This is the Honda Civic - SI I-VTEC DOHC.   At the time I write this, there are no mechanical problems that I am aware of, nor have there been since I bought it.  Only have replaced the battery and brake pads.  The car is just as solid and peppy as the day I drove it off the showroom floor.  It is a great, great car.  I am the original owner.  It has 4 new 94V Wintrac Xtreme XL tires ( 7,000 miles on them) and a new battery within the last year.  The interior is in very good  to excellent condition other than one unfortunate flaw - there is a small cigarette burn on the back seat.  Someone was back there smoking - need I say more.  The SI is noted for having the red stitching throughout the car including the steering wheel - there is no broken stitching anywhere!  The only functional issue to mention is last week the drivers side automatic door lock stopped working (passenger and hatch are fine).  It needs a new actuator put in ($15 part). The outside does have some scratches and small dings as to be expected with a 9 year old car, but there is nothing major!  The scratches and dings are minor - you actually cannot feel them, just see them.  This SI has the sunroof and it does not leak!!!  I have religiously changed the oil every 3,000 miles, and it just passed the Illinois emissions control test in September.  It really is an awesome car.  Please email me with any questions that you might have - I will be 100% honest with you.  Local pick-up or I will work with you if you need to have it shipped (buyer's expense).  I sold my Alfa Romeo on ebay and worked with the buyer to ship it to Pennsylvania.  I require a $500 deposit thru Paypal within 24 hrs with payment in full within 7 days of auction close through Paypal or with a cashier checks or money order.  Car can be picked up or shipped when money has cleared. Thank you for looking.

NOTE:  Someone asked me why I was selling the car and how it was driven for the time that I owned it.  I am selling it because I fell in love with the Hyundai Veloster - Turbo - Red!!  I really had no intention of buying a new car (obviously since I had just spent $800 on new tires), but I saw the Veloster on the showroom floor and it was over.  My Civic SI was driven with respect.  I am a 65 yr. old female, but don't let that fool you.  I love cars and I am a very good driver.  I have always owned sportscars (Porsche, 2 Alfa Romeos).  I bought the SI because it came very close to handling like my Porsche and the shift gear came out of the dash like in my Alfas.  So, to me it was the best of both worlds.  It handled like a sportscar yet I could put things in there from Home Depot!.  So, did I drive it fast, yes at times, but never recklessly.

Another question to answer:  My reserve price is not much more than my starting auction price.

Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
