it has 304,000 miles on it and looks nearly new inside and out, no mechanical problems besides disposable issues. Nothing else to say.

This is a mechanically great, peppy little car. The seats aren't too bad and adjust for a 5'7" driver to a 6'1" driver comfortably. We've owned the car 11 years and has a little less than 200K miles. Other than routine maintanence, battery, tires, brakes, oil changes every 3K-5K miles we never had any issues....until now. The oil light has come on and the engine isn't getting oil. We stopped ASAP so hopefully no catastrophic damage but it looks as if the oil pump has failed. That is dissappointing as it has been well maintained. We'll find out soon if the repairs will cost more than the car is worth. Otherwise, it has been a great car.

This is our 4th Honda (previously had an Accord, CR-V, and Pilot). We bought this EX-L to use mainly as a commuter car for me. We've had it about 2 months now, and I've already got just over 3K miles on it. Gas mileage has been great, it's comfortable, and wind noise is minimal. I know it's considered a "compact" car, but it feels anything but compact. In fact, it feels about the same size as our '90 Accord! Overall, we're very pleased with our purchase.
