Over 600k miles and they're praising the car ? Wow, talk about low expectations
Nevertheless, not bad.
That's nothing when I still see '79/80 corollas driving around. Last weekend, I saw 79? celica, and a lady was driving that car.
Besides from a noisy muffler, her car was smooth at idle and didn't see the antenna or rear-view shake at all
Nevertheless, not bad.

It would be nice to have most cars last that long, shows how well any car SHOULD be built.
Actually, I was comparing to toyota in my mind when I was typing that
I guess I had "higher" expectations and hitting half a million is nothing unheard of also.

Highway vs city miles makes a big difference as well. Most of the cars hitting high mileage (or kilometerage...) are making long distance / highway type trips...

Hmm, try it for yourself.

If it were 62,500 miles, would Hyundai or anyone make a big deal out of it? I think if anything, a celebration of such low mileage would serve to underscore Hyundai's crappiness, not its reliability.

How about 1.2 million miles or 1.9 million kilometers.
