Great story. Great plug for Honda. Remember the old Toyota truck commercials where they showed owners and their trucks + mileage? Chevy did a similar commercial more recently for their Silverado line.

I love threads like this. Regardless the make and model, I have a great appreciation for people who can get maximum longevity out of their cars. Great advertising for Honda by taking the guy's car into the showroom, and congrats to him if he ever sees his. Hope his new car serves him equally well.
I can vouch for that. Driven both of them almost coast to coast.
I loved your Legend, Chris!
About 410,000 on the original engine, trans, and clutch with my 6MT 1994 coupe as of today.
I've had it since 95,000 but I have records since new.
Video when I crossed the 400k mark.

And I posted a few pics (along with complete service/maintenance history) shortly after that milestone, on Autopia:

I'm right behind you by roughly 23K miles...I should hit 400K miles by this May, June or July of this year...I look forward to that...
