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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.
