1992 Honda Civic Vx, 60 Mpg, Low Miles, Always Garaged, Well Maintained, 2nd Own on 2040-cars
Johnston, Iowa, United States
Hi, I am selling my 1992 Honda Civic with only 135,871 highway miles. It is in great mechanical condition and has been well maintained. It is rare to find a VX with such low miles. The best thing about my VX is that you can average a little over 60 mpg on the highway. I have changed the oil every 3,000 miles. I purchased it last year and have put 35k miles on it. The car drives straight and there is not pull to the right or left on the interstate when you take your hands off the wheel. The suspension is good. The AC blows cold. The tires have 40% tread. The spare tire, jack, and tool kit is included. It has a clear title and has never been in an accident. I have bought and sold motorcycles, cars, and trucks on ebay in the past. I canceled my ebay account 4 years ago when ebay bought paypal. I had 100% feedback and over 1000 feedback. I just signed up again. That is why I have no feedback. I am a pilot and am pretty good at maintaining my vehicles. Please search "journey rider" on a search engine and you can read my blog about a motorcycle trip from Iowa to Argentina that I did 7 years ago. For maintenance I have installed an oem NGK oxygen sensor, distributor cap & rotor, Bosch spark plug wires, NGK spark plugs, wiper blades, air filter, and an Interstate Battery. I installed a Sony CD Player with MP3 port and an oil pan heater. The oem oxygen sensor was $400, so please take that into consideration. The cheap ebay knockoff oxygen sensors do not work and you have to spend $400 at the dealer if you want 60 mpg and not 40 mpg. Almost all of the VX's for sale have oxygen sensors that need to be replaced and with an old sensor the mileage goes down to 40 mpg or worse. As you can see from the pictures my car is in pretty good condition for its age. The paint still shines and has not been faded by the sun. The original owner had the bottom of the car undercoated and that has prevented most areas of the car from rusting. There is no rust in the driver or passenger side door jambs as you can see from the pictures. The only area of the car that has some rust are the rear wheel wells which you can see from the pictures. The car has some dings and blemishes but for the most part is in great condition for its age. There is light hail damage but you can only see it if you are standing a couple feet away from the car. The interior is in great condition. The drivers side seat bolster has a patch which you can see in the pictures. Other then the patch there are no rips, tears, or stains in the cloth seats. Everything on the car works. The only problem I can think of is that when you pressure was the back of the car a little bit of water leaks through the seal on the rear window. It doesn't happen in the rain, only when you pressure wash it. I need a larger car for my job and that is why I am selling my VX, It has served me well. I am only the second owner. The original owner was a university professor. Most of the VX's for sale have questionable maintenance histories. Be cautious of buying one from a dealer or a teenager. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. If there is a picture that you want to see please let me know and I will email it to you. The final bidder must send a $300 paypal deposit within 48 hours. The remainder needs to to paid with in 10 days. The winning bidder is responsible for picking the car up in person or making shipping arrangements. I can pick you up at Des Moines International Airport. If you pay for the car ahead of time I can also drop it off at a shipper's within a 25 mile radius of Des Moines, IA. The car is to be sold "as is." I have done my best to give an accurate description of the car, but I make no guarantees on any of the information in this description. Serious Bidders Only Please! Thank you

Japanese automakers will seriously subsidize hydrogen fuel stations
Wed, Jul 1 2015Fresh off the announcement of the EPA-rated fuel economy and range figures for the Toyota Mirai, three of Japan's major automakers are throwing their weight behind hydrogen on the other side of the Pacific. Toyota, Nissan, and Honda are detailing their partnership in Japan to subsidize the creation of an expanded FCV refueling infrastructure there in the coming years. The plan could provide a much-needed boost for goals that are already looking to miss their targets. The partnership, which is called the Joint Hydrogen Infrastructure Support Project, is subsidizing a third of the annual operating expenses up to a maximum of 11 million yen ($90,000) for any hydrogen refueling station that applies and is accepted into the program. For now, the automakers plan to keep this running through around 2020. Toyota senior managing officer Kiyotaka Ise tells Bloomberg the whole thing over that time is expected to cost 5 billion to 6 billion yen ($40.5 million to $49 million). In addition to the money, the companies are trying to raise awareness about the alternative fuel to build popularity. Japan has been pushing extremely hard to build the FCV market there for quite some time by subsidizing both the models and building refueling stations for them. By the 2020 Olympics, the country's goal is to have 6,000 fuel cell vehicles on the roads and possibly even 100,000 of them by 2025. The cars to fulfill these lofty hopes are just gaining steam, though. For example, the Mirai is already experiencing high demand, and Honda is set to bring its new challenger in 2016. This announcement says Nissan is aiming a potential entry for 2017, as well. According to Bloomberg, the fuel cell industry in Japan is forecasted to balloon from 400 million yen (3.3 million) in the current fiscal year to 100 billion ($813 million) by 2025. Toyota, Nissan, and Honda Agree on Details of Joint Support for Hydrogen Infrastructure Development Toyota Motor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., and Honda Motor Co., Ltd. have agreed on key details regarding a new joint support project for the development of hydrogen station infrastructure in Japan. In addition to partially covering the operating costs of hydrogen stations, the three automakers have also agreed to help infrastructure companies deliver the best possible customer service and create a convenient, hassle-free refueling network for owners of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs).
Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha to make swappable motorcycle batteries
Fri, Mar 26 2021Just as electric cars are becoming ever more common, the alternative propulsion system is starting to make headway in the motorcycle sphere. Companies such as Harley-Davidson and Zero already have electric models on sale, but other established brands are preparing for the electric future. Among them are the four big Japanese bike builders (Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha) who have a plan to improve electric bike adoption, and make their bikes very appealing. The four companies created an organization back in April 2019 for this sort of purpose called the Swappable Battery Consortium for Electric Motorcycles. And the group has now announced that the manufacturers have agreed on the specifications for motorcycle batteries that can be interchanged among each company's motorcycles. So if you have a Suzuki, you can use a Honda battery, or vice versa. This idea presents quite a few interesting possibilities. The manufacturers could sell bikes with or without batteries, since you might already have a battery from your previous bike, or just another one you own, so you wouldn't have to shell out to buy an entirely new battery. If, for whatever reason, you needed a replacement battery, it should be easy to get one, since the same type would support bikes from a variety of manufacturers. The pipe dream of battery swapping stations might even be feasible because of the standardization and support. And having the batteries relatively easy to remove could be good for apartment dwellers, since they might be able to bring a battery inside to charge. The manufacturers haven't said exactly what the specifications are for these interchangeable batteries, nor when they'll be implemented. But we'll be eagerly awaiting more information in the future.

Honda NM4 concept motorcycles channel Akira
Fri, 21 Mar 2014Honda has rolled out a pair of new motorcycle concepts at the Osaka Motorcycle Show in its home market of Japan, and they're our first glimpse at the company's "neo-futuristic" NM4. Shown in both stealthy black and an eye-catching white, the NM4s are sharp creations that feature interesting riding positions.
Honda calls the concepts' seating "the cockpit position," claiming that it unifies bike with rider. We don't know about that, but we will admit that compared to most sportbike seats - which are more or less just bits of padding to squeeze between your legs - these bikes' saddles look more or less like conventional seats. Honda says that their backrests are adjustable, which should provide a comfortable riding experience. Still, with these bikes' sporting looks, we can't imagine their low seats are going to be great for dipping knees through the bends (although the should lower the center of gravity, so perhaps it's a wash).
Both show bikes, NM4-01 and NM4-02, are powered by 745-cc, two-cylinder engines, while dual-clutch transmissions are employed to dispatch unspecified amounts of power to their wide rear tires. The bikes are nearly identical save for different colors, but the NM4-02 features an integral set of hard panniers for increased utility. We've got a gallery of both, so hop up above and take a look. You can also scroll down for a brief press release from Honda.
