1995 Honda Civic Vx Hatchback 3-door 1.5l - 55 Mpg!!!! on 2040-cars
Warsaw, Indiana, United States
|
We have long dreaded
this day. Eight and a half years ago, we
flew to
So, let’s start with
the bad stuff – it is rusting out. This
is the only reason we are selling. It
still runs great and is very dependable, but the rust is progressing. I found that there is rust around two of the
bolts that mount the rear axle. So, for
that reason, I AM ADVERTISING THIS AS A
PARTS CAR. We drove it to work
today, and it still goes down the road fine, but that will be at your
risk. I believe that you could readily
drive it home to anywhere, but that is your decision, and my opinion should not
be considered. I am also not liable for
your decisions.
The driver’s seat
has some tears (in typical Civic fashion), and the carpet is worn out on the
driver’s side. The dome light does not
work reliably, and never has.
In 2010, a highway
department plow-truck backed into the back of the car, breaking the back window
and lightly damaging the window frame.
This was repaired, and new rear fenders were welded in, which explains the difference in the paint color at
the back. This did not affect the
drivability of the car.
How about some good
stuff? Well, it runs great and gets
great gas mileage. The VX model has a
special engine with unique camshaft lobes that allow for very frugal fuel
consumption below 2500 rpm. Since 2000
rpm in 5th gear is 65 mph, it is easy to save fuel.
The engine has over 248,000
miles, but still doesn’t need oil added between oil changes. The 5-speed transmission growls a bit at
idle, but shifts smoothly, and had a new clutch last year. The distributor was replaced a few years ago,
and the starter was new in 2013.
All the glass is
intact, although the windshield is somewhat pitted. There are lots of usable parts – the hood,
both doors, and front fenders appear to be pretty much rust-free. The car has the original alloy wheels, and
all the center medallions are intact.
Inside, the dash
console all works. There are aftermarket
cruise control and stereo. The stereo
display does not light up, but it works fine otherwise, and has an aux input
jack. The air conditioning works
great.
The tires are good –
two of them were new last year. You will
also receive the owner’s manual, and a CD version of the shop manual. The title is clear, and you will receive a
bill of sale for the actual amount of the sale.
I don’t play games.
We have loved this
car and have taken good care of it. We
are non-smokers, and the interior is pretty clean. I have attempted to describe the car
thoroughly, and to provide clear pictures that represent the condition. Your bid is a legally binding contract, so I
STRONGLY recommend that you or a friend look this car over before bidding. Bid intending to buy.
I expect to receive
a deposit of $300 within 72 hours of the auction end, with the balance paid
within 10 days. The deposit may be via
PayPal, but any amount over $300 should be in cash. Sorry, no personal checks or money orders. |

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
2015 Honda Civic Type R revealed [w/video]
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Earlier today, we told you how Honda has revealed a trio of new turbocharged VTEC engines, including the one that will be used in the 2015 Civic Type R. That's the winged, Batmobile-esque creature seen here. Ahead of a formal introduction at the Tokyo Motor Show, Honda is flaunting its new Civic Type R with images of the car testing at the Tochigi test track and video of the front-wheel drive hot hatch being put through its paces on the Nürburgring.
While the US is getting revamped Civic sedans and coupes, European customers will soon be able to opt for the 2015 Type R with its new Earth Dreams 2.0-liter turbo engine producing more than 276 horsepower. Honda has also made sure to give the car a styling that matches its powerful engine with a more aggressive front end, massive fender flares and a liftgate wing with unusual airplane-like canards. Honda is still withholding the Type R's official specs until the unveiling, but we can tell that the bigger wheels make room for beefier brakes.
The Civic Type R won't launch until 2015, but Honda has released the video posted below showing WTCC driver Gabriele Tarquini working the car around the 'Nürburgring, along with a brief press release. Check 'em both out and be sure to let us know what you think of this matte-black hot hatch in Comments.
