There are several scuffs here and there due to it's age. NO accidents. Body is in good condition, just minor dings. It can use a paint job and is peeling here and there (mostly on the bumper and XENON bodykit). On the car itself, the top of the mirrors and back panel show sun damage. The rims and tires are in decent condition. The driver seat leather shows wear from getting in and out and there is a tear at the lower section. Back seat lower section has small half inch tear as well. Floor mats are a bit soiled and carpet underneath has been discolored over the years, however they are not filthy. Some paint spilled in the trunk, liner was thrown away. There are still some paint smears here and there. Spare tire and jack are there. There is a small chip in the windshield. The dashboard is really clean. Main issue: transmission seems to slip out of gears. Can starts and drives, but slips bad."

This is a NO RESERVE auction. Highest bidder wins. This car is good for someone who knows how to fix cars. I am the original owner. There are several scuffs here and there due to it's age. NO accidents. Body is in good condition, just minor dings. It can use a paint job and is peeling here and there (mostly on the bumper and XENON bodykit). There is also a nice flush mount spoiler on the trunk. On the car itself, the top of the mirrors and back panel show sun damage. The rims and tires are in decent condition. The driver seat leather shows wear from getting in and out and there is a tear at the lower section. Back seat lower section has small half inch tear as well. Floor mats are a bit soiled and carpet underneath has been discolored over the years, however they are not filthy. Some paint spilled in the trunk, liner was thrown away. There are still some paint smears here and there. Spare tire and jack are there. There is a small chip in the windshield. The dashboard, radio, and controls are super clean, almost new looking. Some locks don't open or close with the auto switch. Have to do it manually. All windows open and close, sunroof too. Power seats work fine. Main issue: transmission seems to slip out of gears. Can starts and drives, sometimes needs a jump, but slips bad. I don't have the money to fix. Buy this car, fix yourself and save $$. If it wasn't for the transmission, it will still be driving strong. As you can see from the pics, this car is in nice condition for its age. Or if you own an auto part store, you will make thousands of dollars selling the parts. That is not my line of work and I don't have the time to be taking cars apart and selling parts, or I'd do it myself. At this point, I just want to sell it to the highest bidder to take it off my hands. Registration was last paid in 2012 and is currently listed as non operational with the DMV.

So if you are familiar with this issue and can fix it, buy it for this low price and either keep it for yourself or sell it and make money.  Buyer must be able to pick up the car from Covina, CA. Or coordinate and pay for shipping if you are out of the area.

Acura NSX to be built in Ohio in 2015

Tue, 14 May 2013

Honda today confirmed that the forthcoming Acura NSX hybrid supercar will be built at a brand-new facility in Ohio. This will be the company's third plant in Ohio, and will come as the result of a $70 million investment. Honda first hinted that NSX production would be coming to Ohio when the original concept car was revealed at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show.
Honda's new facility, called the Performance Manufacturing Center, will encompass a 184,000-square foot space inside of the automaker's former North American Logistics building and will employ 100 associates. As you might expect, the Performance Manufacturing Center is located just a few miles from Honda's American-based R&D facility, as well as the Marysville auto plant, where production of the 2014 Accord Hybrid will kick off this fall.
"The location of this facility is in the midst of one of the greatest collections of engineering and production talent in the world. So it makes sense that we will renew the dream and build this high-tech, supercar in Marysville, Ohio," said Hidenobu Iwata, president and CEO of Honda of America, in a press release.

Honda Fit, Vezel Hybrids recalled in Japan; US vehicles not affected

Tue, Feb 11 2014

Honda has announced a good-sized recall of two popular Japanese-market hybrids: the Fit Hybrid and the Vezel Hybrid are both headed back into the garage. The problem this time around lies in the software program that controls the 7-speed dual clutch transmission (DCT) that could "cause a delay in the ability to begin driving or the inability to move at all." In total, 81,353 units are affected (70,929 Fit Hybrids and 10,424 Vezel Hybrids) and all were made in Japan between July 2013 and February 2014. There were two previous recalls for the new Fit Hybrid's DCT, and you can find the details of them below. Jessica Fini, assistant manager of PR for Honda North America, told AutoblogGreen that this recall will not have any impact on US Honda vehicles. For one thing, the US Fit has a continuously variable transmission (CVT) instead of a DCT, so the upcoming launch of the new Fit here (the US doesn't get the Fit Hybrid) will not be delayed. Honda's upcoming small SUV in the US (based on the Vezel, but will arrive with a different name) isn't going to launch here until the end of the year, so there is time to fix any problems before launch. She also said that the Acura RLX, despite being a DCT, does not use the same transmission as the Fit Hybrid does, since the Fit transmission is specific to the one-motor hybrid system and the RLX uses three electric motors. Recall of All-New Fit Hybrid and Vezel Hybrid ref. # C14-009 TOKYO -- February 10, 2014 – Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today announced a voluntary recall of the all-new Fit Hybrid and Vezel Hybrid produced in Japan from July 2013 through February 2014 due to a problem with the software program controlling the 7-speed dual clutch transmission (DCT) which could cause a delay in the ability to begin driving or the inability to move at all. Honda today notified the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of the recall with a total recall population of 81,353 units. Honda conducted two recalls in October and December 2013 due to a defect with the software program controlling the 7-speed DCT which could have caused a delay in the ability to drive the vehicle or the inability to drive. This will be the third recall related to the defect of the 7-speed DCT.

Honda CR-V spot delights with 'impossible' illusions

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Mind-blowing car commercials that employ optical illusions and jaw-clenching stunts instead of computer animation are becoming the norm these days, and everybody from Volvo Trucks to Forza Motorsport 5/McLaren are regular contributors to the growing trend. Honda joins the crowd in its latest European commercial for the CR-V 1.6 i-DTEC Diesel, and uses well-placed props and well-drawn imagery to trick viewers into seeing the "impossible."
The old-fashioned optical illusion is alive and well in Honda's "An Impossible, Made Possible" spot, so go ahead and watch it and the making-of video below.
