I knew that there was a similar thread out there, and actually read the (common problems thread) but I just wanted to see where everyone stood with their mileage. It is nice to know, however, that everyone has the same exact problems as me. I think I've only read one post where someone had to have a tranny replaced.

Thanks for the points anyhow, Spooky

same as me (pretty much), Spooky. 25 miles each way, 4 days a week Plus weekend driving. Putting $30.00 in gas in it a week sucks! Looking for a new place closer to work.

Car: 1996 3.2TL Premium
Purchased: May 2004 with 68K miles
Current: 72K miles

My car was an awesome deal: I only paid $9K for it and the only thing my and a mechanic's inspection revealed was a rusted rear exhaust section ($250 fix). I've since replaced the fuel filter, air filter (K&N) and oil (synthetic) just to get everything up to speed. Drives like a dream. Probably going to get a set of 17" with good all-seasons before winter arrives. Not sure why I'm saying this here, I just like the car so much

Like sonicblue, got an amazing deal. Paid 11k, (ok, not quite as good as sonicblues, but...) nothing noticibly wrong. Car came from Fl. Port Charlotte I believe. Purchased from an older couple who bought the thing new. This is my second Acura and could not be happier. I absolutely love this car.

I got a decent deal. My 4Runner blew a head gasket and i really didn't want to deal with it so i took a hit with negative equity and paid 13k. My car is from Canada and i absolutely love it. This is my 3rd Acura and i'm looking to buy a MDX soon for my 4th!
