    Thumbs up Mileage???

    Hey all. Im new to this site. I drive an 88 LXi as my daily driver. I can honestly say that the 3rg gen Accord is the perfect daily driver!!! Well anyways, everybody knows how long these 3rd gens can last. Everybody please take the time to list your year,model, and mileage. Im just very curious. Me, 181k about to hit 182k. Now you...........:super:

    oh and by the way dailydriver... many of us have our cars because we enjoy the performance aspect as well... There are a few turbo accords as well as accords with 200hp+.. which is pretty decient for a car as light as they are.... Many Show cars and so on... look at the Accord Pics section and check out the potential that comes with owning a 3rd gen. accord.....
    oh ya and Im at 140,000...:super:

    89 Sedan LX, Just reached 144,000.
    I usually get 28-30 highway and 25-26 city.
    That's as good as the new Accords.

    I understand and I love what you guys are doing with these cars. My baby is my 94 Integra GSR. Like I said 90% of my financial income goes to that bad boy. Im planning on getting a pic of both of the cars together in a pic. I think that a 3rd gen Accord is a great platform to modify. To the guy with 336,000 miles, I would be the happiest guy on earth. I love Hondas.:smokin:

    336k aint sheeeit. My Honda mechanic has an article about a guy with over 1.4 million miles on his 94 Accord. There was an article someone posted about an 86 that had like 1 million. These things last for-fucking-ever.
    Good bye to the 1989 DX Type R. Hello 2001 LX.

    Yes, it does. I also use it as a daily commuter. I drive 60 miles a day round trip. I would like to get a second car, perhaps a Civic for that purpose. That way I can save the miles on my Accord.

    Yea I heard about that '94 Accord too (was that the one with 2 odometers or something?). The '86 Accord only had 500,000 on it though, but that's still pretty damn impressive if you ask me! Lets see a Chrysler do that (oh wait, it never could!)

    Here's the article about the '86 Accord
