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. |

Honda and Mario Andretti cite pedestrians for excessive slowness
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Honda and the Andretti family have a lot to celebrate at the moment. Andretti Autosport driver Ryan Hunter-Reay won the 2014 Indianapolis 500 in his Honda-powered car, and Marco Andretti, Mario's grandson, also managed to take the third step on the podium. Apparently, the victory is making them feel magnanimous because Honda and Mario Andretti are giving the chance to ride with him in a two-seat, open wheel car.
To promote the contest, they created the Honda Speed Patrol to ticket anyone going too slow. It's an interesting idea, and the chance to ride with Andretti would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Perhaps the biggest shock of the video, though, might be when you realize how short Mario is when you see him milling about in public. Scroll down to watch one of America's most respected racers cite people in Chicago for being too slow.
'Car Wars' says Ford, Honda to pick up share, Fiat-Chrysler ambitions downplayed
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Don't look for a tremendous shifts in automotive market share over the next three years because it might not be coming. That's at least according to the annual Car Wars report by John Murphy, from Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global Research.
In the report's analysis of automakers' market share from 2013 to 2017, it predicts only small changes among the major companies. Ford and Honda see the biggest positive effect with an estimated 0.5 percent increase in their shares over the next three years; to 16.2 percent and 10.3 percent respectively. On the flip side, European automakers and Nissan are expected to lose 0.2 percent each to fall to 8.3 percent and 7.8 percent each respectively. The rest of the industry is predicted to hold steady as it is now.
The biggest loser in that prediction might be Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles. The report certainly throws a wet blanket on its plan for significant gains in market share. Murphy told The Detroit News that the company's goal was "almost unattainable."
Honda ending CR-Z, Insight sales in Europe
Fri, Feb 21 2014Death by diesel? That may be the epitaph of the Honda Insight and CR-Z in Europe, where the Japanese automaker will discontinue sales of the two hybrid models before to the 2015 model-year. A Honda spokesman confirmed the discontinuation to Automotive News, and information on those models has been taken off of Honda's official websites in Germany, Spain and Italy. The European embrace of all things diesel and fuel efficient as well as competition from Toyota are the primary culprits. The cancellation is not a surprise. Insight sales in Europe fell a whopping 62 percent last year while CR-Z sales there plunged 66 percent. Combined, both models sold less than 2,000 units in Europe last year, Automotive News says, citing JATO Dynamics. Honda is having trouble moving the Jazz Hybrid (also known as the Fit) in Europe as well. European sales declined about 40 percent last year to around 4,500 units. Those numbers compare rather unfavorably to a 43 percent surge in Toyota's hybrid sales in Europe to about 153,000 units. The Insight may face the same fate in the US. Last year, US Insight sales fell 18 percent to 4,802 units, a small, small challenge to the more than 234,000 Toyota Prius variants sold in the US in 2013. Honda has not made an official statement on the Insight's fate here, but the sales are speaking for themselves.
