How long the car last depends more upon how the car is taken care of then which model you chose. There are cars with over 200K on them whose owners are posting on NAM. There are always preventive maintenance items on any car that should be replaced before they wear out in order to maintain the general good health of the car. Information on this site as well as keeping your car serviced by a reputable dealer or mechanic will go a long way towards helping you maintain your car so it lasts for a long, long time. If you continue to surf this web site you will find threads that discuss maintenance items and maintenance timelines for your car.
