i have seen over 440k on a couple of cars that we service .....but ultimately it is how the owner takes care of his car ...

Taken care of, I'd expect 300,000 miles realistically. More if luck holds, and you don't live near salt water (corrosion, you know)
I've a '97 SE with 197,000 and to date:
Radiator (corroded on the outside)
A/C Compressor.
The occasional bulb
And the obligatory oil changes
Period.

P

I just noticed, Norton isn't near salt water.
But the music from Greatwoods (sic) Tweeter Center can have detrimental effects on Japanese Electronics

I know it's not the same generation, but my friend who used to work at the Culver City Honda (Miller Honda) had a '90-93 Accord with ORIGINAL engine and OE transmission come in with over 540,000 miles. But like deserthonda said, it's all in how the car's taken care of........I've seen '03s and '04s banged up and stuff...there was this one guy with an...'02 Infiniti I30 with leakage everywhere underneath....and he wasn't going to do anything. I felt like telling the manager that I wasn't going to do the oil change...
