You are
looking at my 1990 Honda CRX SI Hatchback, Red color, that I acquired in the
fall of 2007. It had 75K miles when I bought it and now has 172K. It has never
been in an accident. The engine runs strong and smooth. The car gets excellent
gas mileage around 36-38 mpg average. The car has VIN # JHMED9367LS010434. This car
will be sold as is and I will describe as accurately as possible all known
issues or concerns. The winning bidder is responsible for pickup, shipping, or
delivery of the car. This has
been a very reliable, fuel efficient, and zippy car to drive around in. It does
not have A/C but has a sun roof and plenty of ventilation. A/C was never initially
installed but could be installed by a competent mechanic. This car has been used
for my work commute car and has mostly highway miles. I am only selling because I’ve decided to
invest in a new car. There are no
engine or car issues other than what is described below. Car Maintenance

There
is surface rust around the wheel wells and on top to the sun roof. I did apply
some JB Weld on top of the sun roof and around the wheel wells, and covered
with red paint to prevent the rust from spreading any further. You can see the
bubbly surface on the sunroof. Any reputable body shop could easily fix these
areas. -
The
oil pan drain hole threads are slighting stripped so I have had to apply JB
weld around the oil pan bolt to prevent a small leak following each oil change.
The JB weld can be easily chipped away for removal of the pan plug and oil
change. -
The
driver seat cloth is ripped on the upper left side. I remedied this by applying
black duct tape. Of course car seat covers would be better, or a seamstress
could repair. -
The
rear windshield washer sprayer does not work. -
On
occasion when shifting into 2nd gear to quickly, there is some
slight grinding heard. I had discovered this when I 1st purchased
the car. A reputed mechanic told me this would never get any worse, and to this
day it hasn’t. If you ease into 2nd gear gently, this will not
occur. -
There
is a slight dent in right rear panel (see pic). -
On
hot days when the car is sitting too long, the accelerator (gas pedal) needs to
be depressed for 30 seconds, and then the engine can be started. I think this
may be a sensor issue? Otherwise, the engine always starts smoothly. -
There
is a slight scratch in the front windshield driver side. (see pic) -
There
is a small cut / rip in the vinyl on the driver’s door side. (see pic) -
The
Hood opening latch inside the car has to be held in open position so that the
front hood can be popped open. I accomplish this by putting a wrench or 12”
piece of wood to hold the latch in open position. -
The CRX SI original owner’s manual
also comes with the car. The winning bidder is responsible for pickup or
shipping. |

2017 Tokyo Motor Show | Mega Gallery
Wed, Oct 25 2017The 2017 Tokyo Motor Show has been a big and busy one. It's also had machinery ranging from beautiful to bizarre. But there's been something for everyone. Companies such as Honda and Subaru brought performance oriented vehicles, Toyota showcased a wide array of funky and practical concepts, and Yamaha even broke away from motorcycles to do another car concept. You can check all of these vehicles out, and more in the galleries below. 2018 Honda Gold Wing: View 5 Photos Honda Neo Sports Cafe Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Riding Assist-e Concept: View 7 Photos Honda Sports EV Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Super Cub: View 3 Photos Isuzu FD-SI and Elf EV: View 9 Photos Lexus LS+ Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Kai Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Vision Coupe Concept: View 15 Photos Mitsubishi e-Evolution Concept: View 8 Photos Nissan IMx Concept: View 29 Photos Nissan Leaf Nismo Concept: View 8 Photos Subaru Viziv Performance Concept: View 12 Photos Toyota Century and Crown: View 7 Photos Toyota Concept-i Series: View 16 Photos Toyota GR HV SPORTS Concept: View 6 Photos Toyota Tj Cruiser: View 12 Photos Yamaha Concepts (Cross Hub, MOTOROiD, MWC-4, Motobot): View 5 Photos Related Video: Tokyo Motor Show Honda Isuzu Lexus Mazda Mitsubishi Nissan Subaru Toyota
Honda renews trademark for Acura CDX compact crossover
Wed, Jan 31 2018Honda recently renewed its U.S. trademark for the name "CDX," which the Japanese carmaker first applied for in 2015. Back then, observers expected the name to apply to an Acura version of the Honda HR-V, and they were right — but no one expected the CDX would go on sale only in China, in 2016. For the past two years, the U.S. auto media has speculated on whether the CDX will ever make it here. "(We) have our R&D guys looking into the possibility," group VP of Acura U.S. Jon Ikeda told Wards Auto last April about the CDX. However, he went on to note that it's not as simple as just shipping it over due to regulation differences between China and the United States. The trademark application doesn't mean a green light, but it shows Honda's at least leaving the door open to the prospect. The Chinese-market CDX is a Honda HR-V after a wardrobe change. The only engine option is the 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the Civic, CR-V, and Accord, with 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet (our HR-V uses a 1.8-liter four-cylinder with 141 hp and 127 lb-ft). The only transmission offered is an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Drivetrains can be had in front- or all-wheel drive. We wonder how much longer Honda can sit on the sidelines. The CDX doubled Acura's sales in China in one year. Acura sells more crossovers than sedans in the United States, and in the past two years that the CDX has been on sale in China, the compact crossover segment here has got more crowded and more popular. The Cadillac XT4 is imminent, and we could see the new Lexus UX compact crossover at the Geneva Motor Show. Really, an American-market Acura CDX can't come soon enough.

Honda adopts English as its official language in meetings worldwide
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Japanese was clearly the language of operation while we visited Honda's global headquarters in Tokyo last week, as well as its newest factory and principal test track. Chief executive Takanobu Ito (pictured above) spoke to us through an interpreter. But according to the latest reports, the Japanese language is being phased out at Honda in favor of English.
This according to Bloomberg, which points out that tire manufacturer Bridgestone and rival automaker Nissan have implemented similar measures, as have Japanese retail giants Fast Retailing Co. and Rakuten Inc. Honda's shift from Japanese to English comes as part of a shift in focus from central decision-making to a more regional model, but while English has clearly emerged as the international language of business, it's no coincidence that it's also the dominant language here in America. Bloomberg points out that over the 12-month period that ended this past March, North America accounted for a massive 47 percent of Honda's revenues worldwide.
