Very cool!
My uncles (used to be my dad's accord) was at ~300k miles when he just couldn't afford to repair it. The engine was still fine, except something was leaking (anti freeze I think), and he just didn't have the money for insurance. So he gave it to a scrap yard! It was an 83 Accord. 4-speed!

Wow. That's pretty impressive.

Even more impressive. Only twice in 1,000,000 miles?

That's awesome! I think I might get tired of the Accord after a million miles though.
