99 LX 4-cyl 4-dr: 207K
Bought my baby brand-new in Dec. '98. She now has 207,300 miles and still humming along. Had the timing belt and water pump replaced every 90K (2x already) and the rest are just the normal wear-and-tear -- brakes, fluids, O2 sensors, light bulbs and tires. Engine feels like it only has 20,000 miles, for she can very much keep up with the turnpike wolf packs doing 80mph.
I hate Honda for making products built like a tank. Until now I can't justify I need a new ride!

94 Accord LX sedan
Purchased new, daily driver, non-VTEC, 5-speed, original clutch, taught two kids to drive, 294K miles plus another 13K estimated when the odometer was stuck on the service indicator. So about 307K miles.

97 Accord EX a/t 269k
Replaced one axle, alternator, 1 front wheel bearing and rotor, 1 rear wheel bearing.
I need to get around to doing a timing belt and a ROH conversion...

283,000 miles on my 2000 ex 4cyl auto
Water pump and timing belt @ 110k and at 220k
Front wheel bearings @ 240k
Rear wheel bearings @ 280k
front sway bar bushings and links at 280k
oil changes every 3k with Pennz 10w-30 since new.
These were all preventative except a rear wheel bearing started to make some noise....so I replaced them both.
...also had many sets of new tires and alignments with each set...(1 inner tie rod replaced during an alignment)
At 283k it blew a head gasket when the thermostat gasket failed and jammed up in the thermostat causing it to overheat.
Should I quit driving it on my coast to coast trips now?
