Was at 197k with my first car, a 94 Nissan Altima.
Only major issue was replacing the clutch, but other than that it was a great car.

'08 Honda Accord
138,000 miles
Power locks don't work
Radio/AC lights have gone out
Issues with a brake caliper
No power train issues but annoying crap I thought I was avoiding by buying a Honda. Power locks were an issue well before 100k.
Going to buy a Toyota or Lexus next. Wife has had zero issues with her highlander.

Correct, you should expect 100k with no problems out of most vehicles.

'06 Tacoma with 155K & no troubles; other than routine maintenance including getting a new battery every 2 years (FL is brutal on batteries) the only thing I've HAD to do is replace the front U-joint & put in a new stereo (the volume only worked when it wanted to). I did upgrade my exhaust system & shocks/struts: Thorley headers, dual exhaust, NO catalytic converters (THANK YOU FLORIDA!!!!) & Bilstein shocks/struts. Goal is 300K miles.

they don't. They're exponentially better. They have much more power, get better fuel mileage, last longer, are easier to work on, and will save your life in a crash. I'm gonna chalk that one
Somewhat true but I disagree on the easier to work on, last longer and more power comments.
Less stuff under the hood relates to more stuff to break/go out. My old 79 cj with the 4.0 I6 was a torque beast. This 2013 I have sucks when it comes to power/get up/pick up.
Any person with minimal skill could change any part on any vehicle "back in the day".

2009 Infiniti G 37. 105k+. Almost entirely highway miles commuting in Houston. No issues. Brakes, tires and spark plugs - only normal maintenance.

Just put new tires on my 2008 4Runner with 110k.
I agree with the above posts, 100k isn't an accomplishment IMO...at least I hope not. I plan on getting far more.

2005 Mazda 3, it has 110K on it now with no major problems.
Did have an engine mount break, but it was fixed under warranty.
I had to have the motor on the driver window fixed, and the AC switch as well, but all minor repairs. Nothing that affected the ability to drive it.
