i happened to have my camera on me for the big event.. yeah,i know,kinda dorky!
im new to the whole honda/4cylinder/japanese car thing. but for the $$ i paid ($500 with 87k on the clock) i couldnt lose on this one.
whats the life expectancy on these cars?

Life expectancy depends on maintenance & the person driving. I seen them reach over 400,000 miles.

Edit- I personally just hit 200,000 miles on the odometer tonight.. but only 500 or so miles on a rebuilt motor.

I filmed it when I had 100K. I should find that tape and print a pic of it. IT was cool seeing all of those zeros.

Eh, I'm runnin' at about 270,XXX No smoke (no burning oil) Leaks a little coolant...haven't looked yet, might be water pump. Mine's auto though. :( Still runs strong with great fuel mileage. I hope to hit 300k. That might take awhile because work is only 13 miles away. haha.
