Exceptionally nice 1990 Honda Civic EF 3-door hatch, with the desirable 5-speed manual transmission. I'm only selling this because I want to get into something modern and more comfortable for long commutes. It's a wonderful little car and I will be sad to see it go. It has been nothing but reliable.

Clean inside and out, needs nothing. 170,000 miles. I am only the second owner of this car. Purchased last October from the original owner's mechanic, who had fitted it with a new head gasket and distributor. PO and myself have maintained this car very well. It had the timing belt done at 158k by a Honda dealer, and I have the receipt for that service, so you're good on that expensive maintenance until at least 200k! Runs smooth and quiet, never overheats, gets 35-42mpg, and no blue or white smoke out the tailpipe! Clutch grabs nicely and has no slippage. Shift linkage is surprisingly tight and precise feeling. Handling is amazing. All around a blast to drive.

This car has NO ROT OR STRUCTURAL RUST AT ALL. There are, however, a handful of surface scratches and spots in the paint that I will point out upon viewing, but it is otherwise very, very clean as you can see.

The interior is extremely clean is only a couple little blemishes. Has a decent sounding stereo, good to plug your iPod into. AC WORKS. All electrical things work as they should, including the blinkers, blowers, etc. Valid inspection until 2015.

The car is mostly stock with the obvious exception of the suspension. It is on a high quality combo of Koni Yellow shocks and Ground Control coilovers with Eibach springs. Right now it is sitting low but is very easily adjusted for height and ride comfort. It also has extended wheel studs which allow you to fit spacers. The wheel bearings were done along with these a couple months ago. It has a gorgeous set of refinished, powdercoated 14" Mugen CF-48s in burnt copper. I will also include the original 13" steelies. Tires are brand new 155/55s.

Price is negotiable. All reasonable offers are considered.

Honda planning a second Vezel for developing markets

Tue, 31 Dec 2013

The new Honda Vezel was designed as a global product. Unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in November, the compact crossover is already going on sale in Japan, will soon reach Europe and will eventually hit the North American market as well - albeit with a different name and engine lineup. But it won't be sold everywhere.
According to Autocar India, the Vezel was originally earmarked to reach the emerging market on the subcontinent, but the declining value of the rupee has apparently forced Honda to rethink its strategy. Instead, the Japanese automaker is now expected to develop a second compact crossover - one more cost-effective to produce locally - for sale in India and other, nearby developing markets.
The new model would be based on the Brio, a hatchback that's smaller than the Fit (on which the Vezel is based) and built in India, Thailand and Indonesia. Honda has already enlarged the Brio's platform to create the Amaze sedan and Mobilio minivan. Building a crossover on the same platform would reportedly require some re-engineering - particularly around the wheel wells - but would apparently still be more cost-effective than importing the Vezel.

Honda spinning off Acura as stand-alone division in bid to wake up brand

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

Every major automaker has a different way of relating between its various divisions and brands. At Volkswagen, for example, the individual brands seem to operate with a large degree of autonomy. Under the Renault-Nissan Alliance, the two units share a common chief executive, but little else. The relationship between Honda and its luxury division Acura has always been rather close, but that's all about to change.
American Honda Motor Company has always handled sales and marketing in the North American market for both the Honda and Acura divisions, but new reorganization plans call for the two units to be separated under their own direction. Leading the Acura division will be Michael Accavitti, who moves into the position from his role as Senior Vice President for Auto Operations at American Honda. The Honda division will meanwhile be taken over by the current head of Acura sales, Jeff Conrad.
Both will report to John Mendel, the current executive vice president of the Automobile Sales Division that is being rebranded as the American Honda Auto Division. Unlike rivals Lexus and Infiniti - two brands that Acura beat to the market - Honda barely markets its luxury brand outside of North America. Its overseas presence is felt only in China, though we've yet to receive word on how the reorganization might effect that market - or for that matter, any potential of expanding into others.

Honda, Hyundai and Kia get best word-of-mouth recommendations in US

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Forget advertising, incentives and, yes, even our excellently crafted vehicle reviews, sometimes the best way for automakers to sell cars is still good ol' fashioned word of mouth. In an attempt to measure this "word of mouth" power, The Boston Consulting Group, a management consulting firm, has created a new study called the Brand Advocacy Index (BAI). The index takes a look at how various industries perform from person to person. Those industries include automotive, smartphones, grocery, mobile telecommunications and banking.
The study polled more than 32,000 individuals across Europe and in the US to come up with the top 55 brands in these various industries. On the automotive side of things, the top brands in the US were Honda, Hyundai and Kia, all tied at 63 percent. On a global scale, Volkswagen and Toyota scored the highest with a 65-percent BAI rating (both in France). The average BAI for auto industry players tallied 50 percent.
As for companies in other industries, Apple's iPhone was the index's top-rated smartphone, Trader Joe's was the highest recommended grocery store, Virgin was sat atop the mobile telecom industry and USAA was the top retail bank. Scroll down for the full press release on the new study.
