Contrary to popular beliefs, a high mileage car is the best buy.
Since the car is driven mostly on the highway. Highway driving is not
considered extreme conditions based on the service manual. And in
fact, high rpm driving is good for the engine. A car that sits on stop
light or engages in city traffic is more susceptible to crude, deposit
buildup, transmission brake wear.

My 280k miles Honda could have the hood weld shut after every
oil change. The motor can go another 100k without major repairs.
