This is what I have on Craigslist. Its a great car for someone who needs a reliable family sedan...
Excellent running, Great condition Acura. Engine runs perfect with no errors. (the pic with check engine light was just a misfire. This was before i changed the spark plugs and had it erased) It has New Spark plugs (50 miles) New Crank Sensor. All new Belts (200 miles) Alternator newer, All new coolant, just flushed it. The tranny shifts perfect and is as smooth as the motor. Changed Tranny fluid. I just changed the Temp sensor and the thermostat, put in a 165 Degree one. The tires are great. The fronts should be changed with the backs though. The back tires are almost new, where as the front ones have 70% tread left. Everything on the car is in excellent running order. I'm a mechanic in Grad school. This is how i get through school. I find cars, fix them and drive them, to make sure everything's all tuned up and good, (and then try and sell them for a few bucks) This car now has over $2400 into it. I bought it for 1400, then put 1000 into it. (including parts, Crank sensor, Crank pulley, Curt hitch, and a new hood (its in Wisconsin, we can figure that out later) The car does have some minor rust spots on it. Including the little spots in the rear wells, the hood and right below the license plate on the trunk. Its small. I was going to fix it, that's why I bought the hood. I took it home to work on it. Its included, $300 value. I kind of got carried away, so now my so-called-flip has turned into a flop. I just changed the fluids, (didn't flush it) and added expensive Valvoline fluid to the tranny, with high mileage additive. I just changed the oil and oil filter with Amsoil. Its the most expensive and the best synthetic oil you can buy. Its 11 bucks a quart. I have 100 miles on the oil and you don't have to change it for 25,000 miles or 12 months. The brakes are excellent, they were just gone through. The ABS light is on unfortunately, and it needs a sensor. (took it in, thats what they said. I might be a Mechanic, but ABS stuff is impossible without the right equipment to troubleshoot) Its clicking too. (the drivers side) This is a very common Honda problem. Its the steering knuckle. Its not a problem for driving, its just I just haven't gotten time to change it. This car runs and drives like a Mercedes Benz. No joke, its got the double wishbone suspension; same technology as most race cars. The interior is very nice, give it a 8.5/10. The exterior is all original. Again it has a few scuffs and scratches on the front and rear bumpers. I just fixed and installed all new Expensive halogen lights and fog lights in the front. I give the exterior a 7/10 with a few small spots on the hood and the rear wheel wells. The exhaust is very nice and quiet. All the sensors are fine with no codes. Again this car is a great family car. Very safe and was one of the leading award winning cars in the 90's. I'd keep it, but I'm just a student trying to get by...just one more semester left. (omg i'm in debt) Sorry for the info, I don't like surprises for people and the car is what it is. A very nice family sedan, with 190,000 miles. Yes, that might seem like a lot to some, but this car can easily go another 60,000 if taken care of. Look on Kelly's Blue Book. The car retails for about $2300. Its a well built, well engineered Japanese car. Its a high-end Honda. (in Japan they call it a Honda Legend) I'm a military mechanic by trade. I was in the Air Force and stationed all over the country. I've gone through this car in hopes to flip it. But where I'm at its just impossible to sell cars. In Chicago, there are literary hundreds of great cars for under 2000. I'm now in Vernon Hills/Mundelien area studying for the Priesthood. I was asking $1900 on Craigs-list. Its now today on Ebay...we'll see what happens. My loss is your gain. Peace |

Acura recalls 2013-2014 ILX, ILX Hybrid over fire-prone headlamps
Wed, 09 Jul 2014The Acura ILX just can't seem to catch a break. The Japanese automaker recently decided that the ILX Hybrid would no longer be offered in the US for the 2015 model year. Now, a possibility for fires has also cropped up in the compact luxury sedan. Acura has announced a recall of 14,078 examples from the 2013 and 2014 model years because the headlights could overheat and ignite the car. The company also issued a stop-sale for examples still at dealers until they can be repaired.
The campaign covers ILX and ILX Hybrid models with halogen projector headlights from specific build dates. The problem is that the headlights aren't cooled sufficiently when the cars aren't moving. After several hours of sitting with them on, it's possible for the lights to build up so much heat that they melt and potentially cause a fire.
To Acura's knowledge, there was only one case of an ILX actually catching fire due to this problem, though. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration defect notice, a car was idling at a dealer for about two hours when the model went up in flames. The automaker brought the vehicle in for a detailed investigation to find what caused the blaze.
2017 Acura NSX production launches in April
Fri, Mar 18 2016After a decade of waiting and a few false starts, the new Acura NSX will finally start rolling out of its Marysville, OH, factory in late April. Customer deliveries won't be too far behind. We can't wait to hear whether buyers find the supercar as fast and comfortable as we did during the First Drive. Trial production is already underway at the NSX's bespoke factory called the Performance Manufacturing Center. The plant is specifically for production of low-volume vehicles with cutting-edge tech. The site employs 100 people to construct, paint, and check the quality of the new supercar, and they need 14 hours to build each one. Robots take care of some of the more intricate tasks like MIG welding the space frame. View 6 Photos It also takes workers six hours to build each NSX's 3.5-liter V6 by hand at the nearby engine plant in Anna, OH. They machine balance every one and run the powerplant through a 150-mile break-in procedure. While the supercar isn't at dealers yet, you can already build your own 2017 NSX online. Prices start at $157,800 (after $1,800 for destination), but the first examples only come with carbon-ceramic brakes, which add at least $9,900 to the price. When Autoblog editors optioned them out, the cheapest we managed was $172,700.
