I'm looking at a Lancer tomorrow w/ ~160,000 on it. If I grab it, it's promptly getting it's oil changed, transmission flushed, timing belt and water pump changed, and wires / plugs. It's bone stock and still runs sound as it is (so I'm being told).

i only have 68k on mine but i bet they could last up to 300,000 but thats a really long time not to get bored and swap or cut the engine life short with a turbo

comforting most are lasting to around 150K. Mine has been mostly problem free so far at 62K miles. Only irritating thing thus far was having to replace the driver side axle. I don't beat on it but maybe those who had the car before me did.....

140k+ changed plugs, tires twice, brakes, e brak cable (snow drifting ) serpentines, oil, thats about it. Need to have my rotors turned but they work fine just a bit of wobble, and only one bad ding on the paint from a semi throwing stuff at me.
