Up for auction is this 2004 Honda Civic SI Hatchback, black w/black cloth interior, 5-speed manual transmission. This is essentially a one owner car (purchased by the current owner at 11k miles in 2005), with absolutely NO modifications to the body, interior, suspension, drivetrain, etc - these cars are impossible to find so close to stock! The original radio was replaced with an aftermarket CD player w/USB input - the original radio will be included with the car.

These cars are incredible to drive - very connected to the road, great seating position - the unusual gearshift position is very comfortable and easy to operate, the seats bolster well but are forgiving on long trips, the suspension is well cared for and still supportive. Gets great fuel economy while still being fun! The car also has a surprising amount of cargo room - there's lots of space with the seats down.

This Civic SI has been meticulously maintained, and though the miles have been logged, they are almost all highway, with very low stress on the vehicle. This car is still being driven daily and has been reliable and dependable every day of its life. The current owner spared no expense with any maintenance or repair - the car was never left neglected or needing work, as he needed it to get to work and back.

Recent repairs include:

-All four tires (Michelin Primacy all-season) just over one year ago, about 50-60% tread depth remaining

-Front brakes (pads and rotors) replaced within the last six months

-Rear brakes (pads & rotors) replaced this current month

-Oil changes have been every 3,000 miles using Valvoline Synthetic Max Life oil

-Driver's side front seat belt receiver replaced (warning light was on)

-Engine knock sensor replaced within the last six months

-Premium/high octane fuel used every tank

The car is straight and rust free, and shows normal signs of wear and tear that any 10 year old car with almost 200,000 miles would - small dents/dings along the driver and passenger side body, both front & rear bumpers fading and marked, driver's seat material worn, driver's floor mat worn. However, the passenger and rear seats are in excellent condition - again, this car was used as a commuter so they didn't see many miles of use.

Current owner purchased a new vehicle, so it's time for this SI to find a new home.

Bid with confidence - NO RESERVE!! Please don't hesitate to ask any questions! Delivery can be arranged for an additional fee, or we are happy to assist loading the vehicle for shipping/transport, or pick you up at a nearby airport to drive her home. Clean title in hand. This vehicle is for sale locally, I will end the auction if it is no longer available. This vehicle is sold with NO WARRANTY, implied or otherwise, AS IS.

Honda Smart Home, NJ dealer show the power of solar

Thu, Mar 27 2014

Car dealerships are not usually thought of as "green" enterprises. They sell, after all, the fossil fuel-powered vehicles that account for about 18 percent of the CO2 emissions created in the US each year. As demonstrated by Rossi Honda in Vineland, NJ though, it doesn't have to be that way. Sure, the franchise still sells cars - lots of them - but they power the entire operation with sunlight in a way that provides ancillary benefits. The franchise has installed over 900 solar panels to become electric-grid neutral. Owned and operated by the seemingly indefatigable Ron Rossi, the franchise has installed over 900 solar panels to become electric-grid neutral. They aren't plastered across the roof of the showroom and service center, though. Instead, the array is mounted on canopies over his inventory, protecting them from sun, snow, and hail. Costing about $1.3 million to install, Rossi expects the system to save twice that amount in electricity bills over its 25-year life expectancy. Not bad, right? It makes us wonder why all dealerships don't do this. Honda itself recently completed its own solar project. The super-efficient Honda Smart Home is equipped, not only with its own beefy 9.5-kW solar array, but also with a 10-kWh lithium battery-based stationary storage system to buffer the building's electricity. Amongst its many party tricks, the home incorporates a DC-to-DC charging set up that allows the complimentary Fit EV to charge with half the efficiency losses of a typical home charging unit. While the installation is quite impressive and will serve as a "laboratory" of sorts for different groups involved with the project at the University of California, Davis, we can't help but wonder if the Japanese automaker couldn't get a bigger bang for its environmental buck elsewhere. A program, perhaps, to help its many franchise dealers to take up the Rossi challenge and go grid neutral. You can watch Rossi show off his array and other increased efficiency efforts by scrolling below for a pair of videos: one from Honda and one produced by Automotive News. As a bonus, we have time-lapse footage of the Honda Smart Home going up accompanied by press releases discussing both efforts. This content is hosted by a third party.

Next Honda Ridgeline previewed in sketch

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Honda's big debut at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show may be the all-new Pilot crossover, but the Japanese automaker has released another juicy morsel for us here in the Windy City. Previewed in a sketch, Honda is giving us our first glimpse at the next-generation Ridgeline pickup (note that the drawing pictures the truck on an actual ridgeline – good one, guys). The Ridgeline always sort of steered away from conventional pickup truck wisdom, using a unibody construction with passenger-car roots. We don't know much more about the new truck, the company only saying that the next Ridgeline "will take the original's award-winning performance, comfort and utility to new levels with completely new styling that communicates unmistakably that it's a pickup, yet with a uniquely Honda flair." It's unclear exactly when the new Ridgeline will debut, though Honda expects it to go on sale sometime next year.

Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency

Sun, 25 May 2014

Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.
