Year:2002 Mileage:171000
Location:

Charlottesville, Virginia, United States

Charlottesville, Virginia, United States

2002 Honda Accord Special Edition
Approximately 171k miles
Automatic Transmission

- ICE Cold A/C
- Sunroof (works great!)
- Alloy Wheels
- CD Player, Tape Player, and AM/FM all work great
- Cruise control, power windows, power locks with remote (too much to list)
- Tires have about 85% tread remaining and brakes were replaced 8k miles ago
- Just passed VA State inspection in January with no problems
- Very clean car inside and out
- Clean title in hand waiting for a new owner

The Bad:
- Transmission slips some. It has done this for the two years I have owned the car and has never gotten any better or any worse. I tried flushing the transmission, but that made no difference. A mechanic at the Honda Dealership told me that some of them just do that and it will probably do that forever and be fine.
- As you can see in the pictures, there are several spots where the paint is peeling. There is no rust and all Hondas in that generation have issues with the paint, so this is normal.

Other than that, there is nothing wrong with the car. It needs nothing at all and would provide reliable and affordable transportation for years to come.

Save money at the pump and at the shop and buy a Honda!

KBB range is $3270 to $3920, but my reserve is WAY below that due to the transmission issue.

Come take a look at it and take it for a drive but do not act surprised about the trans.  I want to emphasize that despite the slipping transmission, this vehicle is COMPLETELY drivable and I have been driving it that way for two years with no problems what-so-ever.  If you drive it like a race car and floor the accelerator, it will rev up between gears and spin tires, but if you let off the throttle just a little between gears, it hardly slips at all.  This car is not a race car and should not be driven like one.

The winning bidder is required to pay a $500 deposit via paypal within 72 hours of the end of the auction.  The balance is to be paid in cash when picking up the vehicle within 7 days of the end of the auction.  I can deliver the car to you for $1.50/mile from zip code 22901, email me for more details.

Please feel free to email if you have any questions about the car or would like to schedule a time to come inspect it.  I live in Charlottesville, VA 22901.

Honda is first Japanese carmaker to be a net-exporter from US

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Over the last decade or so, many foreign automakers have challenged the idea of what defines an "American car," but Honda took things a step further last year by exporting more cars out of the US than it imported in. Reuters is reporting that in 2013, a total of 108,705 Honda and Acura models were exported from the US with only 88,357 being shipped in. This gives Honda a net exporter status here, and makes it the first of such among the major Japanese automakers.
Honda's US imports have been dropping over the last five years while its exports have been steadily increasing. In 2008, the report indicates that Honda shipped 187,000 vehicles to the US and exported only 20,000, and even by 2012 Honda still favored imports with 136,000 imports and 74,000 exports. The article says that US-made Honda and Acura vehicles were exported to 50 countries with most ending up in Mexico, but the big news is that the Honda's US production set a record in 2013 with 1.3 million units built.

2015 Honda Fit shapes up for America [w/video]

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

The Fit may be Honda's smallest (and, starting at $15k, most cost-effective) model, but it has never sold in quantities that even approach those of the brand's larger offerings - at least not in the United States. Where American Honda typically sells hundreds of thousands of Civic and Accord models - even CR-V crossovers and Odyssey minivans - annual sales for the Fit typically amount to tens of thousands. But the Japanese automaker hopes to expand its sales in the segment with the introduction of the new 2015 Honda Fit.
Having launched the all-new model several months ago in the Japanese Domestic Market, Honda is presenting the new Fit to the North American market here at the Detroit Auto Show. By and large, it's the same model that will be sold around the world, having been redesigned with more aggressive styling, a larger footprint on the road and more interior space. Only now it will be built for North American consumption at Honda's new plant in Celaya, Mexico, where the automaker plans to also build its new Vezel crossover (or whatever it'll be called here).
The North American Fit ditches the hybrid setup offered in the JDM model in favor of a new Earthdreams 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with direction injection and i-VTEC valve timing to help it deliver 130 horsepower and 114 pound-feet of torque. That's 13 more horses and 8 more torques than the previous model, and the engine can be paired to either a six-speed manual or Honda's new continuously variable transmission. With the latter, Honda projects the Fit will get 33 miles per gallon in the city, 41 on the highway and 36 on the combined cycle. Lighter and more refined than the outgoing model's powertrain, the new engine sits in a lighter and more rigid frame as well, which Honda expects will earn it top ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
