Up for sale or trade is my 92 Accord. This Accord was handed down to my friend after her Grandma passed away. The car lived in California and Idaho (no road salt in Idaho) up until a couple years ago when she moved here. I bought it from her with 99K miles last March as she was moving to China with her job and I needed a sedan since my wife and I were having our first baby in June. Both Carfax and Autocheck show 5 owners, but i know for a fact i am the 3rd owner, so i am assuming they counted moving to Idaho and then to Minnesota as 2 owners even though it was the same person!
As everyone knows, these CB7 accords with the F22 motors are probably the most reliable, dependable, and efficient transportation machines ever built. With just over 101K miles, this thing is just barely broken in, and with 32 MPG it's almost more expensive to walk! So if you want to hit Dick Cheney where it really hurts, his Swiss account, then buy this car and use less fuel.
Here is a list of the things that have been replaced since April 2012....these things were not broken, just replaced a preventative maintenance as i have had 3 other accords like this all of which reached 300K and i know what goes wrong as miles get higher. My wife drove it for about a month and did not like it and wants a CR-V instead.
-All new Honda OEM transmission cables...(they were not broken, but they are known to get stiff and make it hard to shift. So this was more preventative)
-Full Transmission flush with the new and improved Honda DW-1 transmission fluid instead of the old Z1. This was not a cheap flush that ruins transmissions, instead it was done according to Honda's recommendation, which was drain, refill, drive.....drain, refill, drive......drain, refill, drive..... final drain and refill. This takes a total of 12 quarts and at $12.85 a quart plus labor.......you do the math!
-Timing belts (both cam timing belt and balance shaft timing belt), idler, tensioner, and water pump replaced one thousand miles ago at 100K. (High quality Gates timing belt and components)
-New OEM cam seals.
-New OEM crankshaft seals.
-Full tune up including, spark plugs, OEM ignition wires, OEM distributor cap, OEM distributor rotor.
-New OEM valve cover gasket.
-New OEM Spark plug tube seals.
-New OEM Radiator.
-New OEM thermostat and a coolant flush.
-New alternator and power steering belts (High quality goodyear belts)
-New OEM oil pressure switch....was not broken but these are known to eventually leak so it is taken care of.
-New brakes all around.
-All weather strippings and rubber on the doors have been replaced because these are also known to go bad.
-New OEM main relay....was not bad but those usually burn out and cause intermittent no start issues so i beat it to the punch!
-AC system was converted to the new R134a....not even gonna go into how expensive this was!
There is virtually no rust what so ever on this accord, not even underneath! the paint is still very good and shines accept for 1 tiny scratch by the back light, and one by one of the door handles, both of which i have pictured. It has an alpine MP3 player, and Bose speakers. Everything works including all power windows, power locks, power mirrors, cruise control, power moon-roof, heat, and AC. With all the work done to this car, you can be sure that it will be ticking for thousands of miles and years to come! It's a bit dusty so it could use a wash!
This car is listed locally on craigslist #3604205409 and i can end this auction at anytime.
In the pictures the car has aftermarket wheels and tires on, those are not included. The car will come with the original Honda alloys and brand new all-season tires....The after market wheels are staggered with new ventus V12 tires, 225s in the front and 235s in the back and i am willing to sell those if you want them.
I am interested in trades for a CLEAN 1st gen Honda CR-V. I am only interested in 1999 to 2001 model years and it must be an EX or SE model and be AWD. I don't care if CRV has mechanical issues, even a non running CRV is fine as long as it is rust and accident free.
On Feb-11-13 at 18:49:34 PST, seller added the following information:
I have had a lot of emails asking if there is a "buy it now". So just to be fair to all bidders, i wanted to make sure everyone knows that the "buy it now" is the reserve, and i will end this auction early for whoever leaves a deposit and shows serious interest.

Wolff: Honda will emerge as strong F1 force
Sat, Feb 13 2016Mercedes motorsport boss Toto Wolff has no doubts that Honda will make a success of its Formula 1 return, despite the Japanese manufacturer's disappointing time last year. Honda endured a troubled return to F1 in 2015 as it struggled with reliability and a lack of power from its new turbo V6 hybrid engine. But having made gains over the campaign, and a significant revamp of key elements of its power unit over the winter, Wolff thinks that Honda is on course to deliver. "Honda is a huge organization with lots of resource, and they were the power unit with the most impressive development curve through 2015," Wolff said in an interview with his Mercedes team's YouTube channel. "Even if it was a very difficult year for them, it was still very good what they achieved in terms of how they progressed through the season. I have no doubt they will be a strong competitive in the future." Wolff's comments come despite Mercedes engine chief Andy Cowell saying last week that he was not convinced that Honda's 'size zero' concept was the right approach for the current regulations. Manor step As well as predicting good things for Honda in the future, Wolff has predicted promising results for the Mercedes-powered Manor team in 2016. "Manor will make a big step up and not only because of the engine," said Wolff, who helped secure a drive at the Banbury-based team for Mercedes junior driver Pascal Wehrlein. "There is a good bunch of people coming together: impressive individuals, with the right budget and right attitude, and Pascal in the car. "I have confidence that the car and driver will have highlights and be a solid midfield runner."

Honda issues bizarre non-recall on Odyssey over badge placement
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Without looking under the hood or at a vehicle history report, one of the easiest way to tell if a car has had body work done is to check the location and placement of the exterior badges. A crooked, misplaced or missing badge can be a telltale sign that there has been some sort of body or paint work. For this reason, Honda is suggesting that some owners of the 2014 Odyssey take their vans into the dealership for a little rebadging.
The topic was brought to light after Consumer Reports received a notice from Honda saying that the "Odyssey" badge on its test vehicle was incorrectly installed at the factory. The badge is supposed to go on the driver's side of the liftgate (as shown above), but the customer vehicles had it placed on the passenger side of the car. Not a huge deal unless an owner is trying to sell the vehicle and the improperly installed badge leads potential owners into believing the vehicle may have been damaged in some way. Here's what Honda said in its letter:
On some 2013 Odyssey vehicles, the Odyssey emblem was incorrectly installed on the passenger's side of the rear tailgate. The emblem should be installed on the drivers' side of the rear tailgate. American Honda Motor Company highly recommends that you participate in this Product Update. The placement of the emblem may indicate that the vehicle has had repairs performed that are consistent with it being in a crash. This could affect the resale value of the vehicle.
Honda opening first new motherland plant in almost 50 years
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Despite opening dozens of overseas plants in the past several decades in locations all over the globe, Honda Motor Co. has not expanded its car manufacturing capabilities in its home market of Japan since opening a facility in Sayama back in 1964.
But all of that is set to change this July when Honda opens the doors to a new assembly plant in Yorii, about two hours north of Tokyo. According to Bloomberg, the new facility has a projected annual capacity of 250,000 vehicles. The plant is part of the automaker's reorganization efforts, plans that include scaling back its older Sayama plant and bringing Yorii online with more efficient and innovative technology. There are additional benefits, too, as the Yorii plant is expected to create 3,800 jobs, both on-site and at its suppliers, and boost the local economy as other businesses ramp up to accommodate the influx of new workers.
While the automaker has not released specifics about which models will be produced at Yorii, Honda is expected to consolidate production of models including the Fit, a best-seller in its domestic market.
