 You are bidding on a 2006 Honda Civic 4-door sedan EX in very good condition and with with low miles.  I'm the original owner, and this is my 4th Honda Civic since 1977.  Whether you buy my car or someone else's, I recommend Honda Civics highly, and I personally guarantee you will be very satisfied with this one---if not, feel free to walk away, no harm, no foul.  It's a fantastic car with no known defects. I do not smoke, allow pets, or eat in my car, so the inside is like new without any odd smells.  Although the paint is not perfect, it's been garage-kept and still shines up nicely.  All maintenance is up-to-date (records available), and the battery is brand new.  The car handles well, is fun to drive, and the seats are really comfortable for long trips.  There is no hump in the back floor, a nice feature for times when you need to transport 5 people. I normally drive the car to maximize fuel economy (folks call that 'hyper-miling' because the goal is to get better-than-EPA estimated mileage), and as a result, the car has not been abused in any way.  I've been averaging about 34 miles per gallon of mostly suburban driving.  Driving on the highway even at 70+ MPH, the car gets about 37 miles per gallon thanks to it's aerodynamic body.  If your view of performance differs from mine, you'll probably appreciate the 130 horse-power engine, 5-speed manual transmission, excellent suspension, moon-roof, and alloy wheels.  It's also got all the convenience features you expect including a jack for your iPod or other audio device. It's a safe, solid car for you and your loved ones.  In 2006, the Honda Civic was Motor Trend's Car of the Year for many reasons.  

Why am I selling?  Well, my wife makes do with just 1 vehicle, a Honda CRV.  Somehow, I have 5 vehicles at the moment, so this one should go to a new home.  Oddly, if I could have only 1, this would be it, but since I can have more, I have a bunch of special-purpose vehicles.  This Civic is the most cost-effective of any of our vehicles (75% of them are Hondas), and it does a lot of things very well.

If you're interested in this car and are in the Northern Virginia/Washington DC area, I'd be happy to arrange to show it to you.  The Buy-It-Now price is set at $500 below the Kelly Blue Book value, but of course that price will not be available after the reserve price is met---then the car will sell to the highest bidder.  If the car does not sell initially, I'll re-list it in June after I return from overseas.  Please do not bid if you do not have sufficient funds.  I have the title in hand, so let's have a smooth transaction.

Here are this year's top 5 automaker April Fools’ jokes

Mon, Apr 2 2018

April 1 is the wonderful day when PR departments really push themselves to top the zany jokes they came up with the previous year. And it's not just fast-food chains competing with each other, or breweries announcing they have released stuff like a fermented herring flavored beer: carmakers' media teams rarely miss out on the opportunity to play a little joke on their audience. Here are a few of our favorites from this year:1) Porsche Porsche announced that it's launching a Mission E tractor, styled to resemble its 1950s tractor models. "With a power output in excess of 700hp, the Mission E Tractor will be the fastest accelerating agricultural vehicle in the world, enabling farmers to harvest crops in record time with the added environmental benefits of zero emissions at source and significantly reduced operating noise."2) Lexus Lexus actually jumped the gun, telling us on March 28 that it's combining cars and drivers using DNA matching. The kicker was that with DNA-matched cars, owners would be able to start their Lexuses by licking the steering wheel.3) McLaren Automotive McLaren said it's boosting efficiency by quite eccentric measures, such as measuring the technology center's lake and floor tiles daily, and by synchronizing the staff's tea breaks.4) BMW Motorrad BMW's motorcycle arm is solving parts availability issues in remote locations by offering a 3D printer mounted permanently on the bike's rack: If you need to replace a broken-off gear lever, you can just print one. "The new system will mean that even very rarely required parts not generally stocked by BMW Motorrad sales partners can be supplied on a just-in-time basis." BMW even went to the lengths of announcing that the "BMW Motorrad iPart 3D Mobile Printer" was tested on the Antarctic, by erecting a tent whose poles were produced onsite.5) Honda Last but not least, Honda UK purportedly cut the roof off a new CR-V, calling it the CR-V Roadster. Tellingly, no convertible top was even offered for the concept, "making it a no-top rather than a drop-top. This innovative design makes it a vehicle purely for sunnier climates and therefore completely useless for the two-day British summer which traditionally occurs in May."Related Video: Featured Gallery Top 5 April Fools 2018 Image Credit: Porsche Green Humor Weird Car News BMW Honda Lexus McLaren Porsche bmw motorrad mclaren automotive

SAE World Congress: Honda FCEV fuel cell stack has cells just 1 mm thin

Fri, Apr 24 2015

The only update we have for people who are paying ultra-close attention to the progress of the hydrogen-powered Honda FCEV concept is that we now know how thin the individual cells in the car's fuel cell stack are. Speaking at the 2015 SAE World Congress in Detroit this week, American Honda Motor Company Manager of fuel cell vehicle marketing, Steve Ellis, told AutoblogGreen that the fuel cell stack is now 33-percent smaller and offers a 60-percent improvement in power density. We knew this already. What we didn't know is how Honda got there. Ellis said that these improvements are due in part to a reduction in the size of the fuel cell thickness. Each cell in the stack is one millimeter thick, he said. For everyone who isn't counting the millimeters of this car, here's the broader situation. Honda and the state of California (and others) are working hard on getting H2 infrastructure up can running. "The stations are accelerating as we speak," Ellis said. Three new stations have opened in the last few months and the state has pledged $20 million per year until there are 100 stations in California. Honda has also invested in FirstElement to install stations. The production FCEV will feature a range of over 300 miles and have a three-to-five minute refueling time. The car will launch in Japan in March 2016, with US and European sales starting at some unspecified time after that.

Honda, Mercedes top KBB brand image awards [w/video]

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

Kelley Blue Book has announced the winners of its 2014 Brand Image Awards, which look at brands with "attributes that capture the attention and enthusiasm" of customers in the market for a new car.
The award is divided up into luxury brands and everyone else non-luxury brands, with a number of sub-awards in each group. There's also a single award for truck brands. Taking the crown for the best everyman brand (for the second year in a row) is Honda, while Mercedes-Benz was the king of the luxury brackets. Ford, meanwhile, had the best image among pickup buyers.
Honda was also named the most trusted brand among shoppers, while Kia, GMC, Mini and Chevrolet also snagged awards for value, refinement, performance and styling, respectively. Secondary winners in the luxury ranks include Lexus, Buick, Porsche and Jaguar. Mercedes was also named the most refined luxury brand.
