1999 Honda Civic Ex Coupe 2-door 1.6l on 2040-cars
Harleysville, Pennsylvania, United States

For sale my 1999 civic EX. I have owned the car for 5 years and have never had any major issues with it.
I just put a timing belt on it as well as a water pump 10,000 miles ago. New brakes front and back within the last year. Everything works on the car: power steering, power locks, power windows, sun roof, CD player, cruise etc. AC I haven't used in several months but it did work last time I used it although the compressor belt squealed a bit and needs to be tightened. Never had to recharge it in the 5 years I owned the car. I've done all my own work to this car so far. The transmission shifts well, and has shifted the same way it does now since I bought the car. I change that fluid every 30k. The motor runs great, no issues there either. The shifter is a little stiff sometimes (probably the coffee I spilled on it). Car gets good gas mileage. New battery. There are some issues to speak of, and here's the story on that. I recently moved from NJ to PA and put the car into inspection. The front end and brakes all checked out (although I do feel some pulsing in them, probably a warped rotor). They did an alignment. Because the windshield has a circle blemish from a stone hitting it, as well as a long crack, they wanted to replace it. The rear right tire also is out of alighment, and they wanted to replace some bushings to get it right. It does pull to the right because of that. Last, where the muffler mates up with the B pipe, there is an exhuast leak and really it needs to be welded, patched or replaced to pass (otherwise I would just leave it). You can hear it, its noticeable but not super loud. Back before I moved out to PA I had a garage and I would just do this myself in an afternoon, but now I live at an apartment complex and you can't even open your hood without somebody calling the office, so I haven't touched anything. I commute 200 miles a day, so this car was my answer to banging out those miles on a car I figured wasn't going to suffer much in value by putting a bunch more miles on it. Because the inspection is going to cause me to spend money on the car, I decided to sell it. I'm reasonably confident it would pass NJ inspection without much trouble. Summary: Everything works. Runs great, shifts well. Has been well maintained. Body is ok, has dents. Missing a couple of hubcovers. looks ok in a parkinglot. Interior pretty good, seats are almost perfect, floor has some stains. Does need some work: Needs rear alignment parts (bushings on trailing arm I'm told). Has exhaust leak at muffler to b pipe area (which by the way I made a shade tree fix to in a friend's driveway which will hold out for probably as long as you need it to). Windshield is cracked and blemished. One other thing, the previous owner had (a rather annoying) alarm system that I removed from the car. For whatever reason, any time you open the door to the car it makes the "you left your keys in the ignition" chime. Could probably figure out why, I never bothered. If I were the next guy to own this car and I had to pass PA inspection, I'd get a junkyard windshield, patch the B pipe and repair the rear alignment myself. If other state inspection, I'd probably forget about everything but the alignment and just drive it. This car has a lot of life left in it. Feel free to ask any questions. |

Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny
Sat, Oct 10 2015The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.

Acura to roll out NSX Prototype for Mid-Ohio IndyCar race
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Acura will tease us yet again with its next-gen NSX when it makes an appearance at Mid-Ohio Raceway before the circuit's IndyCar race early next month. To be fair, the car's in-motion debut won't take the form of a production model - that's still a ways off - the vehicle will be a prototype. It'll be sporting custom graphics and an eye-catching paint (wrap?) job to draw the attention of the spectators, but really, we just want to hear this thing rounding the legendary road course at full chat.
The NSX prototype doesn't look to be much different from the various showcars we've seen over the last couple of years, with the same mid-engined, hybrid V6 power and all-wheel drive all present and accounted for.
The display will take place before the Honda Indy 200 IndyCar Series on August 4. The race itself starts at 3:00 pm and will be shown on NBC Sports Network.
Honda S660 set for Yokkaichi production next year
Tue, 06 May 2014Roadsters, you might argue, are best when they're small and nimble. If you're thinking of the Mazda MX-5 Miata, you're on the right track, but there have been even smaller ones: pint-sized, three-cylinder roadsters like the Daihatsu Copen, Suzuki Cappuccino and Smart Roadster. But the most iconic and enduring of them was surely the Honda Beat.
Designed by Pininfarina, the Beat was - not unlike the F40 was for Enzo Ferrari - the last car approved for production by company founder Soichiro Honda. It complied with Japan's strict Kei car regulations and packed a tiny, naturally aspirated 656 cc that produced just 63 horsepower. The cult classic ended production in 1996, but six months ago Honda hinted at a revival with the presentation of the S660 concept at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. Now it seems Honda - or Yachiyo, we should say - is gearing up to put it into production at the same factory that produced the Beat two decades ago.
That plant is the Yokkaichi factory, a facility owned by Yachiyo Industry Co., Ltd. that builds small cars on contract for Honda. It was slated for a major expansion a few years ago until Honda shifted some of its small car production to its own plant in Suzuka, but continues to build the N series of boxy, upright hatchbacks, as well as small commercial vehicles like the Life and Vamos lines. The reintroduction of a small roadster line to the factory's output sometime in 2015 will undoubtedly be a cause for celebration in Yokkaichi. For our part we can only hope that American Honda CEO Tetsuo Iwamura gets his way and manages to bring the S660 to the US in the near future.
