our accords last almost forever but lets be honest here people prefer a car with under 150k miles these days i dont care how reliable it is.... my 99 has 115k and that was the biggest reason i bought it because its relatively low mileage and i know when im done with it in about 2 years its still gonna have under 150k and i will still be able to sell it relatively easy and for around the same price i bought it for. :hihi:

Yeah, our 6GA's last a long time. Probably after 4 years in college, I might only be at 140k-150k or so. Then I might go to more school for another 2-3 years and then into the working field. I'm pretty sure I'll still have my 6GA by then LOL. Just gotta take care of the paint and make sure it doesn't rust.

Find out from the previous owner. If you can't find out, try to pop the cap and if you can't have the shop pop the cap. Check the condition and see if there's any cracks in it. Last thing you want is your motor being totaled due to a worn out timing belt.
