my 95 is at 59k right now. i need the 60k service. i haven't looked, but apparently the owners manual (could be the service manual) lists the timing belt replacement at 90k miles, not 60k. but i'm too lazy to check right now...

when i got my car (about a year ago), it had exactly 48,000 miles on it. crazy. the previous owner put less than 7000 miles a year on it. in the past year i put on 12k. i've been trying to keep the miles down as much as i can, partly to prolong the 60k service, and partly just cuz i'd rather "use" the engine less. at least for now. its just my preference i guess

anyways, anyone can get a lemon, no matter what car or company. my family got a lemon 1986 subaru GL wagon. had all sorts of problems, but we see others on the road running smoothly still. its just bad luck, thats all. hondas and most japanese cars do have incredible reliability, but they are not immune to lemons. japanese companies are still on the top of the reliability rankings, above european companies.
