2006 Honda Civic Ex Coupe 1.8 Efi 5 Spd. 65,105 Mi. 1 Owner Turbo Charged! Nice! on 2040-cars
Ramona, California, United States
From a fine San Diego estate....Non-Smoker.....Original owner was an industrial arts teacher, purchased the car from CUSH honda in Escondido, CA and maintained this car meticulously. Car was always garaged and as I stated before still has the new car smell. Car was smogged in California for 2011 and almost immediately had a TURBO CHARGER setup installed by one of San Diego's most reputable racing / motorsports shops. The owner passed away in November 2012 and the car has just been released for sale by the heirs. Installation of the turbo charger makes for a great racing machine but will never smog in California. As far as I know, the car will be legal in any of the other states. I have photographed the original window sticker and you should be able to read it with ebay zoom. I have also photographed the California certificate of title and you should be able to read that as well. Currently, the Kelly blue book range for excellent condition is above $10K for private party sale price. I cannot say that the turbo increases the car's value nor does it really decrease the value. I will comment that the performence with this setup is UN-REAL!!!! I have never experienced driving a car like this! One surprise was that the exhaust noise level is not offensive but I am sure that is louder than normal but have nothing to compare it to. Tires are MICHELIN Pilot Exalto A/S from Costco and filled with nitrogen and have plenty of tread. Mileage again is 65,105. Just installed a brand new battery! For any questions you may call (760) 788-0775 and if no answer please leave message. All things considered, it would be best if buyer or buyers agent looked at the car and test drove it before taking delivery or having it shipped. If need be I would be glad to provide the reference of the person I sold the other vehicle to last week from this estate. He came in from Nevada and has since driven back with no problems and registered the truck. Shipping a car like this all the way across the country can run $900 to $1000. I never send the vehicle and the title together....title always follows registered mail once the vehicle has been received. I know someone will LOVE THIS CAR. We have been selling on ebay since 7/'98....always try our best to describe things as they are to keep our 100% positive feedback reputation....However, car to be sold AS-IS!! we CANNOT offer or imply any type of warranty with this vehicle or any used vehicle. We cannot accept ANY responsibility concerning smog certification if California resident purchases car. AS-IS!! Listing price, $9450. Thank you for taking the time to look!

Honda, Subaru airlifting parts to bypass port labor diputes
Fri, Feb 6 2015It should be abundantly obvious that a vital element in building cars is actually having the components on hand to assemble them. A labor dispute on the West Coast between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and management is not making that quite so easy for some Japanese automakers. Work slowdowns at the ports have pushed Honda and Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries into flying some parts into the country. The two automakers began shipping by airplane late last month to avoid production delays, according to Bloomberg, but it has been an expensive solution. Subaru's chief financial officer said the decision cost around $60 million more per month than sending components by cargo ship. They aren't the only companies dealing with the problem, either. Toyota reportedly stopped overtime assembly at some of its factories here because of the delays in getting parts, according to Bloomberg. The dockworkers have been negotiating on a new contract since May 2014, and the current offer on the table to them has offered a 3 percent raise, according to Bloomberg. Although, the union is reportedly considering another slowdown at 29 ports along the West Coast in the coming days.

A closer look at the motorcycle El Chapo used to escape prison
Wed, Jul 15 2015Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera, better known by his nickname, El Chapo, stands five-feet, five-inches tall. This defining trait – his nickname, not coincidentally, can be translated as "Shorty" in Spanish – is an important detail in his escape, as the tunnel that stretched a mile underground that led the drug kingpin to safety measures just one inch taller than Guzman's height. Clearly, this was a well-planned and executed escape. The tunnel that was custom-sized to perfectly fit El Chapo started at an abandoned building in the middle of an empty field and ended in a tight shaft that led to the shower stall in Guzman's jail cell. In between those start- and finish-points was an impressively dug-out hole in the Earth, complete with ventilation shafts, wiring for electricity and lights, and rails on the bottom to serve as tracks for a custom-built motorcycle that El Chapo apparently rode to freedom. There are specific traits that could be useful in figuring out what kind of motorcycle we're looking at. All of these facts are well-known to anyone who's been following the story of how the most notorious criminal in Mexico could escape from a maximum-security prison in broad daylight. Especially considering that this event marks the second time since 2001 that Guzman has arranged his own prison break. There's one detail, though, that has caught our attention. A close look at the images released by Mexican authorities shows us a motorcycle that's been heavily modified specifically to work underground. We can't be certain, based on the grainy shots and limited viewing angles of the pictures we have access to, but there are some specific traits that could be useful in figuring out what kind of motorcycle we're looking at. For starters, there's the engine. It's a single-cylinder, air-cooled powerplant, canted slightly forward. The exhaust exits on the right side of the bike, when looking from above, and there's a short chain guard on the opposite side. Granted, that doesn't narrow it down all that much. A look at the shape of the fins on the cylinder and the shape of the head, though, makes us think this may be one of Honda's ubiquitous CG-series of engines. A quick look at the bike's frame shows a single downtube, dual shocks and a steel-tube swingarm. That means it's probably not of particularly recent vintage, but we can't really pinpoint exactly what model it may be.
Honda exclusive to McLaren at least until 2017
Wed, 23 Apr 2014Next year Honda will return to Formula One after a seven-year absence, bringing the first Japanese automaker to compete in the top-tier racing series back into the fold. But though it started in 1964 much as it ended in 2008, running its own team (much like Ferrari and Mercedes do today), its new F1 program will see it revert to engine-supplier status (like Renault did when it sold its team to Lotus).
The arrangement will be exclusive to McLaren for the 2015 Formula One World Championship. But what fans and insiders alike have been wondering is how it might expand after that. Well, now we have at least part of the answer.
According to the F1 business insiders at Pitpass, Honda motorsport chief Yasuhisa Arai told a group of journalists at this past weekend's race in Shanghai that the deal with McLaren will be exclusive not only in 2015, but also in 2016. In other words, it won't be until 2017 at the earliest before Honda might begin supplying engines to any other teams, if at all.
