A couple in Minnesota just traded in their 414,000-mile 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage, which is notable for any car, topping many of the Junkyard Gems we've featured. We were also impressed because that's a lot of miles in a car that we weren't especially fond of. But the couple that owned it, Jerry and Janice Huot, clearly liked it. Dubbed the "Purple Won" in a nod to Prince, the subcompact endured six upper Midwest winters as an all-purpose utility and delivery vehicle.

"I always loved the comments at gas stations and grocery stores and waves from people as I'd drive by," Jerry said. "Kids would always stop and point. Everybody seemed to love that car; it would make everyone smile whenever they saw it."

A 2007 Nissan Frontier with over 1 million miles (1.609 million km) under its belt has been officially retired.

Our ‘Used Cars' category is, more often than not, filled with expensive models, most of which we would buy if we could afford the asking price and/or running costs.

The Honda S2000 roadster has begun to catch fire with collectors, and this example currently up for auction on Bring a Trailer will only fan the flames. It has just over 1,000 miles on the odometer, making it effectively a new car.

This 2007-model S2000 is an AP2-generation car from the penultimate year of production. This one is Silverstone Metallic with a black leather interior and a black power top. The 2.2-liter F22C1 VTEC inline-four has an 8,000-rpm redline and makes 237 horsepower. It's backed by a six-speed stick shift and a Torsen limited-slip differential. The seller acquired the car from the original owner in Texas last year. Although this S2000 doesn't appear to have any immediate needs, the new owner may be happy to know that Honda has begun remanufacturing parts for the S2000.
