on the driver door sill there was a sticker that said when it was built. I'll see if I can't take a pic and upload it. Won't be for a week though.. I am out of town..

I finally made a single trip long enough to check the odometer without too much rounding error. I have a Canadian LX (similar to US base) with stock wheels and tires, properly inflated. The odometer reading was 190.1km, 1.5% above the GPS (WAAS) tracked distance of 187.3km. The interesting thing is that the distance that the Scangauge reported, via OBDII, was 187.2km -- basically dead on. Guess that's why Honda settled.
