Who's got the most miles/kilometers?

My 2020 is sitting at about 13,000 km...so not to much.

I'm pretty sure someone made a thread about this already :p There were some people well past 60k miles months back. I'm sitting at 51k miles on my 2018.

Wow!
Any changes to the feel of the car since you've gotten it?
Not really, I did notice the transmission shifts easier and smoother now and I can shift faster. It did have its first transmission flush at 75k KM. In the first 50k km I would get grinds from 1st - 2nd a few times after redlining first and quickly shifting to second but that's gone now completely(knock on wood). Only thing that you will have to keep up on is tires, brake pads and rotors. I'm on my second set of winters and going to be my 3rd set of summers after 2021. I'm probably on my 3rd set of rear brake pads and second set for the front. I also changed my front rotors twice. So wearable items do get changed quite frequently but that's normal on cars with this performance. Only advice that I would give is to use Good quality oil(Motul, Liqimolly or Amsoil).

The only thing that started happening at around ~80k km is the infamous Honda Clutch slave cylinder squeaking noise every time the car was warmed up and its a known issue on Hondas(8th&9th gen Si and s2000). You just have to add high temp grease in the rubber boot where it connected to the clutch fork and the noise went away.

Friend of mine bought one of the first units to hit the states, he's over 70K miles now with zero issues.
