That's why there are so many, they take so long before they get scrapped that they build up on the roads. Honda's also FEEL better than other cars. My civic feels like it was ment to be raced around. Other cars, well, Don't.

Ok, I think you need to rephrase the mileage question. I have a friend with a G20, that just broke 200k. The only major things he has had to replace were the clutch, and some oil seal. He still races it around. I Just sold a Nissan pulsar, that 246k on the clock. Granted it was getting tired, and could use a rebuild. It still ran great, never leaked oil, or burnt oil for that matter. I think both Honda, and Nissan motors are probably one of the best motors out there for reliability, if treated right.
