[russiankid]

[mushroom_toy]

[evil88accordLX]

good idea, but nope. i would have to drive at a constant 108MPH for all 168 hours of the week. but i sure like your enthusiasm. surely there are plenty of others on this site that have 300,000+ though.

Just emailing to let you know about my 86 Honda Accord. Im the second owner, but since new it has seen over 413,000 miles on the original engine and body. Since Ive had it its been through quite a few changes, and throughout its history all regular maintenance has been done. Since Ive had it I've been to all states surrounding Ga and it has not missed a lick. Still runs and drives like a dream. It is probably one of the best vehicles I own and definitely one of the most fun. I use it as my daily driver, and my mountain running car. With a little work, everyone would be surprised what this car can do in the twisties, and most of the time they are very surprised when they find out how many miles she has on her. If yall need any more info please feel free to email me. Im enclosing some pics of the car for your viewing. Also here is a pretty detailed build thread since Ive had the car:

If you have owned a car since it was new and have accumulated 300,000 miles or more

I don't think any of us are old enough to have owned the car since it was new

now i see this but mk3gee lost orig motor tittle but the replacement still had over 300k on it when we got it lol

... why didn't someone spam me on msn or something

[RobT5580]

I was probably pretty close to that with my 2nd red coupe but i was not aware of the odometer fraud until after i junked it. But i was happy to hear about it in a sense because i had issues with that car. My first 89 Coupe i sold at 200k but i am sure their are a few around to put on the list.

[import racer]

Well my sei has 430 000 km on it and still runs fine,but the guy i got it from said he replace the dist 3 or 4 times.

[Ryanc2106]

my 89 accord is about 350,000 give or take but im like the 3rd 4th owner.

[LxAcc510]

[snoopyloopy]

alas, i'm the third owner. but i'm pretty sure mine's original. i'm 21,xxx short though. call me back within a year.

[DBMaster]

[Civic Accord Honda]
