Hi

Selling this Vehicle - 1997 Honda Accord EX V-tec Engine in fair to good shape, in different areas.

What's Good: Engine, transmission, interior, functions, tires, windows.
What Could use some work: Some scratches, few small rust spots (one on hood, and quarter panels), ABS not working, it tries to start (buzzes) then quits and light comes on, missing door lock (where the key goes in) on passenger side, passenger side rear view mirror has cracks (but has a convex on for full use), CEL on: The car gives code 65 on diagnosis - which mean it needs the secondary 02 sensor. Now the car has a new exhaust without a CATCON (its over 15 years, so it technically does not need a CATCON). The CEL may remain on even after replacing the O2. The engine otherwise is fine and quiet for its age.
Major issues: None.

See good points/highlights below.
  • EX V-Tech F22B1 engine, one of Honda's best.
  • Original Paint, never in an accident, drives straight.
  • Oil changed, Air filter changed on April 23. Timing belt was done approximately 4000 miles ago.
  • 2.2 L Four Cylinder 5-speed standard.
  • Engine, Transmission, Clutch in great condition, runs strong.
  • Idles steady, shifts smooth, accelerates very nice.
  • No leaks overnight.
  • Body in fair shape.
  • Interior in great shape.
  • Honda original cassette radio, great sound.
  • Good condition on tires. Two almost new. Doughnut spare with full tread.
  • 1455XX miles. 
  • A/c works good. 
  • Powered windows, mirror, sunroof, moon roof, cruise control, wiper, wiper washer, all lights everything in working order. etc. - All working.
  • Windows roll nice and smooth.
  • All switches work nice and strong.
  • Power seat height adjustment. works, lumbar support works.
  • The car shows little sign of use in the interior compared to its age and miles. Most of the miles are highway.
  • Originally a MA car for initial years, that explains the little rust spots.
Thank you and buy with confidence.

Petrolicious profiles an 'original fanboy' and his 1987 Honda CRX Si

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Christopher Hoffman is a guy I'd like to meet. He's profiled in the latest installment of Petrolicious, titled Original Fanboy, because of his love and dedication to his 1987 Honda CRX Si. And that's something I can relate to.
My personal car is a black 1988 Honda CRX Si. Road & Track executive editor Sam Smith sold it to me in December 2010 with some 93,000 miles on the odometer (and one bum tire!), and though I don't drive it nearly as much as I should, I'm madly in love with my little Honda. I take immense pride in owning this car, despite my recent neglect. As soon as we're done with this Polar Vortex crap here in the midwestern United States, I'm going to pull the CRX out of its wintertime storage and show it the love it deserves.
Like me, Hoffman fully understands the beauty of the CRX. It's not super powerful, or even quick (when it was new, its 0-60 time was just over 9 seconds), but it's extremely light, and comes from an era when Honda was churning out brilliantly simple cars. The steering is incredibly precise, the transmission perfect, and the chassis superb. Nearly 26 years after its birth, I adore every moment behind the wheel of my CRX. And thanks to this Petrolicious special, I know I'm not alone. Scroll down to watch the full episode.

Honda Vision XS-1 Concept looks like a sportier Vezel [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We've talked a lot about the Honda Vezel over the past few months, as the Autoblog staff is looking forward to the Fit-based CUV. It's a handsome little vehicle, that we think will do quite well when it finally arrives in the US market. That said, it's not a particularly exciting vehicle to look at.
Along with the appearance of the Mugen-tuned Vezel at the Tokyo Auto Salon, though, a new concept that's being shown by Honda today at India's Delhi Auto Expo has us hopeful for a Vezel that looks a bit more assertive. It's called the Vision XS-1 Concept, and it's a seven-passenger (yes, seven) crossover that features minivan-style sliding doors. It sports Honda's "Exciting H Design," which is the same design philosophy used by the stylists that penned the new Fit. Unfortunately, at the moment, Honda has provided exactly zero details about what powers its new concept.
As a concept for the Indian market, which is home to some of the tightest, most congested roads on the planet, the stylish XS-1 is meant to demonstrate that Honda knows a thing or six about building compact vehicles. In that regard, we think it's a spot-on piece of work. Let us know what you think of it in Comments, but first, have a look up top for a gallery of images and then scroll down for a brief video and the official press release from Honda.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
