I WIN!
Almost 215,000....
On our `89 Lx Sedan...
dangit, I guess I dont win...
Whoever said only 250,000 miles is crazy, our `89 is a champ, I bet she'll make it to 500,000 with the right owner...
We've got 21,000 on our 1 year old `04 EX-SE, 14,000 on our 6 month old Titan, and a whoping 1,800 on our year an a half old Ninja...

43,000 on my 2002 LX sedan, bought it with 35,000 miles and its only been a year since i had the vic.
Wow on that site it says the KBB value is $10,105... damn I knew Hondas have excellent retail but not that good considering it has 209,000 miles on it

I'm not sure which KBB this guy is using but KBB online shows $9000 for a dealer ASKING price & a private party PURCHASE price of $6465. Now in the KBB tool I called it "Good" condition & I did not check the "sliding sun roof" checkbox. The eBay listing says it has a sun roof but the pictures don't show one & you don't see a lot of LX's running around with sliding sun roofs. His Buy It Now price of $5999 isn't too bad but telling folks it books for >$10k is kinda iffy. Somebody smarter than me (or someone with an '01 LX) tell me if the air intake just below the front bumper (& where the factory fogs go) should be painted or not. I thought '01 and '02s had black plastic in that area. Not that a new paint job has to be a bad thing but you never know. [/rant]
Edited to add .... '02 w/ 29k.

Rep Power: 285 my 01 has 87k on it. the last year or so we have chilled out on driving all over TX so now I think it will take a lot longer to put more miles on it which is good seeing the gas prices are jumping up even higher. I know we drive cars that sip gas but still OUCH!
