Salem, Oregon, United States

Hi im selling this beautiful rare color 1978 honda civic,no rust, no holes, straight body, no major dents, few minor scratches on paint. The paint isnt perfect or anything, paint peeling in spots here and there, nothing major.Runs and drives awesome. Speedo stopped working its hooked up but it broke on the back of the cluster recently. Just had the valves adjusted today, oil change today, spark plugs changed today, and clutch and brakes bleed today.
The car has a slight grind if you shift into 3rd real fast, i notice if i double shift it like it should and go more into gear towards fifth it doesnt grind as often. It drives fine as is, but i just wanted to point that out. Gauges all work except for speedo. It has early recaro blue seats, has a rip on driver side from getting in and out, im sure you can recover them, passenger side is pretty good! no radio, it has back speakers, but i just used my bluetooth speaker to play music. It has an aftermarket old school honda steering wheel, not sure of brand, but it looks cool. 13" wheels with good tires still. It has an aftermarket coil, fuel pump, and other than that, its basically all stock and original. These things used to get 40 mpg, im not 100% what it gets now, but its good. This car gets alot of love from honda guys, its a 1st gen civic, so these will always have some sort of value to honda guys and car enthusiasts. This is a running and driving car! you can come fly in and drive it home. i wouldnt be afraid to drive this thing all across the country right now. It's not a show car, although its in very good shape for the year, itd be hard pressed to find another one in this good of shape around here unless you want to pay big bucks for it, you just dont see them very often and they are becoming more rare to find in good condition. any questions, feel free to call me 9712396989 also i can make a video of this running and driving if you want, feel free to text me and ill make you a video or take any pics you want. On Mar-30-14 at 10:25:14 PDT, seller added the following information: heres a short video of the car driving, sorry this isnt a great video or anything.... sorry ebay wont let me post it . text me for it |

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads
Thu, 11 Jul 2013Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
Recharge Wrap-up: Honda Legend Sport Hybrid launching in Japan; driving cross-country on chicken fat
Tue, Nov 11 2014Honda will begin sales in Japan of the Legend Sport Hybrid SH-AWD in January. The Legend is Japan's answer to the Acura RLX Sport Hybrid sold in the US. Up front, the new flagship sedan uses a 3.5-liter V6 with cylinder deactivation and a seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission with integrated electric motor. In the rear, a dual electric motor unit supplies power to the wheels. The three electric motors are also used for generating electricity during deceleration. The car has three drive modes, including EV Drive, Hybrid Drive and Engine Drive. The result is a fuel economy rating of 40 mpg, according to the JC08 cycle.

While Jay Leno explains how marketing early electric cars toward women caused them to lose out to internal combustion, the same can't be said about the current era of EVs. Leno says that early EVs, like Leno's beloved Baker, appealed to women because they were quiet, clean, and didn't require cranking to start them. This led to accessorization marketed toward women, causing men - who had more buying power than women at the time - to shy away from EVs. This time around, though, EVs target a broader audience in a different culture from the early 20th century. See Leno explain the early EV culture while driving his Baker Electric in the video below and read more at Hybrid Cars. GKN's two-speed eAxle allows EVs to make the most of both acceleration and top speed. Single-speed transmissions must sacrifice top speed for acceleration, or vice versa. In addition to improving performance at all speeds and increasing range, the GKN's eAxle also performs well in terms of NVH, providing seamless shifts and low gear noise. In order to package the eAxle in the BMW i8, the unit is just 12.8 inches by 22.1 inches by 12.3 inches and weighs 60 pounds. Read more at Green Car Congress. An alternative fuels researcher at Middle Tennessee State University will drive a truck powered by chicken fat biodiesel across the country. Professor Cliff Ricketts is driving a converted 1981 Volkswagen Rabbit pickup from Key West, FL to Seattle, WA to demonstrate the viability of chicken fat as a fuel. Ricketts admits, though, that the truck's exhaust stack is loud and smells like French fries. Read more at Domestic Fuel. This content is hosted by a third party.

NSX Concept-GT is the world's hottest way to boil water
Sat, 05 Oct 2013The Honda NSX Concept-GT is one sexy machine, and it looks to be a very effective tool on a race circuit. But Honda's latest web spot leads us to believe that it also can be used to make tea.
In the video, the racecar is hooked up to an apparatus that uses tubing to harness the energy from the car's 500-horsepower hybrid drive system, using it to boil water. The novel tea-making technique reminds us a bit of a couple other inventive Honda commercials, namely Hands and Cog.
Watch the NSX ad below, and be sure to turn the sound up to hear that glorious engine note.
