PLEASE SEE EBAY ITEM # 151356738238 FOR REFERENCE BEFORE BIDDING!
This sale is from a previous eBay transaction ( See eBay item #151356738238 ) I was involved in where the seller wasn't upfront with the REAL condition of the car. I won the auction and flew out to pick up the car with the understanding that the car was "HIGHWAY READY" and that the seller had performed a Jiffy Lube inspection (at my requested expense) to prepare it for the long trip back to Utah. The seller arrived with the vehicle on a trailer and after unloading the car, I exchanged keys for payment, and prepared to leave, I noticed a crack along the entire windshield that wasn't disclosed in the eBay auction as well as a baseball sized hole in the driver seat (back part right next to the door). THE FIRST FOUR PHOTOS THAT YOU SEE ARE THE PHOTOS OF THE CAR THAT THE PREVIOUS SELLER "TONYKAW7R" DISPLAYED IN HIS AD. ALL REMAINING PHOTOS ARE ONES THAT I TOOK UPON CLOSER INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE THE NEXT MORNING. Despite these things, I began to drive home to Utah from Memphis, Tennessee. After 100 miles, the check engine light came on. I stopped for gas and checked the oil. There was NO OIL on the dipstick. This tells me that he didn't change the oil out at all. I found immaculate records of oil changes, and other services that the original owner had kept in the glove box. It appears that she did a great job maintaining the vehicle. I had an oil change done, and the service man agreed that no oil change had been done recently and that it was due for one. I proceeded on my way, and then noticed that the car would shift into 5th gear, but the shifter would pop out from time to time. This kept happening until finally it wouldn't go into 5th gear at all! I stopped by a mechanics shop and they said it would be a "repair" fix involving the linkage of the car, tightening a bolt, etc. I got a second opinion, and they also agreed. I then noticed that reverse didn't work either. I didn't get a quote for that repair since I was desperately trying to talk to the seller about what might be wrong and how we could remedy the situation. Sadly, the seller discontinued contact with me and I was stranded in Arkansas without a way to get back home. I am asking for a "BUY IT NOW" price to compensate me for the money I had already sent the seller that I will probably never be able to recover. Ebay states that since the car is over 10 years old it doesn't qualify for the "Buyer's Guarantee" that they offer, and they encouraged me to contact authorities to get my money back from the seller. I will give you a list of things I noticed while having the car checked out. 1. The car shifts GREAT from 1st to 4th! Super smooth. 2. Drink console cover is broken off, but does fit nicely in the little slit next to it. 3. Almost BRAND NEW TIRES!!! 4. A/C is super cold and works great! 5. The rear passenger window rolls slowly - possibly the motor going out. 6. Front bumper doesn't fit exactly on.. Maybe a small accident? 7. The rear passenger door can't be opened from the outside. 8. No CD player in the car - previous seller said there was one... 9. Passenger front door can't be unlocked with key. DOES WORK WITH THE POWER LOCKS THOUGH. 10. Overhead dome light isn't attached firmly and lights don't work. 11. Dingy center console cover. 12. Struts need to be replaced. PLEASE CONTACT ME REGARDING ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT THIS CAR BY TEXTING ME AT 801-288-2399 BEFORE BIDDING! |

Honda, Audi sweep European tin-top championships
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Despite his win at the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend, Sebastian Vettel still has another race or two to go before he can claim his fourth consecutive World Championship in Formula 1. Back in Europe, however, this weekend saw several championship titles decided in a variety of tin-top racing series.
In the British Touring Car Championship, Gordon Shedden won the final round at Brands Hatch this weekend, but that wasn't enough to defend his title. Instead, the ultimate glory went to Andrew Jordan, also driving a Honda Civic, coming in ninth place to take a seven-point victory over Shedden in the final standings. Little wonder then that Honda took the constructors' championship and the Honda Yuasa Racing team took the teams' title. Four-time BTCC champion and Fifth Gear co-host Jason Plato, now driving for MG, landed third in the standings.
While Honda dominated the British championship, it was Audi that reigned supreme in mainland Europe. In the Superstars International Series - Italy's touring-car championship - Gianni Morbidelli drove the Audi RS5 to his fifth title, finishing the season's final race in a calculated third place behind the BMW racecars of Giovanni Berton and Max Mugelli. It's the second consecutive win for the RS5 in the Superstars series (Johan Kristoffersson won the title last year), and the second this year following Mike Rockenfeller's title in the RS5 DTM.
Check out Honda's sweet stop-motion 'Power of Dreams' ad
Thu, Sep 24 2015Television advertising doesn't just have to be the necessary evil that pays for the shows that you want to watch, and Honda is absolutely proving that with a new two-minute commercial titled Paper. Using stop-motion animation and a heap of illustrated cutouts, the spot showcases what the Power of Dreams motto really means. It runs through highlights like the success in racing, automotive development, Asimo, the HondaJet, and even lawnmowers. The result of all that hard work is spellbinding. The entire two-minute spot already aired during a few NFL games, and doing that was a serious investment. According to Ad Age, during the time that the ad ran the estimated cost per 30 seconds was $300,887. Honda is also prepping a minute-long version for TV, but you can enjoy the whole thing right now in the video, above. HONDA BRINGS 'THE POWER OF DREAMS' TO LIFE WITH TWO-MINUTE COMMERCIAL CREATED BY STOP-MOTION ARTIST AND INFLUENCER PES Elaborate Paper-Flipping Technique Artfully Tells the History of Honda Honda Brand Marketing Tone — Simple, Clever and Emotional — Will Carry Through Across Upcoming Advertising to Help Build a Long-Term Emotional Connection with Consumers Sep 21, 2015 - TORRANCE, Calif. -- Capitalizing on Honda's established, strong brand identity and its core belief in "The Power of Dreams," the company is launching a two-minute commercial, "Paper," during CBS Sunday NFL on Sunday, Sept. 20. After months in the making, thousands of hand-drawn and -colored illustrations from multiple artists provide the platform for an intricate paper-flipping journey to beautifully show Honda's history and range of mobility products. "The goal is for the marketing itself to become a demonstration of Honda thinking and all the people that touch our wide range of products along the way," said Tom Peyton, Assistant Vice President of Marketing for American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "This commercial stands for the courage and conviction to imagine and make dreams a reality and speaks to Honda's innovative nature and respect for personal achievement and contributions." "The Power of Dreams" philosophy speaks to Honda's belief that drives the company's R&D and diverse array of advanced-technology products, and to the determination to bring them to market. This rejuvenated approach to overall brand marketing is the sum of Honda's best thinking and could only come from the company's years of design and innovation.
Minivan market not what it used to be, but margins make up for it
Thu, 05 Jun 2014
Residual values for last year's minivans are higher than they were in 2000.
Much like the station wagon was the shuttle of Baby Boomer generation, the minivan has been the primary means of transport for Generations X and Y. Just as the boomers abandoned the Country Squire, though, those kids that were toted around in Grand Caravans and Windstars are adults, and they certainly don't want to be seen in the cars their parents drove.
