Hello, and thank you for looking at my item on Ebay. This item is for a 1996 Honda Accord EX, automatic, cloth interior, 4-cylinder 2.2 VTEC, front-wheel drive 4-door sedan. I have had this car for almost 5 years now and it never broke down on me even after 35,000+ miles. This Honda drives straight and quiet, shifts smoothly, and is fuel efficient, about 26 MPG average. When I bought the car almost 5 years ago at 175,000 miles, I had the timing belt, water pump, alternator belt, power steering belt, A/C belt, platinum spark plugs, distributor cap and wires, coolant flush, thermostat, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, brake pads all around, new tires, new exhaust, transmission fluid changed, front two side marker lights, headlights, A/C compressor, CV axles, and battery all replaced new. I recently installed a new battery just about a year ago. The first battery failed prematurely. Basically all major tune-up parts were changed. During that time, I kept the throttle body clean, cleaned once a year. Some poor-performance issues can be resolved by keeping the throttle body clean as far as I know and have experienced. Earlier this year, I had the front right wheel bearing explode on me while I was driving to New York City. I had the car towed back to New Jersey, and then had both front wheel bearing replaced with new ones. I also installed new upper control arms and new outer tie rod ends too during this time as they were showing signs of age. THIS WAS THE ONLY TIME THIS HONDA LET ME DOWN and it was my fault. I heard the wheel bearing noise for a few thousand miles and I just ignored it. Never again will I ignore a wheel bearing going bad. I drove from Philadelphia to Niagara Falls New York and back during a hot summer weekend for 4 hours straight and it did not break down on me or complain or showed any signs it was stop working. I went and came back in total peace knowing this Honda would not fail me. I drove it back and forth to Philadelphia and New York City for work, never a problem and getting stuck on the road. This car looks terrible because of the front hood. The hood got damaged while I was driving at 50 MPH one day. The hood latch released the hood due to lock failure and it popped open while I was driving and hit the top of the windows just one inch above the front windshield. Talk about getting the hell scared out of you. The hood did not rip off, just slammed onto the front roof of the car. The windshield and sunroof glass were not damaged. This happened 4 years ago, just a few months after I bought this car. I noticed a chip on the windshield that happened just about a month ago. This might be able to be repaired or may need to replace the windshield. Most of the body is in good shape, an easy paint job for sure. The A/C is not working, fans and heater work. I tried to get the A/C to work, but failed. This may be a simple fix by someone that knows how to fix automobile A/C systems. It does leak a little motor oil, only about 1 quart every two months or so. I think it is on the valve cover bolt gasket, not the valve cover gasket. All windows, cruise control, radio, sunroof, power mirrors, interior lights, dash lights, brake lights, headlights, speedometer, heater, and brakes all work. Front and rear brake pads changed in February, along with one new front caliper. The other calipers were cleaned and serviced. New rear rotors too. Parking brake works. Power steering works. Everything works except for the A/C, thermostat, muffler, and driver side window (sticks a little). Charging system charges at 14.5V+. Rear main seal is tight and not leaking at all. CV axles are in good shape. For more pics and to see a couple videos, please visit http://www.tnemicro.com/accord96. Please allow a few minutes for the videos to download. It is not a new car, but it sure runs like one. I have another car that I want to fix up and use from now on. I had this Honda for almost 5 years and I was very happy with it, but it is time for her to have a new owner. There is a very low reserve. Happy bidding!

Honda S660 Kei car makes you want to jump in and drive

Tue, Mar 31 2015

We want the Honda S660. In fact, after seeing the freshly debuted production model, it's fair to say the kei roadster has already leapt to the very tip-top of our forbidden fruit list. Considering our newfound love for the tiny two-seater, you, dear reader, are going to have to put up with a lot of S660 content in the coming weeks. First up, we have what's called nori-setsu, or "riding instructions." Honda recruited a pair of gymnasts, who use their talents to slide, creatively, into a mockup of the S660. While the acrobats make it look easy, we imagine the amount of space in the S660 makes slotting into the driver's seat off a pommel horse is somewhat dangerous, hence the padding and mocked-up roadster. Fortunately, when an actual S660 is brought out to play, the gymnast finds a more conventional means of getting behind the wheel. Check out the video.

Carmakers ask Trump to revisit fuel efficiency rules

Mon, Feb 13 2017

Car companies operating in the US are required to meet stringent fuel efficiency standards (a fleet average of 54.5MPG) through 2025, but they're hoping to loosen things now that President Trump is in town. Leaders from Fiat Chrysler, Ford, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota and VW have sent a letter to Trump asking him to rethink the Obama administration's choice to lock in efficiency guidelines for the next several years. The car makers want to revisit the midterm review for the 2025 commitment in hopes of loosening the demands. They claim that the tougher requirements raise costs, don't match public buying habits and will supposedly put "as many a million" jobs up in the air. The Trump administration hasn't specifically responded to the letter, although Environmental Protection Agency nominee Scott Pruitt had said he would return to the Obama-era decision. The automakers' argument doesn't entirely hold up. While the EPA did estimate that the US would fall short of efficiency goals due to a shift toward SUVs and trucks, the job claims are questionable. Why would making more fuel efficient vehicles necessarily cost jobs instead of pushing companies to do better? As it is, even a successful attempt to loosen guidelines may only have a limited effect. All of the brands mentioned here are pushing for greater mainstream adoption of electric vehicles within the next few years -- they may meet the Obama administration's expectations just by shifting more drivers away from gas power.

eBay Find of the Day: Ayrton Senna's 1993 Honda NSX

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

It's not often that things owned by the late Ayrton Senna come up for sale, but the seller of this black-on-black 1993 Honda NSX (aka, Acura NSX) eBay find claims it was once owned by the Formula One legend, and that he left a footprint on the factory carpet that can still be seen today. (Footprint, or vacuum lines?...)
NSX no. T000999 was given to Senna as a gift from his mentor and sponsor, Antonio de Almeida Braga, the seller claims, and it was stored at a palace near the Estoril F1 circuit in Portugal. He also was known to drive two other NSXs, a black one and a red one - the latter in which he was seen often.
The seller claims to have owned T000999, which is still in Portugal, for 17 years, and the 31,000-mile odometer indicates it was driven about 1,500 miles per year on average. Thankfully the car has been kept stock, so whoever buys it can enjoy driving it just as Senna did - that is, if the car actually is what it's claimed to be. If the story checks out, then this is one valuable NSX, which is reflected in the high minimum starting bid of 47,500 pounds ($73,620). There have been no bids at time of writing, but with nine days left in the auction, we'll be keeping our eyes on this one.
