No, mine has over 320k, but much more maintained and cared for. This one was like a red headed step child. A good life non the less. A master technician could fix it for about 5 grand but that doesn't covet time labour' and parts.
Work, my mom was at KU med so that was a lot of it. It went everywhere and used it always. We seen alot in this car and got many monies worth out of it. Borrowers too. My Sport has better seats
and this was only a LX model. It wasn't mistreated but the CVT fluid only got changed every 60,000 MI and I change mine every 10 or 20,000 miles and my guess is the fluid eventually broke down from the sheer of the chain and eventually of varnish and breakdown started to happen which won't be the case of mine. It's still a good story for a car and I'm sure one of the senior Honda techs might buy it and get it restored which they could for about $5,000. It wasn't mistreated, it's still drives but it's leaking all types of fluids and somebody who really knows what they're doing needs to completely tear, port and polish all the internals and rehone the cylinder wall and such. It won't probably run well on a 5W-40. My Hope Is that somebody throws a small Garrett turbocharger on it and continues to drive it. The paint is pretty good but it needs somebody who has the energy and time and money to put into it.
It's her car. She nurse travels in it or did
Nice find! Some coin shop is seeding the local change in order to build interest in collecting.
The chances of getting something like that as change is almost zero. Hard to think it was even in circulation.
Yes I’ve seen that before. Coin shops putting wheat pennies and sometimes Indians into circulation. Sometimes silver certificates and funny back $1 too, though they’ve gotten too valuable anymore.You really think so??Very interesting
I think it's schist which may contain gemstones. Look for foliation or layering. I believe we have on the forum a few fossils who are into rocks and know all about them.
