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
since I’ve owned: -
Oil
changes with synthetic oil and High efficiency oil filter every 6K miles. -

New

New
battery at 163K miles. -
New
alternator and belt at 134K miles. The car does have some flaws: -
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. |

2016 Honda HR-V: The first three months with our jack of all trades
Tue, Jan 5 2016We only had the long-term 2016 Honda HR-V in our fleet for one week, and for me, the do-anything crossover was immediately useful. Its honeymoon phase coincided with a number of long-haul drives, plus I had to move. This ambitious start is why we're a quarter of the way through our long-term test, and the HR-V already has over 6,000 miles on the odometer. In classic suburban chariot style, the HR-V is a jack of all trades. And when it comes to road trips, the HR-V is just as enjoyable while slogging up flat interstates as it is along beautiful country roads. I've driven it in all types of weather, packed it with people, and filled it with cargo. I've spent more time in our long-term Honda than pretty much any car that came before it. Here's what I've learned. Long Hauls I've driven the HR-V from my home in Detroit to my sister's place in Traverse City, MI – a 500-mile round trip – four times. On one occasion, an early winter blast hit northern Michigan on my way to the cute, beachside tourist town. From intense fog and rain to sunshine to a sudden snow squall, I had every one of the elements thrown directly at me over the course of one drive. I find a lot of the HR-V's onboard safety technology distracting, and I worry that drivers can become too reliant on these features. Blind spot alerts and cameras are designed to make us safer, yes, but they're no replacement for an attentive, engaged driver. For instance, in the rain and sleet, the nifty Honda Lane Watch camera displayed only gray blobs. Ditto on the back-up camera, meaning that while the technology technically functioned as advertised, the weather rendered it useless. The HR-V has a solid suite of safety tech, but you don't have to rely on the cameras and bells and whistles. The driver's side mirror has an extended-view distortion to the glass. Visibility is great. The HR-V was a champ in the gross weather, and I was thankful for our mid-level EX trim's all-wheel drive. And this was even before we fitted the HR-V with a set of Michelin X-Ice 215/55R17 winter tires – expect to hear about those when we actually get some more snow here in Detroit. Optioning all-wheel drive means you're stuck with the continuously variable transmission (a manual is available with front-drive), which isn't great, but it smoothly delivers the engine's 141 horsepower and 127 pound-feet of torque. Editor Alex Kierstein agreed, writing in our logbook, "Overall, I think the CVT isn't great ...
2016 Honda Pilot is brand's first non-hybrid with stop-start
Sat, Feb 14 2015Honda has gotten rid of the boxy styling of the outgoing Pilot for a more aerodynamic look that mimics its smaller sibling, the popular CR-V. The 2016 Honda Pilot – which goes on sale this summer – has a larger, eight-inch display screen, an improved navigation system and up to five USB ports to power the family's devices. The new Pilot was introduced at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show this week. New amenities include an optional heated steering wheel and heated second-row seats. Under the hood is a new 3.5-liter, direct injected V-6 engine with start-stop technology – Honda calls it " Idle Stop technology" – to save on fuel. Buyers can choose one of two new transmissions, a six-speed or a nine-speed, and front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive configurations. Green Car Congress notes that this is the first time Honda has put stop-start technology into a non-hybrid vehicle. Fuel economy wasn't announced, but increased use of lighter materials has dropped 300 pounds of weight, so the new Pilot should beat the old model's 25 mpg on the highway. New safety features include LED high beams that automatically dim for oncoming traffic and Honda's first road departure mitigation system - borrowed from Acura - which monitors the vehicle's road position and can correct the steering or brake if it senses an imminent collision.
