PLEASE SEE EBAY ITEM # 151356738238 FOR REFERENCE BEFORE BIDDING!
This sale is from a previous eBay transaction ( See eBay item #151356738238 ) I was involved in where the seller wasn't upfront with the REAL condition of the car. I won the auction and flew out to pick up the car with the understanding that the car was "HIGHWAY READY" and that the seller had performed a Jiffy Lube inspection (at my requested expense) to prepare it for the long trip back to Utah. The seller arrived with the vehicle on a trailer and after unloading the car, I exchanged keys for payment, and prepared to leave, I noticed a crack along the entire windshield that wasn't disclosed in the eBay auction as well as a baseball sized hole in the driver seat (back part right next to the door). THE FIRST FOUR PHOTOS THAT YOU SEE ARE THE PHOTOS OF THE CAR THAT THE PREVIOUS SELLER "TONYKAW7R" DISPLAYED IN HIS AD. ALL REMAINING PHOTOS ARE ONES THAT I TOOK UPON CLOSER INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE THE NEXT MORNING. Despite these things, I began to drive home to Utah from Memphis, Tennessee. After 100 miles, the check engine light came on. I stopped for gas and checked the oil. There was NO OIL on the dipstick. This tells me that he didn't change the oil out at all. I found immaculate records of oil changes, and other services that the original owner had kept in the glove box. It appears that she did a great job maintaining the vehicle. I had an oil change done, and the service man agreed that no oil change had been done recently and that it was due for one. I proceeded on my way, and then noticed that the car would shift into 5th gear, but the shifter would pop out from time to time. This kept happening until finally it wouldn't go into 5th gear at all! I stopped by a mechanics shop and they said it would be a "repair" fix involving the linkage of the car, tightening a bolt, etc. I got a second opinion, and they also agreed. I then noticed that reverse didn't work either. I didn't get a quote for that repair since I was desperately trying to talk to the seller about what might be wrong and how we could remedy the situation. Sadly, the seller discontinued contact with me and I was stranded in Arkansas without a way to get back home. I am asking for a "BUY IT NOW" price to compensate me for the money I had already sent the seller that I will probably never be able to recover. Ebay states that since the car is over 10 years old it doesn't qualify for the "Buyer's Guarantee" that they offer, and they encouraged me to contact authorities to get my money back from the seller. I will give you a list of things I noticed while having the car checked out. 1. The car shifts GREAT from 1st to 4th! Super smooth. 2. Drink console cover is broken off, but does fit nicely in the little slit next to it. 3. Almost BRAND NEW TIRES!!! 4. A/C is super cold and works great! 5. The rear passenger window rolls slowly - possibly the motor going out. 6. Front bumper doesn't fit exactly on.. Maybe a small accident? 7. The rear passenger door can't be opened from the outside. 8. No CD player in the car - previous seller said there was one... 9. Passenger front door can't be unlocked with key. DOES WORK WITH THE POWER LOCKS THOUGH. 10. Overhead dome light isn't attached firmly and lights don't work. 11. Dingy center console cover. 12. Struts need to be replaced. PLEASE CONTACT ME REGARDING ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT THIS CAR BY TEXTING ME AT 801-288-2399 BEFORE BIDDING! |

Honda rolls out six-seat Jade Hybrid wagon in Japan
Wed, Jan 14 2015Honda has tried its hand at making hybrids of all shapes and sizes – whether dedicated or adapted to partial electric propulsion. There was the original two-seat Insight, the five-passenger Insight that followed, the 2+2 CR-Z hatchback and the hybrid version of the Vezel crossover – to say nothing of hybrid versions of the Civic and Accord. And now there's one more... in Japan, anyway. That would be the Jade, a wagon developed for the Chinese market but which Honda is now bringing home for the JDM, with a few key differences. For starters, while the Civic-based, low-slung wagon/minivan is produced under joint venture with Dongfeng principally in five-seat configuration, the Japanese version is being offered with three rows of two seats each for a total of (you guessed it) six chairs. The six-seat configuration, also offered on the conventional Chinese-market model, does away with the middle seat in the middle row in favor of more elbow room. The JDM Jade is also ditching the conventional 1.8-liter inline four in favor of the 1.5-liter hybrid and seven-speed DCT from the Vezel and Fit hybrids. Now if we could just get it Stateside with the Civic Type R engine, we could have a real sleek power wagon on our hands that would make us forget all about the Seat Leon ST Cupra unveiled just last week and let us play British touring car champion on our daily commute.

Honda gunning for world's longest Rose Parade float
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Honda has participated in the annual Rose Parade for the past 53 years and returns this year as the presenting sponsor for the fourth time running. But it's not satisfied merely putting its name on the event; Honda intends to lead from the front with what promises to be the longest float in the parade's long history.
The float, previewed in the rendering above, will measure 274 feet long, as tall as 30 feet high, as wide as 18 feet and weighing a whopping 50 tons with 8,980 flowers covering its surface. The train will be led by a locomotive designed to mimic the Acura NSX, with Asimo at the wheel. The second car in the train showcases a Honda engine, followed by a robotic arm, and, for the first time in the parade's history, a pair of 30-foot LED monitors displaying images of spectators lining the parade route. A caboose inspired by the Honda Jet will pick up the rear.
Oh, and in case you're wondering just who Honda will be knocking off the record books with its 274-foot train of roses, that would be... also Honda. The Japanese company set the record in 2005 with a 207-foot float. Scope out the details in the press release below and click the image above to view in high resolution.
Honda debuts NSX Concept-GT hybrid racer
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Not to be outdone by Lexus and its new LF-CC racecar, Honda is also bringing a little more excitement to the Japanese Super GT racing series with its NSX Concept-GT. Yes, just like the original NSX, this racecar will wear the Honda badge in its home market when it replaces the current offering in that series, the non-production HSV-010 GT, which itself replaced the NSX in the series back in 2010.
Looking exactly how we'd imagine a race-prepped 2015 Acura NSX to look, this racer is mean and sexy at the same time, and it will be powered by a racing hybrid system with a turbocharged four-cylinder mounted behind the driver. No word on power output, but it will compete in the GT500 class, which restricts power output to 500 horsepower. Unlike the Lexus racecar, the Honda NSX Concept-GT will being competing this season starting with this weekend's race at the Suzuka Circuit before running the full 10-race 2014 season.
