My dad has about 120K miles on his '05 Matrix. He commutes 100 miles a day for work (50 each way). By the time it's as old as your Civic, it will probably have 7 figures. If he still has it that is.

My Integra with 270K was still fun to drive, even with the rusted out floor pan. I can't wait to get to restoring it so I can drive it brand new.

nope iv'e only changed it once since I got my car and my timing belt still isn't showing any signs of wearing out anytime soon

Don't wait on it. They can go without warning. Engine rebuilds are expensive. It's happened to my family twice before (one time was because the retards at the dealer didn't tighten the belt correctly and it snapped in under 30k miles. First time was our fault. Thank god it broke right outside the neighborhood. I was only 7 or 8 at the time).
