I have a 1991 Camry with no less than 478,000 miles. The body is very rough (teenage drivers) but it still goes down the road just fine.

Still driving a 1977 Toyota pick up truck on occasion. Runs just fine - extremely well actually. 'spose it should, have replaced just about everything, but parts were reasonable
IIRC I found a remanufactured head and camshaft for around $140 and installed them by using photocopies from a reference book at the library. An invisible water hose under the air filter housing ruptured and I thought that might be the end of it, but it keeps on going - passes California smog testing, too.

That's almost 100 miles everyday for 15 years. Are you sure?

I bought the car with 358,000 miles on it, from a retiring lady. She drove a delivery route for a next day photo service 6 days a week. She area was most of western Iowa, I am not sure of the actual miles per day but, I can easily say it was more than 200 miles a day.

I've got the oldest! At least the oldest US version. A 1983.
But only have 240,000 miles on it.

'92 Camry, 200,000miles (320,000km). Drives like new, I drove 450km on the highway yesterday... Only had to replace ignition coil around 290,000km (luckily it failed near our house). Most remarkable fact: front brake pads only replaced after 300,000km. Incredible. Doesn't consume a drop of oil between maintenance (every 10,000km). Most expensive repair was replacement of all seals on the automatic gearbox...
