I wish I could find the original owner and kick his ass.

Can we put a mileage and year on this ban.

Can't you get his name from Carfax? You're good at finding people . . . I'm sure it won't be long.

I seriously tried.

Original owner here

21miles on date of purchase.
11/2006
78k miles.

Original owner
40+ miles on date of purchase
Oct. 2004, can't remember the exact day
83k miles

August 04 - present

i hope this was an "stayed in the family" car. if you're 19, that means you owned it when you were 12.

Parents bought a 4G, gave the kid their 3G.

so does that really count as the original owner? i guess if the title belongs to the parents its 1st owner...but if kid now "owns" the vehicle...technically speaking...he's 2nd owner.

My apologies. Sould have seen the "Queen" above your avatar.

I must give you a for having that many miles on originals pads and rotors

J, he's a lost cause...
pick better fights!

2007 purchased Dec 2006
39 miles on the clock
now 45k mi

and it just got tagged this afternoon in the home depot parking lot... ppl need to learn how to pull into a parking spot. it isn't that hard!!!

Next month is my 5 year anniversary. '06 purchased Sept '06. 56k miles and going strong. Not having a car payment anymore FTW.

Sorry to hear Kam.. I've been dinged so many times, I don't even care anymore. My driver's seat looks like it pissed off a mountain lion and my interior panels looks like they were used to clean a mechanics hands.

No kidding.

^^ thats how I usually pull into my spots....LOL

Bought August of 04 and still have it 145,000 miles later

not picking fights...just sayin'...

July '05, 8 mi on the odometer, now a healthy 66.8k...

That's incredibly impressive. My pads and rotors were replaced at 65K and will need replacing in the not too distant future. I'm at 102K. 80% stop-go city driving. Murder on a car.

Same as nfn,
bought mine mid Nov 2003 with like 5 miles on it. Currently crossing 115,000. Plan to keep her as the "beater car" just to see how long she'll last. All maintenance done well ahead of schedule. Hoping my 10-yr-old son can make use of it in a few years...

'06 AM/Ebony 5AT Navi.

Delivery: 9/18/06
6 miles on the clock
Now - It now has 81K miles and the love affair is incredibly strong.

I have every intention of seeing 200K on this baby.

wife was the original owner of her 1990 integra gs (178K miles) until we (ME :-), actually) ran it into the ground. Then bought the 04 TL to replace it. 12 miles on odometer back in spring of 04, just hit 80K this weekend. Hoping it lasts another 100K. Acura just makes great cars.

Purchased new in February 2005, 4 miles

Plan to keep it for a couple decades

Good thread

You may have me beat...Don't think I bought until the end of Nov. I'll have to check my bos...

OK...I know it's not a 3G TL (mine is a low mileage 2008) but I am the original owner of my "baby" '92 Legend now with 255K miles. I hope those of you original 3G TL owners out there get as much out of yours as I have gotten from mine. YMMV

lol!
Got ours Nov 13th, 2003. Still got the paperwork in the glovebox. Had a 2001 Audi A4 (bought fall 2000) that was due to go out of warranty in less than a year. Short-story-made-shorter, I was on a first-name basis with the Audi service manager. Couldn't wait to get rid of it. Wife had a (perfectly-fine) 10-yr-old 1990 Integra that we traded (with 105k miles on her) for the Audi. BAD MOVE! Lesson learned... Bet on Honda/Acura, take care of the vehicle, and you're good-to-go.

Purchased Sept 2008
29700 on the odometer

Yeah, you got me beat by 15 days! Bought mine on Nov 28, 2003. Like you, I still have the window sticker and bos in my black owner's manual zipper case.

Interesting to note we have almost the exact same mileage: I'm at 115,163....

Doesn't surprise me. My dad got around 80K miles out of his brakes AND tires on his 03 Accord which he bought brand new in December 02.

I'm at 145,000 miles with the original front rotors and they still have meat left on them. Replaced the rear rotors twice.

Don't the front brakes usually wear out faster?

^ yea, this car is heavy as fawk in the front

Original owner here

21miles on date of purchase.
11/2006
78k miles.
UPDATE: Brakes: Original with some pad left! Probably can easily hit 100k.. Unreal lol OEM seems fine by my standards if the pads last this long. I'm 85% HWY and 15% City and that's probably pushing my ratio.

SQUAD UP! *Joe Budden voice*

Bought 2006 TL new on June 5, 2006 (assholes put purchase date of 06/06/06 on my TLC card since they completed the paperwork the next morning)

Got 28K miles on it.

I haven't seen some of you guys on the board in a long time.

^ instead we have a bunch of s who want to toss our salads.....

I went with the bbk at 90k and had a ton of pad left in the fronts and the rears looked brand new. Could've easily have gone 200k at the rate it was going.

..although pathetic, I enjoy finding those gems.

Will a one piece (solid disc) rotor wear more on the rear than a two piece up front? Seems strange that guy went through the rears so badly.. bad MC

Purchased my '06 AM 5AT in August 2006 with 17 miles on it.














Sold it on 7/28/2011 with 87K miles on it. Was still a fantastic car...just couldn't pass up a deal on one of my "dream cars."
