1997 Honda Prelude Base Coupe 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars
Homestead, Florida, United States
|
I'm offering my base model, manual transmission Honda Prelude as a straight auction with no reserve. The car has under 100,000 miles and is in great mechanical shape. I bought the car new and I've been the only owner.The title is clear. I put over 2000 bucks into repairs shortly before I stopped using this car as my daily driver three years ago. I replaced the timing belt, the water pump, the radiator, shocks, and various front axle components. That's the good news. The negatives of the car are that it was involved in several fender benders over the years. It has not been run on a weekly basis for years. And, it has been out in the rain in humid South Florida, so the interior has some moisture damage. I think a good cleaning would make the interior pretty close to new. The car needs a new battery and could probably use new tires.
Because the car definitely needs some work, this is not a good buy for someone looking for something to ride off into the sunset in. However, it will be an amazing deal for any Honda Prelude enthusiast with mechanical aptitude, who can quickly turn this car into a really great machine again. The only item in the car that is not stock is the stereo, which is a JBL cd/usb deck. Let me know if you want to set up an inspection. Buyer must pick up in Miami, FL. This is a great deal. I've procrastinated selling this car because I wanted to get what I thought it was worth, which is north of $4500. But I realize that I don't have the time or energy to clean the car up and make it more presentable. This is a great opportunity for someone with the mechanical aptitude. Bid with confidence. Questions are welcomed. Thanks. |

2015 Fit Kit is the perfect DIY car from Honda
Mon, 31 Mar 2014Ah... let the April Fools' Day automotive jokes begin. Honda is kicking things off, following up on last year's Honda Hair joke with a prank video featuring the 2015 Honda Fit.
It's called the Fit Kit, and as you might guess, it's a way to build your own version of the redesigned hatchback. There are 180,000 mechanical parts in the kit - some delivered by drone - but that doesn't seem at all daunting to the pair of obnoxious, self-described tinkerers that star in the Fit Kit ad.
Honestly, the video is pretty entertaining, with some biting satire of the DIY movement and its attendant cadre of mustachioed hipsters. Scroll down and have a look at both the video and the Fit Kit press release from Honda.
McLaren collaborating with Honda future road cars?
Fri, 02 Aug 2013McLaren and Honda may expand their alliance beyond the world of Formula 1, according a report from the UK's Autocar, which quotes McLaren CEO Martin Whitmarsh.
Citing the multi-year deal, Whitmarsh remarked at last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, "It's a pure Formula 1 contract, but we've already been looking at automotive technology and we're sharing that very openly. Our road car strategy at the moment has no other automotive partner and Honda would be a good place to collaborate."
Still, we wouldn't count on seeing a McLaren-Honda road car in the near future. According to Autocar, McLaren's road-car division is already tied up working on a rival for the Porsche 911, called the P13.
Honda Civic Tourer reminds us why we love wagons
Tue, 10 Sep 2013It was the early 1990s when the last Honda Civic Wagon graced our shores, looking more like a squat five-door hatchback with an extra dose of charm. Well, Honda debuted the newest Civic Wagon Tourer at the Frankfurt Motor Show today, but, as we reported last month, it's a European model that will go on sale there early next year. There's still no word of it coming to the US.
The Civic Tourer was designed by Honda's European studio, and its overall look comes across as more muscular, sporty and stylish than both the sedan and two-door coupe, with bulging fenders and revised windows. Adrian Killham, large project leader for the Civic Tourer, has commented on the styling, saying, "Recently launched cars have tended to follow a similar style. The Civic Tourer has a different balance and appeal." We appreciate the sentiment, and the Tourer's shape is a big reason why we like it.
But we also like the 22 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up, which grows to a gargantuan 59 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. The big Civic will be powered by either a 1.8-liter four-cylinder petrol engine with i-VTEC or a 1.6-liter Earth Dreams i-DTEC diesel engine. Manual and automatic transmissions will be offered.
