    106,000 (55,000 put on by the first owner from 1989-1997. 51,000 put on by the second owner from 1997-2002). So if the trend continues I will be putting on 50,000 miles before I get a new Honda or Acura.

    170,500 on my DX. Starts up beautifully every time (except when it's been sitting over night and forget to pump the gas before I turn the key duh) Runs like a damn dream too.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    '82 Accord had somewhere around 320,000 and ran great except for totally shot valve seals, a nice blue cloud followed me everywhere I went...the only reason I don't have it anymore is because of massive rust problems. One of my friends is in the process of putting the engine into an '80 Civic.
