99 Accord EX MT. 149K. Bought at 99K. Other than maintenance haven't done a thing except new front rotors and pads since the OEM are weak as hell on the 6th gen. Blessed be the name of Brembo.

I have an 88 Accord LXI with 280K and still runs strong just did the water pump and timing belt. My 01 Accord EX only has 73K.

Wow, I find this thread to be very comforting. My '99 LX has 142,000 in the clock and sits outside in the harsh NY winters (while the "baby" gets stored in the garage). I worry that that I'll need to replace it soon. Dilgently did all maintainence on time as recommended (incl. new timing belt) but CC conked out years ago (wire snapped), the engine leaks oil at the gasket and oil pan (have to add a quart every fillup or so) and the engine itself sounds just like a diesel (sticky valve maybe?).

Half Million Miles
I bought this car brand new in 1991. I had 134 miles on the odometer because it had to be driven in from another city. I rolled over 500,000 last year. I'm now at 528K. The majority of repairs have been the usual 'worn-out' items (alternators, thermostats, brakes, CV joints..) Some things just wear out after 18 years... go figure. I did have to replace the ac/heater blower motor last weekend.
everything else is fully functional.
I love this car
