318,000 on a 1994 Camry, bought off the neighbors for $150 after it sat for 8 months. (Neighbors kid got a DUI in it)
I did a ton of work on it for fun, and sold it with 321,257 to some friends who are still driving it.
Allegedly the engine had been replaced at one point, and I was able to run a carfax and verify the mileage on the chassis.

Quite a few years back I bought a '92 GMC K2500 5.7 with 240,000 mi. on the clock. Motor was incredibly strong for being all original. The transmission had a 1-2 shift that would throw you into the back of your seat, but I drove it that way for another 25,000 miles before selling it to a high school kid. Still ran great and shifted hard when I sold it.
313,000 on a Volvo 850 purchased for $700. Needed a rear main seal, then driven for a few years.
99 Grand Prix GT with 146K on it. I bought it as a total for $700 and drove it for a few years as a work car.

I bought a saturn with 172k for $500.
91 Landcruiser 165k at purchase. One of the few vehicles that are immune to mileage. 250-300k? Good condition it's sold right away.
The Escape with 30k-ish.. now has 156k. Second would be Focus which I started driving at 85k and now has 140k. Reason I'm older, hate car payments and both are in decent shape.
Just bought a 1991 Chevrolet K1500 4WD Extended Cab with Long Bed. 350 V8 with 3.73 Locking Rear. Has 122k Miles.

136,xxx miles on a 1988 Daytona Shelby Z with the 2.2L Turbo 2 -- 5spd.

My 1993 rez rocket, GMC 1500 came last all with 370,000km and I currently have 372,000km on it. I have had to add a little less than a liter of oil thus far. Mind you it was never full to begin with. I think I might never change the oil in this thing either.
