I have 212,000 92 dx getting 41mpg. Only problem I had once was the Ignitor inside the distributor cap went bad. Other then that, oil, filters, belts, fluids, etc all have been changed per the shop manual. A lot of guys here like to upgrade their cars for racing, but if you are looking for an A-B car, I have no doubts in my mind that anyone of those listed are good to go. Problem with the 200k car is that everything rubber starts to fall apart, including CVJ boots, hoses, etc. Something to consider in the purchase. Another thing, if you know how to do minor repair, oil, belts, etc, then you should have no reason to buy a car with high miles. Engines with about 35k miles go for (plus or minus a couple hundred) $800, depending on mileage and add on's. I just bought a Honda CBR, 22k miles, most would say that is high mileage for a bike, but it looks great and the engine is in top notch condition. Keep doing your homework and you'll be happy .
