This might not be the right place for this, but I didn't think it would hurt.

I damaged my hatch lately, so i've been cruising craigslist and all sorts of import sites, and came across this.

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/car/410257705.html

over 900k on the original motor...
damn

thought i'd share
honda's

 

NOFX brought that to my attention a couple of weeks ago. It's interesting, and definitely a testament to the longevity of Honda motors, but I think his asking price is a little optimistic. Having a super high mileage car is one thing, but trying to use the high mileage as a sort of selling point just isn't going to work. Unless some Honda dealer wants to ****** it up to use a showroom display.

 

I could see a dealer doing that just to show how long they can last.

 

sad thing is, i've paid more for cars that had 800,000 miles less and the body was in much need of TLC....i'd buy that thing, drive it til it blew up (atleast 1 million miles) and then swap it. I'd even swap the gauge cluster so i'd still have the 1 million mile cluster. just a neat thing to have i'd think.

 

He spent 652 days @ 60 mph in that thing.


...sorry

 

 

Damm, my 97 coupe is still an infant at 170k. But i already had trans replaced due to bad ISB

 

that reminds me of the episode of married with children when al almost gets a free car from dodge cause his had a million miles.

 

Old news.

Cool none-the-less.

 

thats alot of miles. damn.

 

a dealership should def pick that thing up...i emailed a friend at the local honda and told him about it, they said there gonna check it out...they would have to ship it to CA

 

just a few more miles and itl be brand new again lol

 

Maybe a Honda museum will pay top dollar for it.

 

http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCar...tions= Hes not really asking that much. The private party value is about the same on KBB on that car, tho its hard to believe.

 

changing the oil every 2500 miles and at an average oil change price of $25 each, the guy has spent over $9,000 just in oil changes.
Over $54,000 in gas (30mpg and $1.75/gallon gas)

 

1.75 for gas were is he getting gas i would have it shipped down to new york, **** 2.85 over here for regular

 

OMFG I WOULD BUY THAT CAR IN A HEART BEAT... if i was in atlanta, god dam, thats sick

Theres a honda dealer here that has a 96+ lx 4dr with over 300k.I asked him about that and that's exactly what he said,they show it to people as an example of how long hondas last, but he doesn't expect to sell it.

 

wow..i would buy it..

 

ive already seen this from a diff site lol but yea thats amazing! i wouldnt buy a car that had 900k+ miles on it personally but it does show how long hondas can last

 

it's nice to see everyone not complaining about a post like this.

 

That's awesome!

 

This is incredible. Ive seen it before and look almost identical to my car.

Pretty sure that all 900k miles weren't put on in the last 2 years or so. $1.75 is a rough average of what fuel cost back in the 90's and what it is today.

 

that's absolutely sick! Rock on Honda Love!
