 My wife's mother bought this car new on July 15, 2006. She owns it free and clear. Grandma is elderly and has put only 15,791 miles on it. It has been dealer maintained since new and the mechanics are excellent. So is the interior, and there's plenty of miles left on the tires.It has the basic accessories - A/C, CD player, radio,etc. Please note: IT HAS A MANUAL (5 SPEED STICK SHIFT) TRANSMISSION.

Grandma is a nonsmoker but she does have a dog. We vacuumed the interior, so there are no dog hairs. Nevertheless those with dog allergies should take this into consideration.

The exterior is another story. Grandma is moving into a life care community, and one of the reasons is that her eye-hand coordination has been declining in recent years. This car's body definately reflects that. There are numerous small doinks and boinks on all sides, and all 4 wheel rims have road rash. A piece of plastic body cladding that goes under the front bumper and wraps under the front of the car got damaged and was removed (Its absence is not noticeable but we wanted to disclose it). Fortunately the car has never been in a major accident and there are no major dents. I repainted many of the dings and scrapes (most of them pretty small) with matching touch-up paint. From 10 feet away it looks fine.

You are welcome to test drive it and have your mechanic inspect it. There are also a number of Honda dealers near us (Arlington, VA 22213). Most will do a pre-purchase inspection for you, and you can pay them with a credit card. If we have an agreement on the price we can make it subject to  your approval of their inspection. I'll be happy to drive it over to them for the inspection.

The Kelly Blue Book private party price for this care is $9,596 in excellent condition, $9,263 in very good, and $9,064 in good. The mechanics and interior meets the KBB definition for excellent and the exterior meets the KBB definition for good.  We are aiming for the KBB Very Good Price - $9,263.

If you are having the car shipped to you I'll be happy to coordinate the pick up with them.

Honda aiming for new mpg-record on European hypermile drive

Thu, May 28 2015

Here's a warning that there will be a Honda Civic clogging up the right lane of a bunch of highways throughout Europe next month. Honda wants to set the Guinness World Record for best fuel economy for a car going through the European Union's 24 contiguous countries. To do so, we can't expect any high speeds on the autobahn. Two of Honda's finest from its UK factory will hit the road June 1 for a 25-day journey in a Honda Civic Tourer that will take the pair through two-dozen countries in 25 days. That means about 370 miles of very measured driving per day. The Civic Tourer will be equipped with a tracking device and other telematic services, and the goal is to see what kind of fuel economy the pair can get from the car's 1.6-liter i-DTEC engine. Honda isn't saying what kind of fuel-sipping figure it's looking to achieve over those three-plus weeks, which will take the car through countries such as the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, France and Spain, but the Japanese automaker is shooting for a fuel economy record irrespective of any type of powertrain, hybrids included. Take a look at Honda's press release below, and if you want to avoid or find the car en route, you can watch it on this tracker site. Honda targets new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for fuel efficiency with 8,500mile drive across Europe Honda will put the real-world fuel economy of its super-efficient 1.6 i-DTEC engine to the ultimate test in an 8,500mile drive across all 24 contiguous EU countries, with the aim of setting a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for fuel efficiency. On Monday 1st June 2015, two members of Honda's European Research & Development (R&D) team will climb into a Honda Civic Tourer and set out on an epic journey from Aalst, Belgium. Heading towards the Netherlands and Germany, their trip will see them navigate the Continent in a clockwise direction, with the aim of returning to their starting point some 25 days later, on June 25th, having covered a planned total of 8,459miles. The GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title attempt comes on the back of several independent tests which have proven Honda's 1.6 i-DTEC engine to consistently out-perform its quoted fuel efficiency in real-world driving conditions. Keen to once again underline this performance and in the challenging spirit for which the brand is famed, Honda aims to set a benchmark with a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title never before attempted in Europe.

Honda renews trademark for Acura CDX compact crossover

Wed, Jan 31 2018

Honda recently renewed its U.S. trademark for the name "CDX," which the Japanese carmaker first applied for in 2015. Back then, observers expected the name to apply to an Acura version of the Honda HR-V, and they were right — but no one expected the CDX would go on sale only in China, in 2016. For the past two years, the U.S. auto media has speculated on whether the CDX will ever make it here. "(We) have our R&D guys looking into the possibility," group VP of Acura U.S. Jon Ikeda told Wards Auto last April about the CDX. However, he went on to note that it's not as simple as just shipping it over due to regulation differences between China and the United States. The trademark application doesn't mean a green light, but it shows Honda's at least leaving the door open to the prospect. The Chinese-market CDX is a Honda HR-V after a wardrobe change. The only engine option is the 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the Civic, CR-V, and Accord, with 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet (our HR-V uses a 1.8-liter four-cylinder with 141 hp and 127 lb-ft). The only transmission offered is an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Drivetrains can be had in front- or all-wheel drive. We wonder how much longer Honda can sit on the sidelines. The CDX doubled Acura's sales in China in one year. Acura sells more crossovers than sedans in the United States, and in the past two years that the CDX has been on sale in China, the compact crossover segment here has got more crowded and more popular. The Cadillac XT4 is imminent, and we could see the new Lexus UX compact crossover at the Geneva Motor Show. Really, an American-market Acura CDX can't come soon enough.

Acura models no longer produced or sold in China

Mon, Jan 9 2023

SHANGHAI — Chinese carmaker Guangzhou Automobile Group said on Monday its joint venture with Honda Motor is no longer producing or selling products under the Japanese firm's premium Acura brand. GAC will continue to provide after-sales services to Acura customers in China through the joint venture's network, it said in a statement to Reuters. The joint venture will continue to produce other Honda brands. Acura is the second foreign car brand to exit China, the world's largest auto market, in recent months. In October GAC said it was closing its joint venture with Stellantis, which made Jeep vehicles, following a sharp decline in Jeep sales in China over the past four years. GAC-Honda, which started producing Acura cars in 2016 in China, only sold 6,554 of them in the country in 2021, down 45% from the previous year. Related video: 2022 Acura NSX Type S track footage
