All original except tires and brake pads.
LOL, do you mean to tell us that you could't squeeze 100,000 miles out of your S02's.

Any idea how she drives? Does she drive incredibly soft on it? Has anyone else seen 237,000 miles out of a factory clutch on a sports car?

I'm all about the budget so I've been keeping a eye out on higher KM S2K's and I'm down for buying one with higher KM's on it...Honda makes solid built engines and cars in general.

The shocks must have been replaced as well. No way the original shocks could last that long without the ride and handling feeling like total garbage. Serpentine belt too maybe.

Well, in order to put that many miles on, there must be a lot of highway driving involved... Put it into 6th and go for a few hundred miles. There is no wear on the clutch during those few hundred miles...

M = Model
Y = Year

xxxx = the actual year (IE: 2004 in your case).
