Yup.... needs about $4k of work... not worth a car thats worth $1500 in working condition. So I bought a 97 honda accord special addition with 104ooo miles, plush leather seats, auto windows, locks, and moonroof, alloy wheels... I saw it before its even been detailed and it looks immaculate. $7900

Gonna miss my saturn tho

I have yet to see any Honda hit 300k without either a rebuild or major engine overhaul. The closest I've seen was an old Acura Legend with about 280,000 miles on it, and it had more hydrocarbons in the radiator than the exhaust :P

timing chain needs replaced. gonna need a ring and valve job before too long, tranny is still good but starting to wear. the timing chain guide may need replaced as well....

oh yeah, and if the honda is taken care of, they can easily go 300.000. My brother (who is a master technician and owns his own shop) has seen plenty go that far and farther. if they are taken care of they will last

Considering Honda has such a high reliabilty rating, and is so popular among teen age girls and women in general, I'd say having just a "high" religabilty rating considering its owners means hondas are bullet proof.
