1999 Honda Accord Lx Sedan 4-door 2.3l Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Fort Smith, Arkansas, United States
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 demonstrates new Vehicle-to-Pedestrian safety tech [w/video]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We're fresh from a balmy rooftop deck in downtown Detroit, where Honda held a meeting this week to discuss and demonstrate a few upcoming advanced safety features. A clear focus of the mini event was the company's new Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) technology, with a suite of Vehicle-to-Motorcycle (V2M) tech a significant second course.
With spirits still high from announcing the 2014 Odyssey as the first minivan to win the Top Safety Pick+ status from IIHS - and after seeing the application of new high-strength-steel sections of the Acura MDX body structure - Honda shared the fruits of some safety tech that is still in the research phase.
Honda already working on NSX roadster
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Honda doesn't do many convertibles. There was the original Sports 360, the Civic del Sol, the S2000 and the Beat. But so far, that's pretty much it. The previous NSX was offered with a targa-style top, but the latest reports indicate that the Japanese automaker is already working on a proper convertible version of the new NSX, to be sold once again as an Acura in North America and a Honda in other markets.
Although it's not yet known whether the NSX roadster will offer a hard or soft top, sources indicate that it won't be a mere removable roof panel. Whatever form it does take, however, expect it to arrive a good couple of years after the tin-top version launches in 2015 with a similar form to the concept but with different underpinnings and a radical interior.
Fred Savage wants to narrate your home videos to practice for Honda gig
Mon, 27 Oct 2014Honda is getting ready to launch a new advertising campaign with Fred Savage of The Wonder Years (and The Princess Bride) fame, and in order to get his voice in game shape, Savage is taking to social media to get prepared. More specifically, he's apparently interested in adding some voiceover to fun videos provided by fans of the Honda brand, and all you have to do to be considered is to get his attention on Twitter using the hashtag #HondaPromo.
We have no idea how Savage or the Honda PR team plans to choose which videos will be turned into narrated works of art, but we do think it's a pretty fun idea. So, if you happen to have a video that could use some narration, and you think Savage would provide the perfect pitch, hit him up. Oh, be sure to read the terms and conditions first.
