Thanks for doing this.
I've recently purchased cars that have unusually high mileage but are newer 1-2 year old cars. Think 30,000-45,000+ mileage a year.
My take is as long as the car has been well maintained, good engines are made to run and the rubber, body, interior etc are still a newer car.
My last car was two years old with 90k. Got a great deal and drove it another four years until it reached 200k. It needed a radiator but that was basically it.
Any problems with this approach?

In my opinion I would rather have a older car with less mileas some of them are bullet proof if you reserch for a good one but at the same time to me 90k is low miles. Keep in mind im not a moderator.
100,000 Highway mileage is like 10,000 urban mileage per Scotty.
On older cars, rubber & plastic parts under the hood & body decompose & degrade regardless of mileage.
Any quality car built this century should make it to 200,000 with few issues.
