Here are some pics of my 94 accord EX, as my better half describes it, it is the "step child" in our family(she drives it). I bought it in early 96 with 21,000 miles on it, today it has 150,000. I still love this car as it has been maintenance free and still holds its own with some of the newer cars out.

You can drive that car another 100K easy. I had a 79 320i BMW that I drove 390K with little problems. Wish I had some pics of the car but that was before digital and that I cared to take pics.
Your car looks great

Looks great! I`m over 130k on one of my cars. When I took it in for a state inspection last month, the service advisor said that it was the cleanest car she had ever seen with that many miles on the odometer. I hope my car looks as good as your Accord by the time it hits 150k! :mohawk

Great looking car, regardless of age! Looks better than most two year old cars in my area. What do you do (and how often) to keep the carpet in such good shape?

Looking Good. Keep on motoring.
150K and maintenance free, that is why I tell people to buy Hondas, maybe I should heed my own advice.

Thanks for all of the compliments guys, I really appreciate it.

Thank you, for the carpet I vacumm weekly and use a carpet cleaner called k-50(when needed), that`s it. I must say that my better half takes really good care of it(most of the time;) ) and that really helps.
I don`t think I am ever going to sell this car, so we`ll see how everything holds up. Thanks again everyone!:beer

Your car looks great! I couldn`t even attempt to compare with what some of my past cars looked like at 150,000 with yours.

Great job EBP! Holds its own is an understatement. I`ve seen cars come off the showroom floor in worse condition.
Kudos to ya bud!

Thanks Natty, I have to give credit to my better half, she understands my sickness and has really taken good care of the car. Not that she would wash it or anything, but she keeps the inside pretty clean from day to day, makes my weekend cleaning much easier.
