This vehicle blue books for approximately $5,000 minus the damage in the right quarter panel from an auto accident that took place on December 3, 2013; however, neither airbag deployed.The vehicle was a good and dependable daily driver until accident - which was due to severely thick fog and lack of visibility. I am devastated over the accident and that I have to let this car go, as it is the best vehicle I have had since I was a teenager (and I am 40 years old now, if that helps figure the time period I am talking about..lol) 

 In April, 2012 the following work was completed on the vehicle:

  • spark plugs,                                                        
  • plug wires,
  • distributor cap,
  • rotor button,
  • fuel filter,
  • air filter,
  • prevention pipe,
  • gaskets bolt kits,
  • pipe,
  • muffler,
  • clamp,
  • brake shoes,
  • brake rotors,
  • brake pads, and
  • brake drums. 

All 4 tires in above average shape. It's a 5-gear manual transmission. The ONLY damage is to the right quarter panel (came off due to the accident and the front right headlight and blinker are missing); however, everything else with the vehicle is in above average shape, including the interior. This vehicle would be a good fixer upper for a mechanic or someone that enjoys fixing cars as a hobby. It would also be good to sell the parts off, as I know a profit IS to be made. Are you asking yourself, "well then why isn't SHE fixing the vehicle or selling off the parts herself?" That's a very good question and I do, in fact, have a great answer. I simply DO NOT have the auto knowledge to do either of these things - which is what led me to eBay.

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, as I WILL BE honest with you. Thanks for your time.

Honda demonstrates new Vehicle-to-Pedestrian safety tech [w/video]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

We're fresh from a balmy rooftop deck in downtown Detroit, where Honda held a meeting this week to discuss and demonstrate a few upcoming advanced safety features. A clear focus of the mini event was the company's new Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) technology, with a suite of Vehicle-to-Motorcycle (V2M) tech a significant second course.
With spirits still high from announcing the 2014 Odyssey as the first minivan to win the Top Safety Pick+ status from IIHS - and after seeing the application of new high-strength-steel sections of the Acura MDX body structure - Honda shared the fruits of some safety tech that is still in the research phase.

Acura already planning NSX Type R?

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Acura just took the wraps off the production version of its long-awaited new NSX, but rumors are already circulating of an even hotter version to follow. Meeting up at the Detroit Auto Show this week, Auto Express asked the NSX's chief engineer Ted Klaus about the prospect of a Type R version in the future, to which he reportedly answered: "I think everyone who loves cars wants to see a version that we say is pure red. The NSX has always been silver first, moving towards red later. Someone asked me, 'when will you be satisfied?' Probably never. What you do today, you can improve on tomorrow." That doesn't mean that tomorrow will actually come tomorrow, but it does speak to a spirit of improvement on the NSX team that could stand to keep the American-made Japanese supercar on the knife's edge and out in front of the competition, which Klaus identified as including the Ferrari 458, Audi R8 V10 and Porsche 911 Turbo. The previous model bred the NSX-R two years after its release (in the Japanese domestic market anyway), benefiting from a 265-pound weight reduction, a stiffer suspension, and though never officially confirmed, a long-suspected bump in output.

Honda gunning for world's longest Rose Parade float

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Honda has participated in the annual Rose Parade for the past 53 years and returns this year as the presenting sponsor for the fourth time running. But it's not satisfied merely putting its name on the event; Honda intends to lead from the front with what promises to be the longest float in the parade's long history.
The float, previewed in the rendering above, will measure 274 feet long, as tall as 30 feet high, as wide as 18 feet and weighing a whopping 50 tons with 8,980 flowers covering its surface. The train will be led by a locomotive designed to mimic the Acura NSX, with Asimo at the wheel. The second car in the train showcases a Honda engine, followed by a robotic arm, and, for the first time in the parade's history, a pair of 30-foot LED monitors displaying images of spectators lining the parade route. A caboose inspired by the Honda Jet will pick up the rear.
Oh, and in case you're wondering just who Honda will be knocking off the record books with its 274-foot train of roses, that would be... also Honda. The Japanese company set the record in 2005 with a 207-foot float. Scope out the details in the press release below and click the image above to view in high resolution.
