Update:  I thought I covered all the bases but apparently I missed some rules I assumed someone shopping for a car on eBay would already know. If your spouse is uneasy with you purchasing a vehicle on eBay that is halfway across the country please get permission before bidding. I believe I have done a very thorough job describing and displaying this beautiful gem of a Crx Si for auction. If you have concern about the car please address them before bidding. You will receive the title and a spare key in the mail if you are not local, after payment is received. If you want it overnighted it will probably cost 30-40 bucks, that will be covered by the new owner. The Crx in the pictures below is not a magazine article or brochure I copied and pasted, it really is in great condition! Like I said I cannot believe I need to add these statements but I really don't want to relist a fourth time or it will probably just go into storage until Spring. Hopefully this third time is a charm and the crx high bidder follows through. My auction received a ton of traffic, interests, and emails but after some issues the sale did not go through with the winning bidder. Please understand that no matter what the bidding goes up to, as a buyer YOU are responsible for shipping if you are out of state. The previous winning bidder expected the shipping to be covered. Also the vehicle will not be released under any circumstances until payment is received in full. Not half payment, or a deposit, or whatever. I assumed this was common knowledge but after the previous experience I'm adding this at the beginning. I hope this time around the winning bidder is an enthusiast of these cars and understands bidding here is a binding contract. Thanks and good luck! I read listings all the time saying they are selling something rare or as a survivor and the pictures don't match the description. This 1990 Honda CRX Si is a gorgeous gorgeous car. Is it rare? In this condition and in its 99% original state being this nice, I think so. It has been meticulously well taken care of by the same female owner since 1993 when the current title was issued. It is a pleasure to drive. This CRX Si runs, drives, looks, smells, and feels like much less than the 140 something highway miles its been driven. Check the car fax all the maintenance has been kept up. Timing belt included and this is ready to go another 150k miles. The tires are 195-60-14 dunlops in fair condition. Exhaust is quiet and at some point the chrome si twin tips corroded and they were replaced. Looks very good and as close to oem as I've seen. Remainder of the exhaust components appear original and oem without leaks. Engine runs perfect like a well kept Honda does. Axles are quiet. Interior is amazing. No tears in the fabrics on the seats. Drivers side shows and feels some wear but the pictures show that well. No fading of any kind. Seat si colors are still vivid like when they were sold in 1990. Air conditioning blows ice cold. Temperature controls are not broken or cracked. The radio has been upgraded to an Alpine cda 9820xm. The antenna is missing but cheap to replace. The exterior shows some wear, chips and scratches have been touched up and the paint shines well. Minimal very beginnings of rust blisters are starting to show on the moon roof but its hard to see even in a high resolution picture. Minor miscellaneous parking lot dings but very few. Worst is on the passenger side door edge and in some pictures you can see it. Sun roof works perfectly. This CRX was professionally photographed so you can see in a few pictures there was some effects added, for example cars driving by. Pictures were taken August 16, 2013 two days before this auction begins. The engine bay really is that gorgeous. The interior really is that clean. And the outside, paint, wheels, body lines, and all exterior components really do look as good as the pictures show. Its not flawless, but it is one of the nicest I've seen in a while without low low miles. The winning bidder could pick it up and take it to a local car show immediately. During the picture taking I realized the passenger side tail light lens was replaced at some point. There's an accident reported in 2007, I'm guessing they are related. I can find no other evidence of an accident and all the panels are original on the body. The car drives smooth and straight. If the tail light lens is a bother to you I will include the correct one installed upon pick up. Lastly it has older window tint peeling on some edges. Not hideous, not perfect though. There is no visible body rust beyond the minor moon roof blisters and maybe a tiny blister or two starting in the rear wheel wells. Miscellaneous sap damage here and there that hardened over the years has been touched up. it could probably be wet sanded and buffed to be improved but all in all this CRX is beautiful. It's clean. I hope a CRX lover wins the auction and continues caring for it just like its previous owner. I would keep it but after years of searching I purchased a Green Tahitian Pearl CRX si in similar condition. If its being purchased as a good solid driving car, it'll last you a long long time if its kept up. Feel free to email with any questions. It is unlikely I will end the auction early with a buy it now price but it is listed locally so you never know. Bid to win.


On Sep-20-13 at 20:37:42 PDT, seller added the following information:

I've had several interested buyers ask about the tail light. The light has now been replaced with the correct one, and I took pictures of the tail light panel. It all looked good and straight. If you'd like to see pictures please send me a message and include a number or email to send pictures to. Thanks,

Honda slaps Legend name on JDM Acura RLX

Mon, 10 Nov 2014

It's been eighteen years since we last saw the Legend nameplate in Acura showrooms here in the US, but in Japan it's still very much alive as Honda's flagship sedan. And now the Japanese automaker has revealed the latest generation.
Set to go on sale across Japan on January 22 - 30 years since the nameplate was introduced - the new Honda Legend is essentially the same model we already know in the States as the new Acura RLX. Only by "essentially," we mean exactly. It is the RLX, only with Honda badges instead of Acura ones. The manufacturer hasn't even changed the grille or the wheels.
Although the RLX is being offered Stateside in two forms, the new JDM Honda Legend will only come in one form, equivalent to our Sport Hybrid, with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive and a hybrid powertrain pairing a 3.5-liter V6 to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission with integrated electric motor. For the privilege of owning the most luxurious car Honda makes, Japanese customers will have to pony up ¥6,800,000 - which about adds up to $59,950 we'd pay for an RLX Sport Hybrid.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands
