almost 5k, bought in Sept 07!

 

Only 4k km at the moment, got the car in late October.

 

17k just came up in a shade under 2 years.

just 2 oil changes, following the computer advice for services as per the handbook.

has been totally reliable..

 

Got mine in October 2006 with 5k, now at 29K- two trips to Nor Cal, one to Arizona, the rest just commuting to work...

 

I didn't see you mention when you got your car. How long have you had it?

No matter when you got it, that is impressive or insane, depending on point-of-view.

What model was the Honda that hit 700k?

 

The Fit since July, 2006.

The other Honda was an Odyssey - and those are kilometers. It would have lasted longer if I maintained it properly. It never burned any oil. It started dripping oil after I brought it in for a new timing belt at around 500,000 kilometers and I let the oil go way to low a few times. Then after that, I kinked the oil filter while tightening it and the filter started to leak causing the warning light to come on. I am not the world's best mechanic.

So far the our Fit hasn't been taken in for maintenance and is totally dry underneath (no leaks) - whereas several times after the Odyssey was brought in for maintenance, things started dripping more than before. Gaskets must be finicky things. Perhaps the Odyssey could be repaired at the Honda Dealer - but I prefer the better mileage of the Fit - so it's just sitting in the driveway.

I think the Odyssey's oil had to be changed every 5,000 km (3,000 miles) - which came up as quickly as 11 days. After the warranty period was over, I didn't follow that schedule too closely.

Everything on the Odyssey just lasted so long in comparison to other cars our family has had. I was genuinely puzzled why I didn't have to replace stuff like batteries, mufflers, belts, and hoses. (In my other cars, I used to carry spare belts and hoses in the trunk.)
Because of the Odyssey, I wasn't even the least bit concerned about having to use the warranty on the Fit.

I just love the Fit because the Maintenance Minder indicates I should change oil about every 14,500 km (9,000 miles) instead of every 5,000 km (3000 miles).

 

I've had mine since April 28, 2006. It was out of commission for a total of 2 months (2 Accidents ) and has 50,600 miles. I've almost caught back up with you Chris G

 

took this few days ago

 

Interesting. One of the other Hondas in my stable is a 97 Odyssey. Everyone said the 1st gen Odys were good, so I picked up a sort-of beater for my business. It has 110k (miles) on it now and feels as rock solid as a new car. It was dripping a bit of oil, but they found a sensor gasket was the problem...$26 later, no oil drip.

After buying a new full size van for the business, my mother-in-law is going to buy the Odyssey from me, which is great because I think it has a tremendous amount of life left in it.

 

Hey that needle is a bit to the left side!!

 

13k. Bought it in Mid august of 07. so around 2600 miles a month.

 

dang 3k miles in 11 days...how often do u drive x.x

 

only around 32k since april '06

yah there's some delivery courier dude around here with big miles.

 

I've come to a slight conclusion - the Fit is so much fun to drive, gets such great gas mileage, that we Fit owners drive more than we should. There aren't too many cars that are legitimately "fun" to drive that also sip on gas.

OK, granted the Fit is not fast by any means, but it's wayyy fun through corners and in general just a spirited little car. Props to Honda.
