It could be more than 100k, but I’d expect more than just the struts would need replacement by a million miles. Not sure the odometer went that high in these cars anyway, so unless the first owner gave details about the provenance when this second owner purchased it, I think it’s hard to verify. If we could have seen pictures, that’d be easier to see if it passes the smell test of a million mile car.

Big deal. Even if you "found" some Geo that supposedly went 250K-500K miles - any car can accumulate that mileage as long as you A: manage not to total it and B: just keep repairing/replacing parts that break or wear out -- including engines and transmissions. And Geo didn't build any of those cars either -- they were all Isuzus/Suzukis/Toyotas with a Geo badge.
Now explain how someone could have driven it a million miles in just an 11 year period. That's an average of 250 miles a day... 365 days a year.
