This 2008 civic hybrid is in great shape and drives perfectly.  It has a clean california title.  It was a well maintained 1 owner vehicle with lots of highway miles when we bought, and we sought it out because my fiance needed a reliable vehicle for her sales job with high MPG.  Its been great for us, but unfortunately she needs a slightly larger vehicle for work.  We just had it serviced with new brakes front and back (including reconditioning and replacement of rotors), serpentine belt(s?), engine and cabin air filter, and an oil change.  

As mentioned in the condition section, it does has a few small scraps and dings that you might expect from a vehicle with higher mileage.  also has one longer scrape along the passenger side which is hard to notice (almost impossible to see in the pictures), but does cause the passenger door to catch a bit when opening it, and the side mirror mount was knocked loose.  we reattached the mirror, which was not cracked or chipped at all, and it is pretty secure.  The mirror controls still work perfectly, and the mirror is perfect, but the whole piece no longer bends in (like you might do for a tight parking spot).

The IMA/engine light comes on and off(IMA is honda's hybrid Integrated Motor Assist), and sometimes the battery charge will go from full to zero then slowly recharge, but wether the light is on or off we've still gotten close to 45 mpg on highway trips. (see the pictures for shots of the trip and MPG during a drive down to san diego when the light was on, then turned off)

(for california residents:  this car requires NO SMOG, and is registered until dec 2014, with zero DMV fees owed.  I don't know if other states require emissions/smog from hybrid vehicles)

This is a really terrific and reliable car, and has honda's unbeatable reputation and resale value.
The auction is pick up only, but i wouldn't hesitate to drive this car across the country and can arrange delivery with a service like uship, or possibly even deliver it myself for a fee.
Feel free to ask any questions!

Honda Performance Development reveals new ARX-04b LMP2 coupe

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

Make no mistake about it: Honda is big in racing. It was the first Japanese automaker to enter Formula One, remains the most successful and is set to return as an engine supplier next season. It's powered more IndyCar race winners and champions than any other manufacturer, hands down. Honda has won races and titles in Super GT, WTCC, even motorcycle racing. Just about everything this side of NASCAR, really. And that includes endurance sports car racing.
In fact Honda Performance Development prototypes claimed over 70 victories and numerous titles in the American Le Mans Series, and took the first LMP2 title in the FIA World Endurance Championship. And with sportscar racing in the US now grouped together into the United SportsCar Championship, Honda is back with a new chassis design.
Called the ARX-04b, it's Honda's first closed-cockpit LMP2. Like previous LMP2 and IndyCar projects, it's a joint development between HPD and Wirth Research, and packs Honda's HR28TT engine - a 2.8-liter twin-turbo V6 based on (and using many of the same components as) the J35 engine you'd find in a contemporary Acura. Designed to exceed the latest safety regulations, the ARX-04b features low-drag bodywork, quick-change front and rear panels, the same locking fuel filler system that Honda pioneered for Indy, top-exit exhaust to meet noise regulations, a 75-liter fuel tank and a gearbox that can easily be optimized for individual circuits.

Honda recalls select 2013 Accords over fuel tank neck

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have announced a recall for 1,659 model-year 2013 Honda Accord vehicles. The affected Accords are Low-Emission Vehicle II rated cars manufactured between January 15 and April 5 of 2013.
The recall is pursuant to a fuel tank neck that might be out of specification, and the variance could result in the fuel pump not properly sealing with the fuel tank. As you might guess, a bad seal here could result in a gasoline leak, posing a fire risk. As of this writing, there have been no reports of fires because of this problem.
Honda will reach out to owners of affected 2013 Accords, directing dealers to replace the cars' fuel tank, nut and O-ring gasket. Expect the notifications when the recall begins in earnest on August 1. FInd the full NHTSA press release below.

Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.
