Oh I'm sure it'll last another 100k miles if no major or continued minor 
problems have plaqued the car. In other words if it has run right for 100k 
miles then it will last at least another 100k miles. Late models cars are 
build alot better than some older cars it that they can last with a little 
tlc. This excludes items that are rubber-based or direct contact to road 
splash but the motor should last that long. Alot depends on what and where 
you drive and maintenance scheules, etc. but if it as mentioned above, no 
have relatively few problems, it will run. Your model car may need it's 
timing cog belt replaced if "so equiped" since 60-75k is the required time to 
be replaced whether it works or not. okay? Check the auto echo for a more 
detailed answer from others. -_-_-Bill
