    No your car blows up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! J/k it rolls over to 0 miles again. But, before that happens you have to take a ton of pictures and contact Honda and see if they will give you free stuff if they advertise your car.

    I dunno but I remember the Married With Children episode where his Dodge was about to roll over and they were gonna give him a ton of free stuff. I think Honda would maybe use it somehow. Very rare so I would think they would.

    Hahaha, I remember that one. You would probably have to prove it was original and stuff. I dunno if they would give you anything though. Maybe.

    They wouldn't do anything... it's real hard to prove you actually have that many miles on it unless you have the service records.

    I would bet it has been done in a honda. Before I found this message board I searched for high mileage associations and you wouldnt believe the miles some people put on old hondas.

    Yeah, I need to know how many rebuilds if any. I have a hard time seeing it go without any, but you never know...

    I bet that if you drove a 3g like an old man since it was born, and always did the 15k mile Honda serives like you're supposed to it could last that long.
