I was just looking at an add for 1993 300ZX with only 56XXX miles on it, and they only want 4K for it, and it's the original owner.

My Honda Pilot! About a thousand miles per year, but not our primary driver though, so doesn't really count.

A friend of mine bought a 1996 (I think) Audi A4 off of ebay two years ago that had about 6,000 miles on it. Some old couple from Chicago had some sort of transportation to their cabin in Wisconsin (train or small plane or something) and bought it new to keep at their cabin for errands. Then the old guy died.

I think my friend paid well under $10k for this car that was basically showroom new. That was a nice deal.

I got my '05 S with only 2,300 miles on it.

That's less than 100 miles a month.

Being poor and irresponsible she drove it into the ground and it ended up in the junk yard about 14 months later. The car was in my grandmother's will as being left to me and i'll never forgive my aunt for that one. I know it's not terriby collectible but i'd still have that car today.

I bought my '66 Mustang in 2001 with about 55K miles on it from the original owner. It was his second vehicle at the time, but I'm sure it was his daily driver at one point.

My '67 GT500 has 21,xxx on the title. I pulled it out of a field where it had been sitting a long time. It was missing 60% of the car including the gauge cluster so I don't know actual miles. Maybe it was a daily driver too. I'm not sure this counts.
