as for my experience with reliability in hondas:

1989 accord coupe, bought with 140kmi... sold it with 212kmi... no problems

1990 accord sedan, bought with 189kmi... sold it with 290kmi... needed a wheel bearing once, no other problems

1991 accord sedan, bought with 127kmi... still have with 200kmi... oil seal on the oil cooler went bad... easy fix, no other problems

1997 acura 3.0 cl, bought with 19kmi... still have with 65kmi... tranny had to be replaced, under warranty... no other problems

1994 accord, bought with 65kmi, now has 88kmi... wheel bearing is on its way out... no other problems

these cars all had their normal matenience and wear items... theres no way around brakes, tires... things like that...
