100,000 miles in a Honda! Poor woman... I can't imagine much worse. Isn't it about time you bought her a real car! | ||

308,000 on my company 1991 Chevy cargo van. Just a vehicle we use as a backup, but why sell it, we'd get nothing for it. Runs and looks great. Ironic, the mileage being 308! | ||

Reliability is not the sole domain of Japanese cars. The 1971 TVR 2500 (British) I sold before I bought the Ferrari had well over 250,000 miles (all by me) and was still a class winner at car shows. Good question, though. I wonder what the highest mileage street-driven Ferrari has clocked??? Hmmm... | ||

I can picture a 400k mile toyota or honda...My dad I know commutes about 100 miles daily 5 or 6 days a week. He drives a taurus though. What is it that makes these cars so reliable and why can't they incorperate some of those things in other cars like Ferraris? | ||

The T-belt change on my old 95 Civic EX was recommended at 90,000 and set me back 500 big ones including water pump | ||

Congrats, but don't forget to change the T-belt!! I've seen some very expensive repair bills due to T belt breaking. | ||

Car is a 98 model. She drove 50 miles a day for 5 years to work. It has some outer wear and dings, but inside is fine and runs like a champ. She was hinting about a new car so I gave her my jeep and the honda is now mine....anything I can to get that ferrari. | ||

Unbelievable... Hondas & Toyotas are some of the most reliable cars ever made... Jim, how old is the car and what is the average monthly miles...? A friend of mine knows someone who's approaching 400,000 miles on his Toyota... | ||

well it isn't a ferrari, but rather my wife's honda accord. All we have done is change oil, tires, brakes and windshield wipers.  |
