Update:  I thought I covered all the bases but apparently I missed some rules I assumed someone shopping for a car on eBay would already know. If your spouse is uneasy with you purchasing a vehicle on eBay that is halfway across the country please get permission before bidding. I believe I have done a very thorough job describing and displaying this beautiful gem of a Crx Si for auction. If you have concern about the car please address them before bidding. You will receive the title and a spare key in the mail if you are not local, after payment is received. If you want it overnighted it will probably cost 30-40 bucks, that will be covered by the new owner. The Crx in the pictures below is not a magazine article or brochure I copied and pasted, it really is in great condition! Like I said I cannot believe I need to add these statements but I really don't want to relist a fourth time or it will probably just go into storage until Spring. Hopefully this third time is a charm and the crx high bidder follows through. My auction received a ton of traffic, interests, and emails but after some issues the sale did not go through with the winning bidder. Please understand that no matter what the bidding goes up to, as a buyer YOU are responsible for shipping if you are out of state. The previous winning bidder expected the shipping to be covered. Also the vehicle will not be released under any circumstances until payment is received in full. Not half payment, or a deposit, or whatever. I assumed this was common knowledge but after the previous experience I'm adding this at the beginning. I hope this time around the winning bidder is an enthusiast of these cars and understands bidding here is a binding contract. Thanks and good luck! I read listings all the time saying they are selling something rare or as a survivor and the pictures don't match the description. This 1990 Honda CRX Si is a gorgeous gorgeous car. Is it rare? In this condition and in its 99% original state being this nice, I think so. It has been meticulously well taken care of by the same female owner since 1993 when the current title was issued. It is a pleasure to drive. This CRX Si runs, drives, looks, smells, and feels like much less than the 140 something highway miles its been driven. Check the car fax all the maintenance has been kept up. Timing belt included and this is ready to go another 150k miles. The tires are 195-60-14 dunlops in fair condition. Exhaust is quiet and at some point the chrome si twin tips corroded and they were replaced. Looks very good and as close to oem as I've seen. Remainder of the exhaust components appear original and oem without leaks. Engine runs perfect like a well kept Honda does. Axles are quiet. Interior is amazing. No tears in the fabrics on the seats. Drivers side shows and feels some wear but the pictures show that well. No fading of any kind. Seat si colors are still vivid like when they were sold in 1990. Air conditioning blows ice cold. Temperature controls are not broken or cracked. The radio has been upgraded to an Alpine cda 9820xm. The antenna is missing but cheap to replace. The exterior shows some wear, chips and scratches have been touched up and the paint shines well. Minimal very beginnings of rust blisters are starting to show on the moon roof but its hard to see even in a high resolution picture. Minor miscellaneous parking lot dings but very few. Worst is on the passenger side door edge and in some pictures you can see it. Sun roof works perfectly. This CRX was professionally photographed so you can see in a few pictures there was some effects added, for example cars driving by. Pictures were taken August 16, 2013 two days before this auction begins. The engine bay really is that gorgeous. The interior really is that clean. And the outside, paint, wheels, body lines, and all exterior components really do look as good as the pictures show. Its not flawless, but it is one of the nicest I've seen in a while without low low miles. The winning bidder could pick it up and take it to a local car show immediately. During the picture taking I realized the passenger side tail light lens was replaced at some point. There's an accident reported in 2007, I'm guessing they are related. I can find no other evidence of an accident and all the panels are original on the body. The car drives smooth and straight. If the tail light lens is a bother to you I will include the correct one installed upon pick up. Lastly it has older window tint peeling on some edges. Not hideous, not perfect though. There is no visible body rust beyond the minor moon roof blisters and maybe a tiny blister or two starting in the rear wheel wells. Miscellaneous sap damage here and there that hardened over the years has been touched up. it could probably be wet sanded and buffed to be improved but all in all this CRX is beautiful. It's clean. I hope a CRX lover wins the auction and continues caring for it just like its previous owner. I would keep it but after years of searching I purchased a Green Tahitian Pearl CRX si in similar condition. If its being purchased as a good solid driving car, it'll last you a long long time if its kept up. Feel free to email with any questions. It is unlikely I will end the auction early with a buy it now price but it is listed locally so you never know. Bid to win.


On Sep-20-13 at 20:37:42 PDT, seller added the following information:

I've had several interested buyers ask about the tail light. The light has now been replaced with the correct one, and I took pictures of the tail light panel. It all looked good and straight. If you'd like to see pictures please send me a message and include a number or email to send pictures to. Thanks,

Honda Vezel leaked in Mugen trim

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Just last month at the Tokyo Motor Show, Honda revealed its new Vezel crossover, a production version of the Urban SUV concept that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show. According to new reports, the model already has a three-month waiting list in Japan alone. But that doesn't mean Honda's tuning division, Mugen, is waiting around to spruce it up.
Pictured here is the Mugen-tuned version of the Vezel leaked from a sales brochure in Japan. While there's not much information to go on, Mugen's take on the Vezel appears to be wearing a custom aero kit, with more pronounced lower bumpers and side sills, a more Acura-like grille treatment and different wheels.
Whether we'll ever get a Mugen package like this when the Fit-based CUV arrives in North America remains to be seen, but we've historically gotten very few of these tuned-up Hondas. In fact, we're still not even sure what the tiny crossover will be called when it arrives here, but something tells us it won't arrive carrying the Vezel moniker.

Honda concept dials M for minivan [w/video]

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Yes, it looks a bit, uh, toothy, but what you see here is a concept that previews a brand new small MPV specifically designed for the Chinese market. Called the Concept M, the swoopy Honda was designed in Japan and the automaker is currently aiming to launch a production version in China sometime in 2014.
Honda hasn't released many details about its small van concept, simply saying that it "offers the attributes of a passenger car while adding new value through the realization of a comfortable and spacious cabin space made possible by Honda's packaging technologies, and the fun of driving." Doesn't sound too bad to us.
Have a glance at the Concept M in the gallery above (full disclosure: we don't have live shots of this one), and take a look below for the official press blast direct from the MPV's Shanghai debut, as well as a promotional video showing the new concept from all angles. Oh, and be sure to turn your volume down before pushing the play button.

Sales incentive growth clustered around brands with few CUVs, trucks

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

While it's arguably been around the longest, the dominance of the four-door sedan has been under threat for many years. As a further sign of the hurtin' that SUVs and crossovers have put on today's four-doors, a new report from Automotive News points to the increasing use of incentives by brands reliant on cars and light on CUVs and pickups.
Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and Kia have all been stung by double-digit increases in their incentives-to-transaction price ratio, according to AN, which cites data from TrueCar. Honda's ratio is up 14 percent, while Toyota, VW and Kia are up 18, 15 and 19 percent, respectively.
"Most of the incentive growth we have seen is in product segments with low demand - midsized or large sedans," TrueCar CEO John Krafcik told AN. "As this trend goes on, the brands with three-sedan strategies are going to be in worse shape on incentive spending than the crossover brands."
