Default 60,000...

Well, I am at work now, with 59,985 miles on the odometer... I bought the car in March with 48,900 on it. I don't know why, perhaps it's my history with American cars, but 60K always seems like the delimiter between "low" miles and "high" miles cars. I feel like my car is turning 40 or something. I know, I know, it's a Honda, but I have to think that now that she's hit 60K, I need to give the car some tender loving care.

Anyway, I will shed a bit of a tear on the way home tonight...

give you guys some perspective about Honda's. I had an 88 accord that finally died at 240,000.00 miles but could have been revived with a tranny overhaul. Wife's current DD is an 03 Honda Pilot with 135,000 miles and running as good as ever. Keep up with the maintenance and you'll be fine. Remember, 60k is like the new 30k!

116K on my S. Still haven't had a single issue with it since I have owned it at 67K miles almost 2 years ago.
People are over 200K miles in their S2000's already. 60K is like new...

I've had my car for exactly a year (well, 3 days shy) and put 31,257 miles on it as of today.
