Here's the barn find you've been looking for! Well, not exactly, but really better. I bought this car not long ago locally from the 2nd owner who knew the original local owner and had to buy it off of him b/c he knew how well he took care of it. They'd been driving it locally so it's been staying in service but getting low miles. Has only 169k!(I'm still driving so it will move up some). All stock except for recent radio change and I have all of that to go with the car(original equipment was hardly putting out sound anymore). Bought new radio with remote and all new speakers. Interior is in great condition. It's been recently repainted because it was fading. Clean history. It's very hard to find a 1989 car that has not been in an accident, but it's been only adult driven it's whole life. Original engine blew head gasket and then ran hot so it's been replaced with same level engine. Documentation on nearly everything that's been done to this thing as far as maintenance and repairs going back to the day it left the dealer's lot. Only 4 adults have ever driven this car, and it has not been dogged out. You can tell the previous owners really cared for the car. All interior trim there, console in good condition!! Most everything works, even the sunroof and a/c!!! Over $4000 has been spent on this car over the last year or so just keeping it in top shape. New CV axles, clutch, radiator, engine (have most of that paperwork too), that was gone through before it went in, etc etc. This car has been gone through, I could go on and on. You won't believe the detail previous owners left. Paperwork. Books. This is one of the very few si's left in the US in this type of condition. It's not perfect, but it's among the best you'll see that hasn't been messed with.
I'm having a hard time choosing to sell it b/c I know sooner or later I'll kick myself for ever letting this one go. Just running out of room for vehicles, something's got to go and I have children...smallest car should probably go. Do some checking and you'll see these cars in good condition normally go for $4-5-6-7-8K depending on various factors. This car isn't collectible caliber I don't guess (I'm not a car collector or know but about that) but I've seen hundreds to several thousand in person or online and this one is in a condition that I've hardly seen in the last few years. But please don't go by my judgement, as I know everyone has different standards. Just look at the pics and judge yourself. The car's been in western NC it's entire life until the last short while that I've had it. Other than those two rust areas, the underside of the car has virtually no rust at all! Not in the rocker panels either!

Best cars for snow and ice in 2023 and 2024
Tue, Jan 23 2024What's the best car for snow? The real answer is "the one with winter tires." What do we mean by that? You could have the finest, most advanced all-wheel-drive system or four-wheel drive in the world, but if you're running all-seasons (the spork of tires), your fancy four-wheeler won't matter much. The odds are, any vehicle on the road running good winter tires will probably perform adequately in slippery, slushy and/or snowy road conditions. (Here's a more complete explanation of why winter tires are totally worth it). In other words, you don't really need any of the cars on this list. With a set of winter tires, countless others will do the job, and even these will be at their best with proper rubber. You can find a variety of winter tires for your car here at Tire Rack. Keep in mind that you will need a full set of four snow tires for safety and performance, no matter what you're driving. The days of your dad putting just two snows on the family truckster to get it moving in a straight line are long gone. Don't get us wrong, getting a car that performs well in snow and ice is still a worthy criteria for car buyers. According to the U.S. Transportation Department, 70% of Americans live in places that get snow and ice. And much of the country has been blasted with arctic air for much of the new year. So let's look at the cars. First, we're highlighting choices for a variety of buyers and price points. Second, we're not just considering snow; we're considering general wintery conditions people will experience driving to work or school. As such, these are all choices with advanced all-wheel-drive systems, usually with "torque-vectoring" systems that not only automatically shunt power front and back, but side to side between the rear axles. Most have extra ground clearance for getting through deep snow, and we prefer those vehicles with more responsive steering, throttles and transmissions that provide a greater sense of vehicle control in slippery conditions. Acura RDX Read our Acura RDX Review Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system was one of the first to offer torque-vectoring, and besides often being touted for its ability to greatly enhanced dry-road handling, its benefits in the slick stuff can be profound. It's actually surprising that Acura hasn't leaned into this capability further by offering more rugged versions of its vehicles.
Honda says Accord is America's best-selling car among actual consumers
Fri, 21 Feb 2014The latest round of new vehicle registration data has been good for Honda - three of the Japanese brand's models are retail sales leaders and the Accord was the most registered car built in America in 2013, according to the data compiled by Polk. In fact, 360,089 units of the family sedan were purchased by individual consumers last year, an increase of 12.2 percent.
There was also good news from the Civic and CR-V camps, as those two models topped their respective segments in terms of retail (non-fleet) sales, with each notching over 300,000 registrations. Combined with the Accord, this trio of Hondas accounted for a whopping 1.11 million retail sales last year.
Honda spokesperson Sage Marie reflected on Polk's findings, telling Autoblog:
2012 Honda NC700X
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Honda Builds The Crossover Of Bikes
Here in the land of Harleys and highways that stretch to infinity, Americans don't care much for sensible motorcycles. Unlike the majority of global bike buyers, North Americans tend to choose escape over utility, performance over practicality - that's simply how it's been done in the land of the free, at least until a funny thing happened on the way to the global recession.
As bank balances thinned and fuel prices crept skyward, sales of puffed up sportbikes and cartoonishly endowed cruisers plummeted. Americans rediscovered that motorcycles could be used for tasks like workaday commutes and trips to the grocery store, not just for riding into a Marlboro Man-approved sunset, fringe in tow. As consumers matured, manufacturers slowly responded with bikes better suited for purposeful priorities.
