Well with 203,000 miles on my Accord I decided to do a compression check before I change the timing belt/water pump tomorrow. With a Nominal of 178psi it tested out at 190-195-192-195! It also got 35.7mpg on its last tank of 526 miles! What a great little car, it keeps going and going and going... Now I hope the CL can keep this great Honda reputation going...

Congrats.

I wish I could own a car that long.

My old 92 Accord was at 260K before I sold it..

Sweet. Honda does build them to last. Look at the all the Legends around and the amount of miles they have on them.

Damn... are you doing the timing-belt?

Hope my 1st gen does too. Its got 144,000 right now and Im hoping to atleast double that

Yeah, I changed the timing belt and water pump today. I also threw on a UR Crank Pulley but it runs so rough now, I hate it! What is up with these things!?

My '83 528e had 258,000 on it when I traded it for my '98 3.2 TL-P. Both solid cars that I miss occasionally.

yeah I got a 94 Accord with 230 k on it. I drive hard but the BEST i do on gas is 30 mpg(in the summer my car does great on gas).(but i do a little in town driving)(plus i'm an agressive driver so i probably rev it a little harder than you do.) but overall she it runs fine.

Chances are the CL will not last that long. At least not without some major work to keep it running. Your Accord was made overseas back then. Now all the cars are made in the USA by lazy americans. (except a few parts) I'm sure by 150K miles the CL will fall apart. Just like most american cars. My mom had an 85 accord that had about 170K miles on it when she sold it in 2002. That's an 18 year old car. The only things that it needed was the timing belt, & brakes.

Congrats! I just clicked over 160,000 on my 94 Legend Coupe this morning on the way to work. I'm 20K away from the 2nd timing belt service since I have owned the car. That's what I call lasting! Looking forward to hitting the 200,000 mile mark before I get a new car....hopefully it should hold out.
