and heres whats funny, 107k miles on an acura/honda is literally nothing. 107k on any American car... plah! I'd love to see the depreciation percentage compared to the the Honda. HA 107K on an a Honda means, ok maybe halfway through its life... more like 1/3 if taken care of well. 107k on a lot of american cars means DONE. Now diesel trucks, maybe gas trucks, thats a diff story.
dont be to ignorent now.... I had a neon that had well over 220k and it was running as good as the guy it was brand new... even w/ a 60shot on it....
I also had a Taures with 275k on it and it run awesome! until I wrecked it
and a Mustang that had 250k on it until I didnt do any oil changes on it, no fuild checks or anything and it locked up(it was 600 bucks, i wanted to see how long it would run
)

and i guess all those ford and chevy taxi's with over 100k are "pushing the limits"? And my contour has 197k on it....sure its not as good as new but with a new alternator and clutch and it will run great.

i like how you guys say it still runs like new. I highly doubt that , mine sure as hell doesnt. its a little stiffing switching gears and I think it probably handled a little better back in its day.. shit just wears out, the motor runs fine though
