When I bought my Benz, the sales guy showed me a old Benz with 519,000 miles. I was duly impressed.

Ok...
My personal best was a 1963 Peugeot 404 sedan that lived a total of 27 years and covered a tick under 400,000 miles over that time. I drove 100,000 of those, and having bought it from the original owner, the total mileage was verifiable. It was hard time, mostly city driving, no 30,000 miles per year highway princess, was that old car...
The problem that killed it was body rust (damned Canadian winters) - I could have got another 100,000+ EASILY if it hadn't rotted away....RIP

C230 Sport Coupe Orion Blue
Bought Sep 01 (If I didn't buy it then the terrorist would win!)
3600 Miles
Replaced 6 Speed Tranny at 50 miles, took 3 days.
Sunroof JUST started to make a loud squeek when I drive.
Other than that It's been GREAT.

maybe we can get a sedan thread going...
Since this one is for the coupe it seems. Greatest mileage I had on a car was a '83 Volvo 760 that had 263,000 which I put on it. That car cost me a bundle of money to upkeep.
