Super storm Sandy flooded parts of New York and New Jersey destroying thousands of vehicles. Not all were destroyed, however. There were a few that sustained only minor damage in the form of water on the floorboards and some were not damaged at all. As anyone who has driven in the winter knows, wet floorboards are not uncommon in cars. In fact, automobiles are engineered to withstand the effects from having water on the floorboards. The most important things to consider when looking at flood cars are: 1) How deep was the water? Did it rise above the floorboards and into the dashboard reaching the vehicle's sensitive electronics? If so, unless all of the electronics have been replaced, it should never see the road again. The cost of repair will surely send that car to the junkyard. 2) Assuming the water didn't rise above the floorboards into the dash, was the car allowed to dry out inside before the stench of stagnant water and mold and mildew began to grow? Often flood vehicles will sit weeks or even months while insurance companies work through the claims process and acquire a title in their name. If the windows are not rolled down to air out the car, the smell and mildew take over. At this point it's nearly impossible to remove the smell. 3) Can the seller tell you the depth of the water in the car? If not, stay away! Vehicles that have been water damaged will always have a water line indicating the depth of the water, similar to the ring you will find around the bath tub. This water line can sometimes be seen on the side of the vehicle. If not, check the door jambs and any area that will contain water such as pockets on the bottom of doors or the door pull that you grab to shut the door. Other areas to check would be behind trim panels, in the trunk, or in the motor or transmission. If water has entered the motor or transmission, it may have caused damage there and has likely reached the electronics in the dashboard, so stay away. The manufacturer will no longer warranty this vehicle, but for an additional amount you can buy a warranty. If you are interested in a warranty, please ask before you buy this vehicle. Ownership of this vehicle was transferred to me on a salvage certificate and the car underwent a DMV inspection, and I now have a clear Virginia title to transfer to the buyer. The clear title will carry the brand "water damaged," and will convey to the buyer the same rights of ownership as any non branded title. A sample of what the title will look like can be provided before purchase upon request. The brand is to protect consumers from being sold vehicles that have a damage history without their knowledge. It is never a good idea to make an expensive purchase without first looking at the product in person unless you are familiar with the seller. I recommend that anyone interested in purchasing this vehicle should come look at it in person. Customer's mechanics are welcome to inspect the vehicle and will have access to an automobile lift if desired. If however, you purchase it without seeing it in person, then inspect it at my place of business after the completion of the auction and find that it was misrepresented, I will refund any money received by me and cancel the sale. No returns will be accepted after customer takes delivery of the vehicle unless the customer purchases warranty coverage that provides for that. Please ask any question you have before the completion of the auction. After purchase of the vehicle I will require a deposit of 10% of the purchase price within 48 hours of the auction's end. Methods of payment for this transaction shall be escrow.com, wire transfer, or a cashier's check from a nationally recognized bank. THIS VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DRY WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND SHOWS NO SIGN OF EVER HAVING BEEN WET AT ALL INSIDE. I HAVE DONE ALL THE WORK NECESSARY AT THE DMV TO CONVERT THE SALVAGE TITLE TO A CLEAR TITLE. IT NOW HAS A CLEAR NON SALVAGE TITLE AND IS READY TO REGISTER AND DRIVE. THIS CAR HAS A BEAUTIFUL BLACK INTERIOR, BRAND NEW TIRES AND IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE, BUT IT DOES HAVE SOME MINOR IMPERFECTIONS. ABOVE THE LEFT REAR WHEEL THERE ARE SOME SMALL INDENTATIONS WHICH ARE DIFFICULT TO SEE UNLESS YOU LOOK AT THE CLOSE UP PHOTOS. ALSO, THE ARE SOME SCRATCHES WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN THE CLOSE UP PHOTOS. IF YOU WANT ADDITIONAL PHOTOS OF THE IMPERFECTIONS, DON'T HESITATE TO ASK.
So what am I selling? Brand new and used Hondas, Nissans, Toyotas, BMWs, and just about any other make. Some are floorboard floods in which water didn't rise into the dashboard and some did not get wet at all. I personally look at every one of the vehicles I buy and I have 28 years of experience in buying and selling vehicles such as these.

Buy a new NSX and you can put the badges on as it rolls off the line in Ohio
Mon, Feb 20 2017Acura announced today that new NSX owners now have an opportunity to see their cars being built at the Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio. At the starting price of $2,700, owners can participate in the "NSX Insider Experience" in which they'll tour the factory, as well as the Honda Heritage Center. The latter of which houses a HondaJet, an iteration of ASIMO, Honda's famous humanoid robot, and other pieces of Honda history. Owners on the tour also have the chance to talk with people on the assembly line about how it all comes together, and can even install the badges on their very own cars. If that's not enough, Honda offers a few other optional extras to make the trip special. They can add a tour of the factory in Anna, Ohio, where the NSX engines are made, as well as sign up for a performance driving experience in a new NSX. The driving portion is available in two- and four-hour sessions, and it takes place at the Transportation Research Center, which doubles as Acura's NSX proving grounds. Of course these extras will add to the cost, as will bringing guests. Honda even offers help with travel planning through Acura Concierge. The service can book your flight and other travel arrangements. It will also allow you to stay at the special NSX suite at the Joseph Hotel in Columbus, Ohio. Acura didn't go into detail as to what makes the suite specific to the NSX, but we're sure it's a nice place nonetheless. NSX owners interested in the program should check out the program's website, here. For people without the means to buy an NSX, you can still get a look into the factory by checking out our visit to the facility.

Acura ZDX getting the axe after 2013 despite new updates [w/poll]
Wed, 10 Oct 2012The Acura ZDX hasn't exactly lived a conventional existence, so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that its death announcement isn't going according to standard industry protocol, either. Parent company Honda has taken the unusual step of trumpeting a refreshed-for-2013 model while simultaneously announcing that this will be the model's last year. According to Acura, the model's cancellation comes as the brand "sharpens its focus on new models and core products" like the forthcoming RLX sedan.
The audaciously styled crossover has been, to be charitable, a very reluctant seller since its 2009 introduction, but for 2013, Acura is jazzing up its concept car for the street with new kit. The changes include a lightly reworked front shield grille along with new power folding side mirrors and new tech features including lane departure and forward collision warning systems.
We'd say that announcing the model's discontinuation at the same time one is presenting a freshened model could hurt sales, but we're not sure there's anyone paying attention. Last year, Acura managed to shift just 1,564 units of the ZDX, giving it the No. 4 spot on our Worst Sellers of 2011 list. Through September, Automotive News reports that only 642 examples have been sold in 2012, making it one of the rarest new cars on the market.
2017 Acura NSX #001 is finally here | Autoblog Minute
Sat, May 28 2016The first 2017 Acura NZX rolls off the line in Ohio and Lincoln may be ditching some initials for a classic nameplate. Senior Editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] The first 2017 Acura NSX rolled off the assembly line this week in Marysville, Ohio. Marking the return of the iconic supercar. VIN #001 went to Nascar Owner Rick Handpick. He paid $1.2M at auction for the first NSX. The proceeds went to charity. The 2017 NSX uses a twin turbo V6 teamed with three electric motors to make a total of 573-hp and 476-lb.ft of torque. The supercar also runs a nine speed dual clutch transmission and AWD. The starting price is $157,800 but you can option this thing out to well over $200k. Ford Motor Company applied this month to get the rights to the trademark for the word Zephyr. Lincoln is using some real names again aside from these MKC and MKX things that don't mean a lot to the general public. The Navigator is going strong and a new one comes on next year. Plus it brought back the Continental which was a well revived move. So Zephyr should ring a bell it was used in the 1930s and 40s, it was also used a little less memorably in 2006 on a Lincoln model that was essentially a rebadged Ford Fusion. Here's the take away: we think the MKZ might be rebadge as the Lincoln Zephyr. For Autoblog I'm Greg Migliore. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive.
