I have 285,000mi on my CRX right now. 225,000mi of those were problem free on the stock Si motor when I did my first B16 swap.
After that, I did a full restoration in 2002 at 250,000mi so I figure that would be considered "cheating"
Go Honda!

In the Honda Musuem(Sp?) they have an Accord I think that has 1.4 Million on the original motor/head, tranny replaced at I think around 200K.. There was a news article about it about 2 years ago.. Honda gave him a new 1 and I guess he had problmes with the thing within the first 20K.. haha

I had a 1982 Accord for 5 years. It broke once when the thermostat crapped out. I maybe spent $100 on maintenance and upkeep. Not a Civic, but in '82 they were pretty similar.
And as 2JZ implied, I have no idea how many miles were on it, but I drove it everywhere, and then my brothers drove it until they enlisted.
