what is "high mileage" on a modern car?

just curious.

130,000mi on the E61 now. it's pretty expensive to maintain (replace failed sensors and ageing parts) but there isn't really anything else on the market like it.

vacillate between keeping the E61 until 150,000mi or selling it.

the fact is: I don't know what will be looming in terms of major issues for the engine. the transmission and all wheel drive system fluids get changed every 50,000 miles so if they fail, that's just fate.
