks, feels and drives like new. I absolutely LOVE IT so much. It's my first and only car!!!! Love the nostalgia. Big hello from Melbourne, Australia!!🇦🇺
My 2007 Toyota Corolla S, is still going strong at 130,000 miles!!! I purchased it in October of 2006 and have had no major repairs. 16 years old next month!!!😊
Wow I have a 2015 Corolla S and it already has over 94000 miles. I've put 25000 miles myself since I bought it in 2019. Your Corolla should last you another 16 years. Great, reliable cars
I own a 2011 Acura TL and currently I'm at 393k miles. This car is a beast, it was been nothing but a great car overall. I have serviced the car myself, oil changes, spark plugs, breaks, shocks and once the timing belt at 225k miles. Funny i bought a replacement engine 2yrs ago and it's just sitting there waiting for the original to give up. lol
2015 Mitsubishi mirage over 200.000. Miles and still going strong , oil change every 5,000 miles and transmission fluid change every 30,000 it's a CVT !
The Champ for me is the 2005 toyota corolla S 5 spd manuel 4 cylinder with 600,000 miles gave it to my son about 3 yrs ago still running good and not smoking.
@@notmebutyou8350 But not many of ANYTHING else. Hyundai and Kia have long warranties on them that from what I have heard are never honored if there is an issue. They always find some way to wiggle out of fixing the problem under warranty and blame it on the owner of the vehicle for not doing proper maintenance. Chevy, ford and dodge are all junk and wont go past 150k miles without major issues and repairs, 100% going to have to replace that AC unit before 150k if you live here in Texas and it's going to cost you at least $2k if it's not under warranty. Anything Stellantis makes (Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ram) avoid like the plague. And don't buy any Honda/Acura 1.5l turbo engines unless you want headaches down the line due to oil dilution issues, better to buy the 2.0l non turbo NA engine for longevity.
2005 Nissan Frontier 4.0L V6... sold it running like New with 225K Miles on it, only fluid changes, spark plugs once at 125K.. currently own a used 07' Ford freestyle with a 3.0L duratec and CVT, with 255K miles on it and it still runs smoothly. All it needed was fluids changed and new plugs and coil packs. I'd imagine lots of cars could last over 200K if they were maintained properly.
How you take care of a car plays a significant role, no matter the quality. Yes a high-quality vehicle is better but additional TLC does help. My only American car was a 2000 Lincoln LS that I purchased in 03 with 50000 miles. Traded it in in 2015 with 267000 miles. The only major issue was the air conditioner was out during trade in. Car was still running strong and still beautiful. That's not by accident but how I take care of my cars.
Precisely. Many owners today lack the know-how of vehicle maintenance and blame the manufacturer instead of their ignorance. A BMW M3 can go past 200k the same as a Camry - because I've done it.
@@ssjlkrillin That's one of the main reasons why I've made it a point to learn how to maintain my own car. Unfortunately, the most I can do is change my brake pads and my rotors. And on my previous vehicle, changing the spark plugs was very easy. I would have learned how to change my own oil, but I don't have a jack that can get my car high enough for me to get under it.
there are 2 type of vehicle owners, One that buys a car based on reviews and reliability but never actually maintain it at all if ever. And the second are vehicle owners that buy a vehicle regardless the make but properly maintain the vehicle when needed be. The second car owner can have a garbage car but its still in better shape than the 1st owner that has a new toyota but never maintained it for 3+ years and counting. Thereby the second car owner has longer use of his or her buy, and the 1st owner is looking for another new car to trash.
Maintenance your car, treat her right, and she will not let you down. I drive a 2010 Dodge charger rt with 180000 miles, and all i ever did was get a her a new radiator . Change that oil when it's do, flush brake, and other fluids. Rotate those tires, get that front-end alignment, if you're not tired, wash her or take her through the wash to prevent rust. Dont race or push her hard, and you will be fine. I bought my rt with 50 thousand miles, and she still runs like a champion.
Got a 2016 Toyota Corolla back in 2018...was a Florida rental sold to me by Hertz $2.5k below avg resale. Only spent for new battery, 4 new tires, front rotors/brake pads, front driver's side caliper, & just the oil changes like once a year *light driving*, maintanance mileage interval checks & few rounds of wiper blades & that's it over 4+ yrs now. No check engine lights, sensor replacement or under the hood or exhaust disasters. Can't complain. Worth the same 4 yrs later due to chip/inventory shortages. Got lucky.
I had a 2006 Avalon with 225k miles and sold it. Shit kept falling apart after I kept getting parts replaced with brand new parts. The same parts I would get replaced would go after a couple months. I was like wtf man 😤🤬
07 camry 146k . i think you are right. i have no doubt 200k is achievable. from there, who knows. i like th 15 to the 17's so i will go with one of those.
I have a 1983 Datsun Maxima wagon, 300k miles. Straight 6 fuel injection. Never been in a repair shop. I do all the maintenance and repairs, which were minor. It still runs like new.
I love my 08 civic EX. 115k miles and never had any issues outside of regular maintenance (Spark plugs, Ignition coils, Oil + filter, tires, brakes, battery and ground cable) The automatic transmission has always felt wonky though and it rarely shifts very smoothly... engine is bulletproof though! Mine was totaled 6 years ago, I just bent the axle back into alignment and keep driving it haha.
My 2001 Hyundai Accent had 310,000 kilometres on it when I gave it to my best friend to keep driving. It had no mechanical problems and was perfectly free of rust!
From all accounts, that's a rarity. The presenter based his analysis on the percentage of cars sold with high mileage. Hyundai and Kia are notorious for having bad engines, even to the point of having mass recalls of ALL models within specific years.
You should call Hyundai and let them know. Bet they will be surprised. If your information is accurate- you have a RARE example. Hyundais' and Kias go through engines like nobody's business. Glad to hear you got great service from yours- I'll never own either of those again.
I currently have a 2008 Hyundai accent hatchback manual transmission going super strong at 140k miles. I got it as a gift back in 2020. It’s the second most reliable car that I’ve own. I’ve only had to replace a purge valve up to this point with regular oil/filter changes.
I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima that has 329000km on the clock and is still going strong. I know its not in the 2016 to 2020 range like the video suggests but it was the last of the good Maximas before they had transmission issues after 2002. If you don't lead foot the car too often its economical especially on long trips despite using premium unleaded as a requirement. Great car and it only cost me $1000. My old man has a Camry and he just loves it. Regular service and it goes forever.
Broo I want a fifth Gen soo bad, I have a 1991 maxima and it has never let me stranded but it is slightly lacking in power and the transmission is poo 😂 they underbuilt the transmissions on this generation. It shifts, but it shifts way too slowly. Tuned for confort, not for speed
1995 civic ex 280K miles so far and the engine is fine. OEM suspension and other parts lasted around 20 years before needing to be replaced. Aftermarket lasts as little as 2-3. Civics would have a higher percentage of >200K if they were driven by the people who drive the avalons.
I regret getting rid of my ‘91 Hatchback with manual transmission, such a fun little car, I bought it brand new in 1992 for $7500 and paid the $92 for the passenger side mirror, that was an option.
Some Japanese cars from the 90s seem to be immortals, and it’s normal to see them on Philippine roads daily: 7th Gen Toyota Corollas (91-around 97/98), 4th Gen Mitsubishi Lancers (91-95), 6th Gen Honda Civic (95-2000), and 3rd Gen Nissan Sentra (B13, 90-95). Seeing models a generation before or after of these cars I mentioned isn’t a rare sight as well. I personally own a Nissan 1994 Sentra B13 with 150k+ mi/240k+ kms on the odo and it’s still driving smoothly, still with its stock radiator and compressor that delivers good A/C. So far the only major replacement part it’s had is a new carburetor which made running even better with better fuel mileage.
Our 2005 camery XLE runs just like new.. We are the third owners it has clocked 325.000 miles. We had a small rust spot repared in january. We bought it at a garage sale. Plan on driving fr a while to and from work.
I drive a 2009 Camry XLE V6. It currently has 335,000 miles on it and has never been in the shop for a mechanical or other type of repair, just routine wear and tear for brakes, batteries, tires and I did replace the struts. I still get 34-36 highway MPG. I still find it an enjoyable ride and as much as I'd love a new car, I would find this one hard to give up.
paul 07 se with `144k. I have had to replace things surprisingly. after 120k, water pump, fuel pump, front bearings. lower control arms are going. I drive in ny/nj. that may be a reason.
@@subaruamazon Urban roads are brutal on cars. I live in Chicago and sympathize with you. My 2006 Toyota Matrix XR - famous for lasting forever - needed $3K in suspension repairs last year.
All cars can go over 200000 as long as you do basic maintenance it's how often you have to fix major repairs that makes a difference between brands I will stick with Toyota and Hondas.
Not all cars. BMWs and Mercedes Benza have plastic parts surrounding the engine and electric sensors that wear out quickly than Toyotas and Hondas Most Nissan cars with CVT transmissions wear out because of transmission problems Luxury cars like Lamborghini are fashionable cars. They don't have such longetivity
I own a 2004 Chevy Impala bought it brand new and just went over 207,000 miles with no major mechanical issues and I still drive it on long road trips like yesterday we went on an 8 hour road trip and I rides almost like new. Proud owner!,,
Chevy gang...they doubt the Impalas ever time when they're fantastic vehicles...i brought mine new and she still riding with no issues...u take care of them and they will last
I currently own the following cars that are over 200k miles that are still running strong. All stock. -1995 Lexus SC300 5speed manual w/ 230k miles. -2000 Toyota Camry LE V6 5speed manual w/ 220k miles. -2005 Toyota Corolla XRS 6speed w/ 270k miles
1999 Buick Regal, 213k miles and still running beautifully. Reliable, economical, quiet, comfortable, and great to drive. Good high-speed cruiser. Maintenance by the book is a good part of the reason for the reliability.
Had a 98 Regal, it was a fairly reliable car BUT the best part was it was easy to work on when it needed any repairs. The main issue with it was corrosion (living in the rust belt).
I still have and drive a 2008 V6 Accord with 196,000 miles. I use it for business, inspecting construction job sites piling the miles for $.67/mile rather than using my almost new 2021 Accord with a 2.0 turbo or my insanely expensive to drive pickup truck. My 2008 drives like new, looks shiny and perfect, everything works, no slop in the steering or suspension and the motor makes great power and is lively and responsive to drive. It's almost free to drive, regular synthetic oil changes and 27 mpg, no depreciation. I bought it from a Navy pilot being deployed for $7500 in 2018 when it had 90,000 miles. I could get $5000-$6000 for it now, making the Accord close to a worlds record bargain. But I don't want to sell it (I tend to personify) because I think of the car as being a brave and sturdy overachiever (like me, hopefully?). Compared to my much newer vehicles, when it comes to vehicle dynamics, I'm giving nothing up when driving my V6 Accord.
Toyota Prius definitely should be in the list. I rented a 2012 Toyota Prius V for a couple of months and by the time I returned it, the car had 525000km on the clock. It was very fuel efficient and didn't have any oil leak. And still I see the very same car around my living area as an Uber Taxi.
My 13 year old Prius has 238K miles on it, and is still running strong. Nine of those years were on icy Minnesota roads. I never expected a hybrid to be so durable.
I'm at 266,000 miles on my 2012 Hyundai Elantra. Still have the original AC system and it still maintains it's oil level between oil changes. Theirs a lady who has reached over a million miles on her 2013 Elantra and she didn't have to replace the transmission until she passed a half million miles on it. My goal is to reach half that.
My 2016 Toyota Avalon hybrid is at almost 180k miles and the ONLY repair it’s ever needed was a bad strut on my passenger side AFTER 7 YEARS. I don’t even fault it for that, because the roads near me are absolutely horrid & I’m positive that’s what caused it. Everything else has been purely maintenance. Sure it’s not thrilling to drive but you don’t get a hybrid Avalon for that purpose. It’s comfortable, quiet, reliable, practical, cheap to maintain and great on gas. It’s perfect at what it’s intended for.
I own a 2016 Toyota Avalon and it has over 118, 000 miles on it and I am very happy with my car. Toyota vehicles do last very long time and hold it's value after years.
@@licorice35 well I would see you're not a Toyota guy toward themselves more cars than any other car in America it is Toyota in Honda that make the best engines for the past 30 years sure you have some cars that won't last 200 300,000 in Chrysler Ford in GM but in general 80 90% of all tortas just doing basic maintenance have the cheapest labor to fix them annually per year and have more cars on the road with over two different thousand any other car brand this is all true facts that you can look up Toyota and a Honda specially Honda Accord and cigarettes and have lunch and camera dominate the best long-lasting and best answers that give you no problems true fact

My aunt had a 1998 Toyota Corolla that she drove for 19 years....I'm not sure what the milage was on it when she traded it in on a new Corolla, but the car still ran and drove like it was new! The manager at the Toyota dealership bought the car for his elderly mother-in-law. I think that car was bulletproof!
1997 Toyota Corolla new owner here at 320,000 km. Took it to mechanic to check since I bought hand passed on after 5 owners and they say nothing is wrong with the engine.
@@andyd3447 I think a Corolla might be one of the best cars on the road....and it's surprising how comfortable they are and how well they drive. I don't have a Corolla, but they sure are great cars.
2010 Acura TSX (4cyl). 196,000 miles and running strong! Basic maintenance. Only had to replace a seeping front strut, so I replaced both. Besides that, all good!
2009 Acura TL SHAWD with 199,800 miles replace timing belt, water pump and tension pully plugs at 144,000 miles. the only thing that has not been replaced was the starter, I bought the car in April of 2013 and paid it off in 2015. have not had a car payment in over 7 years, can't wait to hit the 200,000 miles sometimes before 2023.
2007 Kia Spectra and reached 220K last month in August. I'm the only owner this car has known and the only major replacement I've done to it is changed the timing belt at 145K as a preventative maintenence, it had not ripped up on me. Awesome car but it has not been my daily driver in a couple years only because my truck is much better suited for my work.
Changing a timing belt is not a preventive maintenance. It is mandatory... And you should normally change it at 100 000 kms (60 000 miles). Changing it at 145 000 miles and not blowing the engine up (if it is true) has little to do with the car itself, and everything to do with luck. Because 99 % of OEM timing belts used in any kind of car nowadays are made at the same place in Mexico.
@Ben Gagnon : Correct plus he owns a Kia. 🤣 On a side note, most Japanese vehicles have timing chains that last for life unless you are lazy on oil changes.
I have a 2008 Chrysler Sebring Hardtop Convertible that just turned 100k miles. Own it only 3yrs with the 3.5V6 engine. Runs great very smooth. Only have done maintenance, and recently a little repair to the A/C . Love this car !!
My Chrysler 200 has 150k and the AC needs fix as it probably has a leak.. the only thing i don’t like is the battery under the engine and the way the engine is placed. Cant see anything
My mom has a 2004 Toyota Camry with a V6 engine. It has about 380000 miles. Their biggest repair was something with the catalytic converter and on board computer. Costed them about 700 dollars. The car runs great still. Super reliable. Too bad they purchased a new SUV and now the Camry just sits in the drive way.
The 1.8L is the better engine. I have a 2006 Matrix XR that I bought new. It only has 72K miles on it, but it has survived 17 Chicago winters with zero rust. Had major suspension repairs done last year - urban roads are brutal, but my mechanic said that because it is a Matrix, a $3K repair bill beats replacing it. I'm 75 and plan to drive it until I am in an urn.

My 2004 v6 toyota highlander has 247,000 miles on it the engine blew at about 235,000 but that is the only major thing that went wrong with it. I hope to run it to 500,000.wish me luck!
My sister-in-law drives a 2006 Avalon looks brand new inside and outside still runs like a top not sure how many miles it has on it but she committed long distances before she retired. Love Toyota!
That wasn't true when I owned domestic brands and they were new however since I switched to Honda and Toyota I never have any issues at all.. I always take care of my cars better than most and they are garaged.
This was great information. I have a 2006 Toyota Camry and it's close to 200,000 miles and still running smooth, don't get me wrong, there has been several things I had to fix or replace but it's because of wear and tear.
… oh, there aren’t any “bulletproof” vehicles, out there - they ALL break, at one time or another … just have to maintain them and drive sensibly … - like you prolly did 👍

2009 Toyota Camry 2.4 aka oil burner currently @ 216,000 miles, 70 miles a day still runs like a champ. Uses around 4 ounces of oil per 1,000 miles. Have not replaced anything on the drive line or steering system. I did replace the radiator & valve cover gasket @ 191,000 miles and have replaced the headlight assemblies twice due to glazing. Other things have been normal wear items like brakes, batteries, light bulbs, spark plugs, etc. Everything still works like it should. We'll see how long it goes.
If you start adding marvel mystery oil about 6 to 8 oz to an oil change the engine will last longer and it will clean and free sticking rings.. I use it in all my new vehicles which are always Toyota's and Hondas.
@@charlesjackson1700 Yeah I use Marvel as well in the Camry once a month in the gas. I also use it in the gas of my motorcycles, snowblower, generator etc. It helps keep the carbs clean for which I do run non ethanol fuel in. We used to have a chevy equinox with the 2.5 4 cylinder that burned oil way more than the Camry. I ran a full bottle of Marvel in the oil of the equinox and it did decrease the oil consumption drastically but only for a short time. I would imagine if I had done it more it may have prolonged it. We sold the equinox not long ago. As for the Camry, only using around 2/3's of a quart of oil every 5,000 miles is not bad. Plus I am waiting to see if the oil consumption is going to reduce anymore just using Amsoil otherwise I would use Marvel. Also I am gonna start to push the oil drain interval some to see if the oil consumption stays the same, gets better or starts to get worse. I picked this Camry up for cheap so I don't mind seeing how Amsoil is going to do with time. I know people have mixed feelings about using Amsoil which is understandable. For me it has worked out good. It is the most expensive if you buy it by the quart at retail but if you get a preferred account it gets 25% cheaper by the quart and then gets cheaper than that if you buy it in larger quantity. I use the 0w20 in 3 Toyotas currently. The last time I purchased Amsoil 0w20 I bought a drum of it which worked out to be $8.55 a quart. Of course oil has gone up in price since then but being I have a drum of it I will not need to buy oil for a while. Hopefully the price of oil will come down when I need to get more. We'll see.
@@dooflicker1 Glad to see someone that knows that Marvel Mystery is a good product.. Those Camrys from the 2007 through 2009 had those engines that were known for burning oil and many of those were replaced under warranty.. The one you have is still running well.. and not consuming that much oil. The Marvel mystery oil will definitely keep the rings clean and keep them from sludging up and sticking. It would have been good if it could have been used from the start. I know the price of oil has skyrocketed as well along with gas. I know a lot of people swear that by that Amisol oil. It is very expensive. You take care of your vehicles that's for sure.
Does the burning oil you see some on the floor? or it has that oil smell when it gets hot? I have a sienna 2009 225k miles and change oil twice a year before winter and after winter. Probably just 1k to 2k miles driven in a year. Don't really know if it burns oil because by the time it lose oil. New oil level is refilled.
I had a 2008 Camry but I got a notice about burning oil had test done at dealer found it was burning oil so dealer fixed the pistons and I forgot what other things in engine for free plus had dash replace also sticky dash for free as well remember all that oil it burns ends up somewhere (ahem) the cats
I got a 2002 Toyota Tundra with over 240,000 still running like new. Original paint no Accidents. Loved it from day 1, I also own a BMW convertible and a Mercedes S550, and I still love driving my Tundra over those😁

@@denisewilliams4022 I own two kia fortes and all over 300,000 miles with no major repair work ever done. Just oil changes, atf changes, tires thats it. Maybe a spark plugs here and there bit thats it. that's what they mean by reliable pal.
My 2018 Civic EXT bought new in June 2018 currently has 118,300 trouble free miles averaging 33.8 mpg. The only repair done was the AC condenser at 116,000 miles (which was fully covered under the extended warranty issued by Honda). I’m expecting 300,000 miles with no major repair on the engine or transmission.
Honda oil dilution is a myth. Think about it, Honda has sold hundreds of millions of these worldwide over the past 8 years and almost all those cars are still on the road and running. Sure there might have been one or two owners who abused or didn’t maintain their cars properly but that still leaves 99.99999% of cars that are still running perfectly fine.
@@Alumnikiid Meh the oil dilution gate was over exaggerated. It surely did happen to just a handful of engines outta literally MILLIONS (Civics + CRVs wold worldwide). Those cars are lasting 500K miles with good care, and then some more miles. Hondas are built to last.
I have a 2010 Mercury Mariner that's still going strong at nearly 180K miles and still runs great. My SIL has a 2012 Hyundai Accent with 130K miles and runs great too. Since we maintain our cars we'll, there's no reason why they won't last for years to come. I'm 68 now and I'm sure that both of them will be on the road long after I'm gone. It's great not to worry about a car payment these days.
Had a 94 Buick Skylark (bought it a year old with 27,000 miles on it) with the 3.1 V6 that had over 300,000 miles on it when we sold it to a guy who kept driving it. Original engine, original transmission with no major repairs, just regular maintenance. That GM 3.1 v6 was a real gem of a motor.
An old girlfriend of mine had a 2004 Toyota Highlander 4 cyl. Bought it new and put over 400,000 miles on it. Had the rear suspension rebuilt at 300,000. The engine sounded rough at the end but I really think it just needed a timing chain and guides to quiet it down.
Toyota Corolla - 14 years old, 212000 miles, finally retired because a faulty oil change let the engine dry out on a long run. We screwed up by getting the oil change just as we started our trip - the engine seized 316 miles into the trip, turned out the oil filter had been installed wrong and the oil leaked out.
2005 Pontiac Vibe ( same as Toyota Matrix) 190,000 miles with scheduled maintenance. Minor repairs. I’ve noticed at 6,000 mile oil changes the oil is never dirty, unlike most other cars I’ve owned.
I own a 2010 Infiniti G37x 328 horse power with 156k miles and all I ever did was give it an oil change and maybe a sensor. Pulls and drives like a dream.
The G37 is so underrated. My 2010 Infiniti G37 has been very pleasant. I have 224,000 miles with no issues or lights on the dash. Car still drives like new.
I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9 4WD that has almost 260k on the odometer. I also have a 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS with over 170k on it. The main problem with the SS trims with the V8 is the transmission. I replaced mine at 135k and so far my Monte has really gave me no issues since then.
I got 276,800 out of my 1992 Dodge Shadow America with the 2.2 liter 4 cylinder engine . I used non-synthetic Pennzoil 10w30 oil changed every 3000 miles .

1998 maxima bought brand new in 1998, it now has 397,000 miles. Doesn’t burn any oil yet. A friend of mine also had a 2010 altima that went 200k miles before he sold it for something else. Great cars.

I have a 2004 Saab 93 Aero, with a manual transmission. The miles on this car is 193k miles. Still driving like new. I spent some money on upgrades to the stereo with back up and front cameras, rims and suspension, and added ac seats. The vehicle has been very good, no major anything. The only bad thing is the premium 93 octane fuel requirement.

I have the same car with the 2.4L with 280K on the clock. Other than the common engine oil consumption issue, the car still runs perfect and everything works like it should. I'm retired and mechanically inclined, so if the oil consumption gets out of hand, I'll just drop a new piston and ring kit in it and keep it until someone wrecks it or I die. Best car ever.

Cvt? What year
I would love to know what year your corolla was?
camry 138k miles. that corolla car is bulletproof.
problem with carollas is finding a good stick...my '97 automatic is gutless and gets poor gas mileage, but it did make it to 190k before the first 4 digit repair job and has done well since...
civics have always been good to me and they never lack for power, I can't think of a better car value for safety+reliability+responsiveness+economy...however buying them used can be tricky because a lot of people abuse them (I've seen the same issue is pretty common here with acura legends)
the 1990 accord ran great and was still running great near 300k, minus a few starter issues, but had those annoying automatic drink dumpers that go back and forth every time you turn the key or open or close your door...which forced the move to a 1999 accord which is still moving right along with 365k after some 4 digit transmission and starter work 10 years ago...
my favorite car was my '83 accord, which got 35 to 38 mpg and ran so smooth I had to really watch because a couple times on straight portions of isolated freeway crossing the country I thought I was doing 75 and I may have been well into the three digits...it stopped running so well to the day california came out with their unique gas formulation and the mileage instantly dropped into the mid 20s (but I drove it in other states and it miraculously drove better and got 35+)

But it's got 4 tires and starts most of the time... 😋 I estimate that I've saved AT LEAST $150k by running that car into the ground, and not buying a new one.

@@notmebutyou8350 But not many of ANYTHING else. Hyundai and Kia have long warranties on them that from what I have heard are never honored if there is an issue. They always find some way to wiggle out of fixing the problem under warranty and blame it on the owner of the vehicle for not doing proper maintenance. Chevy, ford and dodge are all junk and wont go past 150k miles without major issues and repairs, 100% going to have to replace that AC unit before 150k if you live here in Texas and it's going to cost you at least $2k if it's not under warranty. Anything Stellantis makes (Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ram) avoid like the plague. And don't buy any Honda/Acura 1.5l turbo engines unless you want headaches down the line due to oil dilution issues, better to buy the 2.0l non turbo NA engine for longevity.

I'd imagine lots of cars could last over 200K if they were maintained properly.
How you take care of a car plays a significant role, no matter the quality. Yes a high-quality vehicle is better but additional TLC does help. My only American car was a 2000 Lincoln LS that I purchased in 03 with 50000 miles. Traded it in in 2015 with 267000 miles. The only major issue was the air conditioner was out during trade in. Car was still running strong and still beautiful. That's not by accident but how I take care of my cars.
Precisely. Many owners today lack the know-how of vehicle maintenance and blame the manufacturer instead of their ignorance. A BMW M3 can go past 200k the same as a Camry - because I've done it.
@@ssjlkrillin That's one of the main reasons why I've made it a point to learn how to maintain my own car. Unfortunately, the most I can do is change my brake pads and my rotors. And on my previous vehicle, changing the spark plugs was very easy. I would have learned how to change my own oil, but I don't have a jack that can get my car high enough for me to get under it.
Not everyone wants to spend their time working on cars, thats one reason why Toyotas are popular
there are 2 type of vehicle owners, One that buys a car based on reviews and reliability but never actually maintain it at all if ever. And the second are vehicle owners that buy a vehicle regardless the make but properly maintain the vehicle when needed be. The second car owner can have a garbage car but its still in better shape than the 1st owner that has a new toyota but never maintained it for 3+ years and counting. Thereby the second car owner has longer use of his or her buy, and the 1st owner is looking for another new car to trash.
Did you do any maintenance outside oil changes and tires/brakes?
Maintenance your car, treat her right, and she will not let you down. I drive a 2010 Dodge charger rt with 180000 miles, and all i ever did was get a her a new radiator . Change that oil when it's do, flush brake, and other fluids. Rotate those tires, get that front-end alignment, if you're not tired, wash her or take her through the wash to prevent rust. Dont race or push her hard, and you will be fine. I bought my rt with 50 thousand miles, and she still runs like a champion.
Got a 2016 Toyota Corolla back in 2018...was a Florida rental sold to me by Hertz $2.5k below avg resale. Only spent for new battery, 4 new tires, front rotors/brake pads, front driver's side caliper, & just the oil changes like once a year *light driving*, maintanance mileage interval checks & few rounds of wiper blades & that's it over 4+ yrs now. No check engine lights, sensor replacement or under the hood or exhaust disasters. Can't complain. Worth the same 4 yrs later due to chip/inventory shortages. Got lucky.

From all accounts, that's a rarity. The presenter based his analysis on the percentage of cars sold with high mileage. Hyundai and Kia are notorious for having bad engines, even to the point of having mass recalls of ALL models within specific years.
You should call Hyundai and let them know. Bet they will be surprised. If your information is accurate- you have a RARE example. Hyundais' and Kias go through engines like nobody's business. Glad to hear you got great service from yours- I'll never own either of those again.

Some Japanese cars from the 90s seem to be immortals, and it’s normal to see them on Philippine roads daily: 7th Gen Toyota Corollas (91-around 97/98), 4th Gen Mitsubishi Lancers (91-95), 6th Gen Honda Civic (95-2000), and 3rd Gen Nissan Sentra (B13, 90-95). Seeing models a generation before or after of these cars I mentioned isn’t a rare sight as well. I personally own a Nissan 1994 Sentra B13 with 150k+ mi/240k+ kms on the odo and it’s still driving smoothly, still with its stock radiator and compressor that delivers good A/C. So far the only major replacement part it’s had is a new carburetor which made running even better with better fuel mileage.

Not all cars. BMWs and Mercedes Benza have plastic parts surrounding the engine and electric sensors that wear out quickly than Toyotas and Hondas
Most Nissan cars with CVT transmissions wear out because of transmission problems
Luxury cars like Lamborghini are fashionable cars. They don't have such longetivity
@@edobwoy that why I said major repairs.
I own a 2004 Chevy Impala bought it brand new and just went over 207,000 miles with no major mechanical issues and I still drive it on long road trips like yesterday we went on an 8 hour road trip and I rides almost like new. Proud owner!,,
Of course man, they’re a fantastic vehicle! All the Toyota fanboys here live in dreamland.

I currently own the following cars that are over 200k miles that are still running strong. All stock.
-1995 Lexus SC300 5speed manual w/ 230k miles.
-2000 Toyota Camry LE V6 5speed manual w/ 220k miles.
-2005 Toyota Corolla XRS 6speed w/ 270k miles
I have the 1999 Toyota Camry LE V6 5 speed manual w/395K miles on it - runs like new - no major engine issues ever - Can't kill it - LOL
The Camry V6 /5spd us a great car. I had an 1985 SE and it was great.
1999 Buick Regal, 213k miles and still running beautifully. Reliable, economical, quiet, comfortable, and great to drive. Good high-speed cruiser. Maintenance by the book is a good part of the reason for the reliability.
People sleep on Buicks! My uncle had an '01 Century that was a beast of a car.
I had a Regal a long time ago and I really liked it. Nice looking car too
Had a 98 Regal, it was a fairly reliable car BUT the best part was it was easy to work on when it needed any repairs. The main issue with it was corrosion (living in the rust belt).
My 2013 regal just blew its engine at 107k miles, wish they still made them good
@@bradycremeans8830 that's because they don't... "Buick" is just a rebadged Opel nowadays.
I still have and drive a 2008 V6 Accord with 196,000 miles. I use it for business, inspecting construction job sites piling the miles for $.67/mile rather than using my almost new 2021 Accord with a 2.0 turbo or my insanely expensive to drive pickup truck. My 2008 drives like new, looks shiny and perfect, everything works, no slop in the steering or suspension and the motor makes great power and is lively and responsive to drive. It's almost free to drive, regular synthetic oil changes and 27 mpg, no depreciation. I bought it from a Navy pilot being deployed for $7500 in 2018 when it had 90,000 miles. I could get $5000-$6000 for it now, making the Accord close to a worlds record bargain. But I don't want to sell it (I tend to personify) because I think of the car as being a brave and sturdy overachiever (like me, hopefully?). Compared to my much newer vehicles, when it comes to vehicle dynamics, I'm giving nothing up when driving my V6 Accord.
My 2018 Camry SE gets 40+ mpg on the highway. My best non hybrid car I've ever had
07 camry 137k didnt want hybrid. afraid of the technology and repairs. but a battery isnt that expensive on camry. tesla - forget about it.
I have a 2016 Camry and after 60,000 miles my mpg has jumped to 37 -38 mpg on trips. Used to be 34-35 mpg
No changes on my part. Same tires .
Toyota Prius definitely should be in the list. I rented a 2012 Toyota Prius V for a couple of months and by the time I returned it, the car had 525000km on the clock. It was very fuel efficient and didn't have any oil leak. And still I see the very same car around my living area as an Uber Taxi.
In Panamá Prius unrelieble lots of issue
My 13 year old Prius has 238K miles on it, and is still running strong. Nine of those years were on icy Minnesota roads. I never expected a hybrid to be so durable.
It’s not on the list because they consider it a hatchback.

I'm at 266,000 miles on my 2012 Hyundai Elantra. Still have the original AC system and it still maintains it's oil level between oil changes. Theirs a lady who has reached over a million miles on her 2013 Elantra and she didn't have to replace the transmission until she passed a half million miles on it. My goal is to reach half that.
My 2016 Toyota Avalon hybrid is at almost 180k miles and the ONLY repair it’s ever needed was a bad strut on my passenger side AFTER 7 YEARS. I don’t even fault it for that, because the roads near me are absolutely horrid & I’m positive that’s what caused it. Everything else has been purely maintenance. Sure it’s not thrilling to drive but you don’t get a hybrid Avalon for that purpose. It’s comfortable, quiet, reliable, practical, cheap to maintain and great on gas. It’s perfect at what it’s intended for.
I own a 2016 Toyota Avalon and it has over 118, 000 miles on it and I am very happy with my car. Toyota vehicles do last very long time and hold it's value after years.

My aunt had a 1998 Toyota Corolla that she drove for 19 years....I'm not sure what the milage was on it when she traded it in on a new Corolla, but the car

@@andyd3447 I think a Corolla might be one of the best cars on the road....and it's surprising how comfortable they are and how well they drive. I don't have a Corolla, but they sure are great cars.
Camry and Corolla are the benchmark for reliability.
2010 Acura TSX (4cyl). 196,000 miles and running strong! Basic maintenance. Only had to replace a seeping front strut, so I replaced both. Besides that, all good!
2009 Acura TL SHAWD with 199,800 miles replace timing belt, water pump and tension pully plugs at 144,000 miles. the only thing that has not been replaced was the starter, I bought the car in April of 2013 and paid it off in 2015. have not had a car payment in over 7 years, can't wait to hit the 200,000 miles sometimes before 2023.
2007 Kia Spectra and reached 220K last month in August. I'm the only owner this car has known and the only major replacement I've done to it is changed the timing belt at 145K as a preventative maintenence, it had not ripped up on me. Awesome car but it has not been my daily driver in a couple years only because my truck is much better suited for my work.
Kia and Hyundai are trash.
I call bullshit on your claim.
Changing a timing belt is not a preventive maintenance. It is mandatory... And you should normally change it at 100 000 kms (60 000 miles). Changing it at 145 000 miles and not blowing the engine up (if it is true) has little to do with the car itself, and everything to do with luck. Because 99 % of OEM timing belts used in any kind of car nowadays are made at the same place in Mexico.
@Ben Gagnon : Correct plus he owns a Kia. 🤣
On a side note, most Japanese vehicles have timing chains that last for life unless you are lazy on oil changes.
Did you still have the original alternator, AC compressor, or starter on your Spectra? I have a 07 Rondo and only have the original starter on it
I have a 2008 Chrysler Sebring Hardtop Convertible that just turned 100k miles. Own it only 3yrs with the 3.5V6 engine. Runs great very smooth. Only have done maintenance, and recently a little repair to the A/C . Love this car !!
My Chrysler 200 has 150k and the AC needs fix as it probably has a leak.. the only thing i don’t like is the battery under the engine and the way the engine is placed. Cant see anything
I have Honda Civic 2007, and I have 261,000 miles. I am very happy.

The 1.8L is the better engine. I have a 2006 Matrix XR that I bought new. It only has 72K miles on it, but it has survived 17 Chicago winters with zero rust. Had major suspension repairs done last year - urban roads are brutal, but my mechanic said that because it is a Matrix, a $3K repair bill beats replacing it.

It’s also how you drive and where you drive will have a huge influence on how long something lasts.
That wasn't true when I owned domestic brands and they were new however since I switched to Honda and Toyota I never have any issues at all.. I always take care of my cars better than most and they are garaged.

This was great information. I have a 2006 Toyota Camry and it's close to 200,000 miles and still running smooth, don't get me wrong, there has been several things I had to fix or replace but it's because of wear and tear.
… oh, there aren’t any “bulletproof” vehicles, out there - they ALL break, at one time or another … just have to maintain them and drive sensibly … - like you prolly did 👍
Why is the 300 on this list but not the Charger/Challenger w the same engine?
@@michaelbuzzee1964 Because Charger drivers are more likely to drive their "sporty" cars to death, and the Challenger additionally isn't a sedan, but a coupe.
Just make sure you change the oil as scheduled and your repairs will remain minor

2009 Toyota Camry 2.4 aka oil burner currently @ 216,000 miles, 70 miles a day still runs like a champ. Uses around 4 ounces of oil per 1,000 miles. Have not replaced anything on the drive line or steering system. I did replace the radiator & valve cover gasket @ 191,000 miles and have replaced the headlight assemblies twice due to glazing. Other things have been normal wear items like brakes, batteries, light bulbs, spark plugs, etc. Everything still works like it should. We'll see how long it goes.
If you start adding marvel mystery oil about 6 to 8 oz to an oil change the engine will last longer and it will clean and free sticking rings.. I use it in all my new vehicles which are always Toyota's and Hondas.
@@charlesjackson1700 Yeah I use Marvel as well in the Camry once a month in the gas. I also use it in the gas of my motorcycles, snowblower, generator etc. It helps keep the carbs clean for which I do run non ethanol fuel in. We used to have a chevy equinox with the 2.5 4 cylinder that burned oil way more than the Camry. I ran a full bottle of Marvel in the oil of the equinox and it did decrease the oil consumption drastically but only for a short time. I would imagine if I had done it more it may have prolonged it. We sold the equinox not long ago. As for the Camry, only using around 2/3's of a quart of oil every 5,000 miles is not bad. Plus I am waiting to see if the oil consumption is going to reduce anymore just using Amsoil otherwise I would use Marvel. Also I am gonna start to push the oil drain interval some to see if the oil consumption stays the same, gets better or starts to get worse. I picked this Camry up for cheap so I don't mind seeing how Amsoil is going to do with time. I know people have mixed feelings about using Amsoil which is understandable. For me it has worked out good. It is the most expensive if you buy it by the quart at retail but if you get a preferred account it gets 25% cheaper by the quart and then gets cheaper than that if you buy it in larger quantity. I use the 0w20 in 3 Toyotas currently. The last time I purchased Amsoil 0w20 I bought a drum of it which worked out to be $8.55 a quart. Of course oil has gone up in price since then but being I have a drum of it I will not need to buy oil for a while. Hopefully the price of oil will come down when I need to get more. We'll see.
@@dooflicker1 Glad to see someone that knows that Marvel Mystery is a good product.. Those Camrys from the 2007 through 2009 had those engines that were known for burning oil and many of those were replaced under warranty.. The one you have is still running well.. and not consuming that much oil. The Marvel mystery oil will definitely keep the rings clean and keep them from sludging up and sticking. It would have been good if it could have been used from the start. I know the price of oil has skyrocketed as well along with gas. I know a lot of people swear that by that Amisol oil. It is very expensive. You take care of your vehicles that's for sure.
Does the burning oil you see some on the floor? or it has that oil smell when it gets hot? I have a sienna 2009 225k miles and change oil twice a year before winter and after winter. Probably just 1k to 2k miles driven in a year. Don't really know if it burns oil because by the time it lose oil. New oil level is refilled.
I had a 2008 Camry but I got a notice about burning oil had test done at dealer found it was burning oil so dealer fixed the pistons and I forgot what other things in engine for free plus had dash replace also sticky dash for free as well remember all that oil it burns ends up somewhere (ahem) the cats

Honda oil dilution is a myth. Think about it, Honda has sold hundreds of millions of these worldwide over the past 8 years and almost all those cars are still on the road and running. Sure there might have been one or two owners who abused or didn’t maintain their cars properly but that still leaves 99.99999% of cars that are still running perfectly fine.
@@Alumnikiid Meh the oil dilution gate was over exaggerated. It surely did happen to just a handful of engines outta literally MILLIONS (Civics + CRVs wold worldwide). Those cars are lasting 500K miles with good care, and then some more miles. Hondas are built to last.
