I had a '92 4Cyl 5sp Accord sedan with 275,000 miles on it with the original clutch when I sold it. I bought it with 42,000 miles on it.WOW! That has to be some kind of record....
I also had a '97 Accord 5spd sedan with 205,000 miles on it with the original clutch when I sold it. I bought the car with 30,000 miles on it.
In my opinion, if you can't get 200k+ miles on a 4cyl 5sp Accord you don't know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle.
I am currently driving a '07 6-6 Accord sedan but only have around 71k miles on it. I bought it with 29k miles on it and had to replace the clutch & flywheel within 1k miles after buying it (during the 3rd gear TSB transmission reapair, I had them inspect the clutch because it had a very rough take compared to my two previous 5sp Accords. As I suspected, the verdict came in for a replacement). The previous owner clearly didn't know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle.
It will be interesting to see how long this 6-6 clutch lasts.....
