She checked out good! The Honda tech said it was in excellent condition for a 2003 with 125000 miles. It isn't burning any oil and the engine is in excellent condition. The transmission problem I had was solved with the transmission cooler and now further gear chipping occurred ($350 transmission cooler > $4000 new transmission). The car was due for state inspection at the end of September, so I just had it done now because it's too much of a hassle to get it to the dealer during school. Since the car was undercoated yearly by the original owners and myself, there is no rust!
The car got a complete oil change, the transmission, radiator, power-steering and brake fluid was changed. The timing chain was also replaced. The car still had the original battery and it gave me no problems, but when they tested it was starting to loose its charge, so I had that replaced. They also calibrated the navigation system and gave me the updated voice guided navigation disc and washed the exterior and detailed the interior free of charge!
I don't think I can part with it anymore.. if it's a good, fully loaded car and it's going to last.. why should I get rid of it? It's only 6 years old!
