Default 900,000 Miles!!!

Dude i asked this guy if i could buy his CRX today right, and he said yeah for $200. I said yeah that kicks ass but why so low? He said it had 900,000 miles on it! Thats f'ing insane! I've never heard of a car witht hat many miles on it. I dunno why im posting this, just bored i guess.

O yeah im buyin the car since im swappin the engine anyways as soon as i get it so who cares bout the mileage and whatnot.

I have got to see a picture of this. Of course it would be a Honda that has that many miles. But then again it could be a trick. Like someone could, theoreticaly, jack the car up and let the tires spin for days or something just to get the miles up really high to astonish people.

i dont think its real. or he could do that little trick to reverse miles, but instead he made it go up.

I think it could be real, some people that travel all over put major miles on cars. A CRX does not seem like the most comfortable thing to do that but whatever (my integra is BAD on long trips). I would love to see a pic of that, i got a pic of mine when it turned 200,000

Im glad to see other high milers here. My integra has 206,000 (just turned tonight) and people react like its so high, my dad had an Accord with 230,000, if my bro did not reck it, it would have ran forever, not a single problem.

The highest milage car I can remember seeing was an RX-7 (gasp!) with around 370k miles on the clock.

900k is possible, I'd believe him if he only wants $200 for it.

Beware though, literally everything on the car is probably worn out.
