I bought this 1997 accord only about 6 months ago and the transmission went on it(I bought another off caigslist and did it myself..2 days, but this is a first for me, but wasn't that hard and I'm sure I did it right...I'm not a mechanic  but do most everything myself, just not good at electrical wiring things). Car is MINT otherwise(original paint , interior excellent, motor has 174k 4cyl vtec and runs perfect). Brand new struts all around and brake pads. Gorgeous car except something is wrong after I changed out the transmission. It works fine for a mile or so, then starts slipping like in neutral , but when I disconnect battery cable for a few moments and then reconnect it, it works fine again for a mile or so. Very weird, but I am frustrated wit it and already have $4200 into the car right now and am not familiar with electronic solenoids and other electrical things on cars. Its a beautiful car otherwise and I'd like to get at least $3,000 for it since the car really looks almost like it is NEW!!!! Seriously, its a beautiful accord and the 97's are some of the sharpest in my opinion. Its been garaged its whole life which is why I bought it, but I only put 1,000 miles on it before the problem started and I've got another car now and am not dumping more cash into it trying to "guess" what is wrong. Great for a mechanic or someone that knows more about these cars than myself. Pictures say it all. Seat covers and steering wheel cover I juist put on to protect the seats which are in perfect shape also. Dump a few dollars into it and you'll have basically a new car that looks it also. I'm not going to take a beating on it, so $3,000 is fair for the condition the car is in otherwise.  Plenty of 97 accord enthusiasts out there that would love it. Perfect for a manual tranny swap also(would definitely fix any prob with the auto tranny, but like I said, I think its electrical b/c when you disconnect/reconnect battery, all works fine again for just a little while. Selling in as-is condition on a first come, first served basis and will not hold w/out cash down. Thanks. Pics don't do it justice. The car is all original and in excellent shapebeside problem expressed. (Can have old transmission also for parts or whatever) Original paint is perfect, no dents/dings, etc.... Always waxed every few weeks... VERY nice looking Honda! I honestly don't believe you can find another 97 Honda accord ex in a s beautiful and rust free condition as this one. Welcome to inspect car prior to purchase, but info I provided here is pretty darn accurate. If you have a totaled one, with low miles, you could swap everything and have a pretty much new looking/running car, or just figure out why the thing keeps tripping something in the computer(at least that's what I think is happening because when battery disconnects/reconnects, the thing is fine for a little bit(warmed up OR cold). Could be something stupid easy, but I don't know, honest.  It started doing it shortly after I replaced the vss sensor on the transmission I put in it because the speedo and cruise stopped working. Now they both work but the other problem started within a day or two. It was a 1995 tranny I put in it, if that may have done something(and I think one said obd2 on it and the one I put in said obd1 on it(or vice-versa?).... Maybe that's what is tripping something, but like I said, I'm done guessing and pumping money into guesses. Looks as good as a car that's only a year or two old, honest! Very minor interior blemish's that are hardly even noticed unless you're me(I'm a perfectionist though)  If you want anymore detailed pics, just ask and I'll send them to you by email if that's ok.   Thanks for looking. You WON'T be disappointed by physical condition of this car. My neighbors thought it was brand new when I got it!!!!  Oh..., tires are prob about 65-70% still good and have a year or two of life still on them, depending on how many miles you drive a year.
NOTE:  I AM LISTING LOCALLY ALSO, SO MAY CANCEL LISTING AT ANY TIME. THANKS

New Odyssey ads feature Honda Vac, star power

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Honda has released a string of new ads highlighting its refreshed, 2014 Odyssey minivan. While the Japanese brand hasn't started bragging about attaining the first Top Safety Pick+ for minivans, it's all too happy to brag about another first - the world's first van with a built-in vacuum cleaner.
In three spots, anthropomorphic children's rubbish discusses the merits of the new minivan, only to be sucked up by the built-in vacuum, which is only available in the top-end Touring Elite model. There's also quite a bit of star power floating around for those that watch a lot of TV. Neil Patrick Harris from Doogie Howser, MD and How I Met Your Mother voices a character in one of the spots, while Rainn Wilson from The Office stars in another. Take a look below for all three ads from Honda.

McLaren-Honda drops the bling for stealth F1 livery

Wed, May 6 2015

Watch a Formula One grand prix and you can instantly tell which are the McLarens, visible as they are from a mile away with their reflective chrome livery. But that's all about to change as the British team has dropped the chrome in favor of the more subdued livery you see here. Unveiled in time for this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, the new McLaren livery replaces the bling with a gray so dark that it borders on black. The red accents remain, albeit in a revised pattern. The new livery promises to be less reflective at sunset and flood-lit night races especially, while providing more of a visual break from the Mercedes era now that the team is powered once again by Honda. McLaren first adopted the silver and black livery in 1997 after Marlboro (with its white and red livery) left for Ferrari and the West tobacco brand was brought in instead. The team parted company with West after the ban on tobacco advertising in sports was instituted in Europe in 2005, inserted some red into the livery and replaced the flat silver with chrome. This weekend's race will mark the first time in a decade, then, that McLaren will be racing without the chrome.

2015 Civic Type R will make 'at least' 276 hp from 2.0L turbo [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Honda may not actually be showing off the production form of its upcoming Euro-only 2015 Civic Type R at the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, but it did take advantage of the focused media attention to make a pretty cool announcement. In addition to dropping a really hot video of the new Type R testing at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, Honda Europe president, Manabu Nishimae, gifted us with some juicy details about the coming hot hatch.
Nishimae confirmed rumors that this Type R would make use of a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, while telling us that the mill would be good for an output of "at least 280 PS." A raw conversion from PS (metric horsepower) to standard horsepower gives us a figure of about 276 hp, or very near the rumored figure of 300 galloping, front-wheeled ponies.
The company will need each ounce of output from its new 2.0-liter engine if it is to meet its stated performance target: making the Civic Type R the fastest front-wheel-drive production car around the 'Ring. Apparently this last session of testing, with World Touring Car Championship driver Gabriele Tarquini at the wheel, has already gotten Honda close to the lap record. Scroll down to read Honda's brief press release about the upcoming Type R, and, more importantly, to listen to the car as it's throttled around the track.
