 You are bidding on a 2006 Honda Civic 4-door sedan EX in very good condition and with with low miles.  I'm the original owner, and this is my 4th Honda Civic since 1977.  Whether you buy my car or someone else's, I recommend Honda Civics highly, and I personally guarantee you will be very satisfied with this one---if not, feel free to walk away, no harm, no foul.  It's a fantastic car with no known defects. I do not smoke, allow pets, or eat in my car, so the inside is like new without any odd smells.  Although the paint is not perfect, it's been garage-kept and still shines up nicely.  All maintenance is up-to-date (records available), and the battery is brand new.  The car handles well, is fun to drive, and the seats are really comfortable for long trips.  There is no hump in the back floor, a nice feature for times when you need to transport 5 people. I normally drive the car to maximize fuel economy (folks call that 'hyper-miling' because the goal is to get better-than-EPA estimated mileage), and as a result, the car has not been abused in any way.  I've been averaging about 34 miles per gallon of mostly suburban driving.  Driving on the highway even at 70+ MPH, the car gets about 37 miles per gallon thanks to it's aerodynamic body.  If your view of performance differs from mine, you'll probably appreciate the 130 horse-power engine, 5-speed manual transmission, excellent suspension, moon-roof, and alloy wheels.  It's also got all the convenience features you expect including a jack for your iPod or other audio device. It's a safe, solid car for you and your loved ones.  In 2006, the Honda Civic was Motor Trend's Car of the Year for many reasons.  

Why am I selling?  Well, my wife makes do with just 1 vehicle, a Honda CRV.  Somehow, I have 5 vehicles at the moment, so this one should go to a new home.  Oddly, if I could have only 1, this would be it, but since I can have more, I have a bunch of special-purpose vehicles.  This Civic is the most cost-effective of any of our vehicles (75% of them are Hondas), and it does a lot of things very well.

If you're interested in this car and are in the Northern Virginia/Washington DC area, I'd be happy to arrange to show it to you.  The Buy-It-Now price is set at $500 below the Kelly Blue Book value, but of course that price will not be available after the reserve price is met---then the car will sell to the highest bidder.  If the car does not sell initially, I'll re-list it in June after I return from overseas.  Please do not bid if you do not have sufficient funds.  I have the title in hand, so let's have a smooth transaction.

Honda Civic Type R Concept is the shape of hot things to come

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Soon, kids. Soon. The next-generation Honda Civic Type R is finally coming, and we're getting another preview of the hot hatch here at the Paris Motor Show. Of course, this one probably won't be headed to the United States (boo!), but it doesn't mean we can't get excited. After all, we're big fans of little turbo hatches, and from what we know right now, this one sure sounds sweet.
Underneath that new blue paint and red decals is a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, reportedly good for 276 horsepower. Honda tells us there's a "steer axis" system with adaptive dampers, and with the push of its +R button, the suspension, steering and torque mapping are all altered to make this Type R even more Type R-ier than before. In fact, Honda says this Civic will surpass every Type R that came before it - that means every Integra, Accord, Civic and even the NSX. Hot diggity.
We've got a fresh batch of images of the Type R Concept up top, and Honda's press release is available below. Hopefully it won't be long before the production car is finally revealed.

Recharge Wrap-up: Honda Legend Sport Hybrid launching in Japan; driving cross-country on chicken fat

Tue, Nov 11 2014

Honda will begin sales in Japan of the Legend Sport Hybrid SH-AWD in January. The Legend is Japan's answer to the Acura RLX Sport Hybrid sold in the US. Up front, the new flagship sedan uses a 3.5-liter V6 with cylinder deactivation and a seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission with integrated electric motor. In the rear, a dual electric motor unit supplies power to the wheels. The three electric motors are also used for generating electricity during deceleration. The car has three drive modes, including EV Drive, Hybrid Drive and Engine Drive. The result is a fuel economy rating of 40 mpg, according to the JC08 cycle. Read more at Green Car Congress or in Honda's press release below. While Jay Leno explains how marketing early electric cars toward women caused them to lose out to internal combustion, the same can't be said about the current era of EVs. Leno says that early EVs, like Leno's beloved Baker, appealed to women because they were quiet, clean, and didn't require cranking to start them. This led to accessorization marketed toward women, causing men - who had more buying power than women at the time - to shy away from EVs. This time around, though, EVs target a broader audience in a different culture from the early 20th century. See Leno explain the early EV culture while driving his Baker Electric in the video below and read more at Hybrid Cars. GKN's two-speed eAxle allows EVs to make the most of both acceleration and top speed. Single-speed transmissions must sacrifice top speed for acceleration, or vice versa. In addition to improving performance at all speeds and increasing range, the GKN's eAxle also performs well in terms of NVH, providing seamless shifts and low gear noise. In order to package the eAxle in the BMW i8, the unit is just 12.8 inches by 22.1 inches by 12.3 inches and weighs 60 pounds. Read more at Green Car Congress. An alternative fuels researcher at Middle Tennessee State University will drive a truck powered by chicken fat biodiesel across the country. Professor Cliff Ricketts is driving a converted 1981 Volkswagen Rabbit pickup from Key West, FL to Seattle, WA to demonstrate the viability of chicken fat as a fuel. Ricketts admits, though, that the truck's exhaust stack is loud and smells like French fries. Read more at Domestic Fuel. This content is hosted by a third party.

Honda S2000, Acura RSX recalled over brake boosters

Fri, 14 Jun 2013

Honda has announced a recall that affects two of our favorite, dearly departed cars from the brand's portfolio: the S2000 roadster and Acura RSX coupe. A total of 5,239 S2000 models from the 2006 and 2007 model years are affected by this problem, as are 13,113 2006 Acura RSX models.
"A production error may have allowed brake booster components to be produced outside of the original specifications, potentially causing decreased brake assistance over time, which could increase the risk of a crash," American Honda said in a press release. Thus, dealerships will inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake booster setups in these vehicles, free of charge.
No crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this brake problem. Honda says the problem was discovered during warranty claim analysis.
