anyone have 100k+ on their TSX

I have a 2010 TSX i4 w/ tech pack and between my wife and I we've racked up almost 120k using it to commute between us. Never should have purchased a TSX, but I had no idea we'd be using it as a commuter as both our jobs changed after we got it!

I got a new company car, she is closer to work so it should keep the miles down!

Mainly my GPS problem; they want like $2-3k to fix it. what I'm saying is this car is less than two years old...the GPS shouldn't be broken no matter how much mileage i have.

when they tried to sell me the extended warranty they used the "if the nav. breaks" how much it would cost. Did not get it. Did you send it to Alpine which costs $185.00 (not 100% sure of the price) for them to fix it.

^ holy balls 75,000 mile lease limit? Is that over three years? did you pay a premium for that?

Why would you not buy the car if you plan on putting that many miles on it?

I'm (and probably a lot of other people) really curious to see a run-down of things you had to do with the car. Like oil changes, tires, breaks, other maintenance items, issues...

Its a 5 year lease. 5 years is about as long as I keep my daily drivers no matter what they are. I knew that I wasnt going to mod this car so to keep my payment really low I leased it. Not through Acura and no I did not pay a premium. I didnt even have to pay a security deposit, only a 0.10 penalty for over mileage and I have gauranteed instant equity in the car when I trade it in. Its good to have family in the car business!

I have quite a lot of miles on my TSX, and really...Oil change routinely will make this car live forever.

Tire wear has been a big problem for me though, I don't know if my struts need to be replaced I've had this car aligned 3 times in 2 months, but the right tire balds more than the left. Weird...
