I have an Astro van with 499975 KMs / 310484 miles.

My friend sold an '89 CX just like mine, but his had 695k KMs / 431k miles, he actually got money for it, and it lasted the new owner another year.

The highest mileage car I have ever ridden in was a Cadillac one of my low-rider friends bought. It was a '95 Fleetwood, it had 730k KMs / 453k miles. That thing was SCARY wasted! Like I wanted him to pull over and let me walk home bad. He bought it with a dead battery so the ODO wouldn't light up until he got it home. He ended up getting like $2800 for it as it was black with a black interior which is ultra rare in those cars, but the guy that bought it had to change the frame etc. Seems like a lot of work on the wrong car to me haha.
