I am putting up my 97 Honda Accord Wagon thats been my daily driver for the past year. Im purchasing a new car and my wife wont let me keep this one. 


Currently has 244k on it; yes that seems like alot but read on about everything that was done to this car in the past year.

5000 miles ago I had new timing belt, water pump, alternator fan belt, power steering belt, all new hoses (can see the tags still on the hoses) new tires. A brand new rack and pinion assembly, new front strut rod bushings, new output shaft seals, new sway bar kit. Also new heater control valve, fresh radiator coolant and brake fluid flush. Lowered on Eibach springs with alignment and camber print out. New light bulbs all around. Passes smog no problem.

Also smoked out headlights with Angel eyes and 6k HID's. Interior wise I installed a full sound system. Its not overbearingly loud but has some really good highs and enough bass. I dont like the loud obnoxious bass. Pioneer head unit with blue tooth and usb charging. Blue tooth mic hooked on upper left pillon for hands free calling. 4 kenwood 3 way speakers powered by 4 channel amp hidden under passenger seat. Infiinity soundlink 10' powered sub with manual control located under dash. Pioneer tweeters. The whole system is inconspicuously wired so nothings hanging out and about. Sunroof also works 100% with no leaks.

I have receipts for all this labor and parts and its over 3 grand. Pretty much all preventative maintenance to make sure this thing lasts, dont see enough wagons these days. 

Power locks and power windows (new motor in driver window) automatic (wish it was stick). Interior is very clean for its age IMO. 

Full Disclosure:
Cruise control button lights up but doesn't activate. Not sure if its a fuse or something else. Does not effect day to day driving. 
Drivers side door lock takes a slight pull on the handle and push on the lock. Still locks all other doors in the process. The auto locks on the door still unlocks all the car locks but not the drivers. Cant figure out why.
No abnormal fade or sun spots in paint but there is little nicks here and there hey its a 97 lol
New belts squeal for a second on start up fade after a few seconds, not a big deal.
No idea on gas mileage I just know I get about 325-50 miles per tank.

I have new oil and filter in hand ready to be changed prior to exchange.

I am sure there is something I am missing but tried to give as much info as I could think off my head. Any questions feel free to email. Will take cash, check, money order. Will work with shipping or local pickup hell if your reasonably close Ill bring it to you.


Note: I see auto check says the vehicle was in a rear end collision in 01. This is news to me and never even noticed. Completely unnoticeable.

Asian automakers still reluctant to use more aluminum

Tue, Jun 24 2014

There's a logical progression of technology in the auto industry. We've seen it with things like carbon-ceramic brakes, which use to be the sole domain of six-figure sports cars, where they often cost as much as an entry level Toyota Corolla. Now, you can get them on a BMW M3 (they're still pricey, at $8,150). Who knows, maybe in the next four a five years, they'll be available on something like a muscle car or hot hatchback. Aluminum has had a similar progression, although it's further along, moving from the realm of Audi and Jaguar luxury sedans to Ford's most important product, the F-150. With the stuff set to arrive in such a big way on the market, we should logically expect an all-aluminum Toyota Camry or Honda Accord soon, right? Um, wrong. Reuters has a great report on what's keeping Asian manufacturers away from aluminum, and it demonstrates yet another stark philosophical difference between automakers in the east and those in the west. Of course, there's a pricing argument at play. But it's more than just the cost of aluminum sheet (shown above) versus steel. Manufacturing an aluminum car requires extensive retooling of existing factories, not to mention new relationships with suppliers and other logistical and financial nightmares. Factor that in with what Reuters calls Asian automaker's preference towards "evolutionary upgrades," and the case for an all-aluminum Accord is a difficult one. Instead, manufacturers in the east are focusing on developing even stronger steel as a means of trimming fat, although analysts question how long that practice can continue. Jeff Wang, the automotive sales director for aluminum supplier Novelis, predicts that we'll see a bump in aluminum usage from Japanese and Korean brands in the next two to three years, and that it will be driven by an influx of aluminum-based vehicles from western automakers into China. Only time will tell if he's proven right. News Source: ReutersImage Credit: Sean Gallup / Getty Images Plants/Manufacturing Honda Hyundai Mazda Nissan Toyota Technology aluminum

Honda takes us through 50 years of automobiles in 60 seconds

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

Honda's wonderfully simple, fun ads are not in short supply right now. We showed you Hands, the followup to 2003's The Cog, last week. If you haven't had a chance to look at those two great videos, we strongly encourage you to head over that way and give them a watch.
The latest minute-long commercial is a bit more dear, though. And while it may be in Japanese, it's still a cool look back at Honda and its car-building history.
This is also a great video if you're a fan of odd, vintage Japanese vehicles. Honda's T360 and a few old Civics are featured heavily, although we can't help but notice that a few very big names are missing. Where's the NSX or the S2000? How about the original Insight, a car so revolutionary it still has a cult following today? Honda has made some great cars, we just wish it'd show off more of them. Check out the video below.

Honda Civic Tourer images arrive early on web

Sun, 03 Mar 2013

Honda provided a teaser sketch of its Civic Tourer concept wagon about a month ago (right), but today, just a couple days before its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, we've found these official pics of the car in question from WhatCar?
The Civic Tourer concept adds a little length and height to the current Civic hatchback sold in Europe, stretching the shape every which way to make a new wagon model that will compete with cars like the new Volkswagen Golf Variant, which is also making its debut in Geneva this week.
As we mentioned when Honda released the teaser sketch last month, the European Civic is different from the Civic sold here in the US, so the production version of this concept, which should debut in the fall, will never see the inside of a dealership in the States. Do you care, or does the smaller Fit fill that role well enough for Americans?
