This is the nicest 1991 Honda Prelude Si anywhere.

This car has new brakes, rotars, calipers pads, battery, radiator, hoses, original engine professionally tuned and mechanically restored to factory specs. Never molested. Just rebuilt with better parts. I had 3 very nice sets of keys made for the car as well. Title clean and in hand. 

Total blast to drive, this was the car that beat the 1991 corvette around the slalom. It carves corners. With the rebuild it has significantly more power because of higher quality components.  I bought this car a few years ago to restore, it may sound crazy but a 1987 Honda Prelude was my first car so it was a sentimental restoration for me. This car had been garage kept it's entire life, it just needed a little TLC. I had the engine pulled out and sent to a very reputable Honda specialist, the block was tanked, blasted and repainted, all new internals, rotating assembly, belts, hoses, radiator. The transmission was in perfect condition. The mechanical restoration set me back $4,200 and I had the exterior of the car professionally painted by a nationally ranked paint specialist. 

There were a couple rust spots that were cut out of a quarter section and new metal was welded in. That was a $4,500 paint job. I went with the Lexus Diamond white tricoat which is the very expensive paint. I have about $10,000 invested in the car over the last year and I just don't have time for it anymore. It runs great, new battery with 3 year warranty, fresh paint and maintenance. It's almost an antique vehicle and rare find for Prelude enthusiasts. The car has never been modified, only restored to original specifications. 

It has the original radio but it doesn't work, the A/C needs to be recharged but it blows, just not cold. Heat works fine. The speedometer doesn't work or works intermittently and the resistor that is needed no longer exists, I have searched everywhere. It has some some minor wear in the interior, but the car is actually in pretty good shape. Mechanically it's like a band new car, but it's not perfect. I am selling this vehicle locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Vehicle as is, no warranty. Buyer assumes all responsibility and arranges delivery and or shipping of vehicle. Serious questions inquires only. 

This is a steal if your not looking to put any money into a classic collectable Honda, all the work has been done and done right. All you have to do is charge the A/C and put whatever sound system you want in it and it's ready to go.

2014 Honda Grom motorcycle is a 125cc-shot of awesome [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013


My very first turn at the handlebars of a motorcycle came courtesy of an MSF Honda CB125. Despite the fact that it wore a very stern sticker on the tank warning all who rode that it was for instructional purposes only and not for legal sale, I wanted nothing more than to ride it past the cones of my license test and straight home. There was just something about the lightweight, low-power machine that just felt right. Now Honda is giving American buyers the chance to take home something similar. Meet the Grom. Yes, it's basically a sexed-up scooter, but that's fine by me.
There's a fuel-injected 125cc single pushing the fat-tired bike around, and a four-speed gearbox handles shifting duty.The smallish 12-inch wheels give the Grom a bit of a goofball appearance, but the handsome bodywork and gold forks help offset the look. Something tells me this joker is more fun than should be legal. Check out a fun video of the bike in action by scrolling down, and while you're there, you'll find a full press release on all of the new Honda powersports models, including the Grom. You can also head over to the Honda consumer site for more information. The bike will land in showrooms this August with an MSRP of $2,999.

2015 Honda Jazz should Fit right in

Wed, Mar 4 2015

When is a Honda Fit not a Honda Fit? When it's a Honda Jazz. In other markets around the world, our pleasant little Fit hatchback uses a jazzier nomenclature, but what you're looking at here isn't simply a rebadged version of the car we know and love. For starters, the Euro-spec Jazz uses a 1.3-liter VTEC engine from Honda's Earth Dreams line, tuned to produce 101 horsepower. (The US-spec Fit, meanwhile, cranks out 130 hp from its larger, 1.5-liter engine.) That powerplant is mated to either a six-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable unit, and will be the only engine initially available at launch. From there, it's pretty much the same, save the small running lamps that flank the foglamps. The Jazz should fit nicely within not only the Honda lineup, but the booming subcompact class, with lots of onboard technology, excellent packaging (including the company's Magic Seat rear bench), and – we assume – a relatively affordable price point. Check out Honda's Euro-Fit in our fresh gallery of live shots, above. ALL-NEW HONDA JAZZ REDEFINES B-SEGMENT WITH ADDED SPACE, VERSATILITY, REFINEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY - Third generation Jazz based on Honda's global B-segment platform - New 1.3 litre i-VTEC petrol engine from Earth Dreams Technology series - Extra interior space, made versatile with Magic Seats® system - Bold, fresh exterior and refined cabin - New Honda Connect infotainment system - Advanced Driver Assist Systems enhance safety 24.02.2015 -- Arriving in Europe in summer 2015, the third-generation Jazz features bold yet sophisticated exterior and interior design, with unrivalled interior space and versatility. Occupants will benefit from increased refinement and advanced safety and infotainment technologies, as well as a highly efficient and dynamic driving experience. While the newcomer retains the classic Jazz silhouette, it exhibits distinctive contemporary styling including a powerful new face and strong lines. The use of Honda's cleverly packaged new global B-segment chassis means that the latest Jazz is even bigger on the inside. The company's Magic Seats ® system ensures the interior offers unmatched versatility as well as class-leading space, with a range of configurations for carrying cargo and passengers. High-quality soft-touch materials and thoughtful interior design provide a sophisticated ambience.

Question of the Day: Ever consider driving a minivan?

Thu, May 12 2016

Since I'm supposed to know something about cars, it happens all the time: friends and relatives ask me advice about what kind of vehicle they should get. Very often, the only type of vehicle that can check every item on their wish list (e.g., hauls lots of people and stuff, gets good fuel economy, has great crash-test ratings, can take four Great Danes camping, and so on) is a modern minivan... and, of course, nobody wants to hear this. I'm not a minivan person, they will wail, and so they end up with a cramped, fuel-swilling SUV or a not-so-space-efficient minivan-in-disguise CUV. So, is it worth becoming one of those minivan people in order to get the incredible usefulness of these masterpieces of vehicle engineering, or do you hold your head high and drive something that doesn't quite meet your needs?
