Man, I feel your pain. I'm at 12,100 just before the 8-month mark (13 days to go!). I feel I've put WAY to much mileage on my car, but I can't argue with how much I've enjoyed every minute behind the wheel.

Rep Power: 0 thats not bad, i'm at pace for like 27,000 miles per year, hehe but highly unlikely. I'm at 9000 something it's almost been four months since i got the car.

Rep Power: 0 I'm at 10,300 miles and I've only had my Civic for 10 or 11 weeks now. I work in Huntsville, TX (about 80 miles north of Houston), and I'm constantly driving back and forth between Huntsville, Houston, Austin, and Dallas.

Rep Power: 0 Im at 14,000 KM's right now, I am not sure what the conversion is to miles though. But I thought it was quite a bit for me.

Rep Power: 0 I think I have all of you beat. I bought my EX on Aug. 7. It now has 12k mi. on it!!
That's only in 3.5 mos! I average 4k/mo. My last Civic was a '97 HB. I sold it last August with 140k mi. on it. It was sold 20hrs after I advertised it on only 2 Honda forums. The guy drove 100mi. to be the first one at my house to buy the car. I found out hours later, when more e-mail started coming in with higher offers than what I had asked, that g6 black HBs were kind of rare and hard to find. Oh well.. I lost out on $1,000, because that's how much higher the bids were than my asking price.

Rep Power: 0 I'm almost at 4700, and my 3 month aniversary is today. So that's an average of 1566 miles per month. It's too bad I live 20 miles away from work, that's 40 miles per day!!!

Rep Power: 391 It's a honda! its supposed to have tons of mileage! I wouldn't worry about it if I were you...
I'm driving 2hrs/day, 5 days/week minimum... 6500kms in 2 months... thats not extreme but that isnt exactly low either. I'm just not worried about it, tho - thats why I bought a honda.
