I just traded in my 2010 Camaro 1SS/RS with over 93,000 miles on it. Never had an issue with it, and it was still running like the first day I bought it.

I'm planning on keeping my car for a very long time! Hopefully, nothing major happened and if the engine blows somehow I'm planning on just swapping an ls7 in it. lol

How much did you get for her?

Here's that video of the guy with over half a million miles on his Vette... wow.

Still looks great too. Talk about getting your money out of something.

At that point, I got ALL THE FUN that I wanted from the car which had 5 mi on the odometer when I bought it. They should have charged me to get rid of it, nope, a shop bought it from me. I hope they made more from selling the parts. I expect my Camaro SS to give me the same longevity.

Wait wait wait... An Audi S4 with that many miles? Impossible

Wow is right! I am impressed, looks good and still sounds good! And everyone always says only foreign cars can go that long.

The problem you will run into with an american car isn't so much maintenance it's lack of activity. Sure you need to do the maintenance but a 4 yr. old car with 8k miles on it probably won't last as long as a 4 yr. old car with over 100k mileage wise atleast not trouble free. Things will get to dry, seize etc. if it's not put through it's paces on a regular basis. I'm not saying the summer sweeties who get garaged every winter but 8k on a 4yr. old camaro that's seen upwards of 5 summers is a candidate for those issues but i love camaro's so i'm hoping that doesn't happen to any of them.

Dealer trade in ya about $7-8k. Private sale if it's had zero issues and get's a clean bill of health from a GM Dealership before sale will get much more to the right buyer.

Almost any modern car will go over 200,000 miles if it's kept away from road salt.
