We are selling our beloved 2004 Honda Accord (EX with leather seats/front seats have seat warmers). I must say, we really don't want to, but we have a new member in the family and find that we need something a little bigger. We purchased this vehicle new from the dealership and have cared for it since it's purchase. This car runs great, and looks great. The car is 9 years old, and has several small door dings, which I tried to include with the pictures, but they are so small I don't know if they can be seen. There is also a small crack in the front bumper, from when a car in front of us kicked up a small metal plate. It didn't puncture the bumper, but did crack it. If it were not so cold out when it happened, I don't think it would of cracked at all. The car handles great in the winter and in the rain. It is fully loaded (with the exception of a navigation system). Here is the history of our car.
Several years (I believe 2006) after we purchased the vehicle, the head liner began to sag in the bag seat. The car was taken back to the dealership for repair. After the repair, we found they had dripped glue on the rear seat and the seatbelt straps, which faded the color. Of course we took it back for repair, which they fixed (I believe they died the material to match).
In roughly 2009, we had approx. 65000 mile on the car. While driving to work, the engine began making a funny noise. I pulled over and had it towed to our repair shop. We learned that we had a piston seized. Needless to say we were upset. We had the oil changed every 5,000 miles. Come to find out (we believe), the place we were having it done was using recycled oil. The business that had been doing our oil changes went out of business. We had to decide what to do, rebuild the engine or replace the engine. We decide that replacing the engine was the best choice. We purchased an engine that had about 47,000 miles on it. We have had no issues since then. We have the oil changed every 5,000 miles and use synthetic oil.
We put a new battery in roughly March of 2012, and had new brake/rotors in 2012. The oil was just changed 2 weeks ago. I just had the tires rotated this week at the Goodyear Center (the tires are Goodyear Assurance, P205/60R16). I have the paper work showing the tires have 7/32" tread (which they said was about 70% tread left). While washing the car, I saw that there was a small paint chip on the lower left front bumper. I bought some touch up paint and touched it up. You can barely see it. I also touched up several small stone chip on the hood and bumper.
The last issue we have had is the airbag light has came on several times, then goes off. I have taken it in to the dealer twice to have them figure it out. And of course the light turns off, so they can not read the code. Last week, while it was on, I researched this on-line. On a forum it suggested that I buckle the driver seatbelt before starting the car, and if the light goes off, then it has something to do with the seatbelt. It also said that if you unbuckle the seatbelt while it is running, and the light comes back on, it is a faulty seatbelt. So I tried this, and sure enough the light went off and back on when unbuckled. I headed to the dealership to have it fixed. And of course, the light is back off so they can not code it. I have been told by several people to not try to repair the system myself, it is easy to cause more damage. And frankly it is something I wouldn't want to try and fix myself. I have been assured by several people that if the airbag light is off, that the airbag will deploy when needed. If the light comes back on prior to selling it, I will again try and get it to the dealership for repair. The forum I read stated that there is a federal mandate for lifetime warranty of seatbelts.
I may have to use this vehicle a few times until it is sold, so the mileage will be a little higher, but no more then 250 miles. You are welcome to have the vehicle inspected, and you can test drive the vehicle. The dealership offer we had was STUPID, and they told me "to be honest you can get more if you sell it yourself". Please know this is a used car, 9 years old. There is no warranty, and is sold as is. But remember this is the flagship for Honda, and after all it is a HONDA. I will assist with having it shipped, which will be the buyer responsibility to arrange. I will work with the buyer if they decide to fly in and drive it home. I would not hesitate to drive this car to South America. We average about 26 mpg (combine city/highway).
The car comes with 2 sets of keys/key pads, and the valet key. The car has a remote start installed, and we have 2 remote starts pads as well. Please ask any questions. A $500 deposit is requested within 48 hrs. after close of auction. Deliver/possession can be made after funds have cleared the bank. We have a clear Michigan title. We reserve the right to end the auction early, due to vehicle be available for sale locally. Please do not send funds FED EX or UPS. I will only except payment by (if certified check is mailed) the United States Postal Service, which helps protect the buyer and seller.
On Jun-10-13 at 12:37:38 PDT, seller added the following information:
I have the car at the dealership and they have ordered the parts to fix the problem, which was the seatbelt. Will be ready tomorrow. Also the sunroof is a power operated moonroof.

Honda bundles up CR-V Special Edition with optional extras
Wed, Oct 7 2015The 2016 Honda CR-V Special Edition is based on the LX trim level, but packs a bunch of extra equipment. It gets 17-inch alloys, a two-tone paint job, tinted rear windows, and a security system. That's about the sum total of what makes this special edition special, but then Honda isn't asking much of a premium for it. The new Special Edition trim slots in between the base LX and the higher-level EX – and below the top-spec EX-L and Touring models. It'll be available in either front- or all-wheel-drive configurations, with prices starting at $24,395 for the former and $25,695 for the latter. That's the MSRP without taxes, registration, or the $880 destination charge. What that boils down to is a modest $800 premium over the base model, which doesn't strike us as a whole lot to ask for the extra equipment – never mind the "special edition" handle. Perhaps most telling, though, is that Honda hasn't released any specific photos for the CR-V Special Edition. It has, however, given us a fresh batch of the 2016 model altogether. And you can check it out in the gallery above, along with the details in the press release below. AMERICA'S BEST SELLING SUV CONTINUES MARKET LEADERSHIP WITH INTRODUCTION OF NEW SPECIAL EDITION 2016 HONDA CR-V Coming off a year of record sales and numerous industry accolades, the exceptionally well received Honda CR-V returns for 2016 with a Special Edition trim offering exterior and security upgrades over LX Oct 6, 2015 - TORRANCE, Calif. -- After a major refresh for 2015 that brought a new powertrain, significantly enhanced exterior and interior styling and a long list of new standard and available features, the 2016 Honda CR-V returns with a new Special Edition (SE) trim and a lineup with a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $23,595.1 The new Special Edition CR-V is positioned above the LX trim by adding larger 17-inch alloy wheels with an exclusive two tone finish, second-row and rear privacy glass, and security system. With only an $800 premium over the LX, the SE represents a high-value proposition for the premium look and additional feature content. In addition to the highly prestigious Motor Trend Sport/Utility of the Year honor, the refreshed 2015 CR-V garnered numerous industry accolades. These include: - 2015 ALG Residual Value Award: Best Compact Utility - 2015 Kelly Blue Book Best Buy: Small SUV/Crossover - Kelly Blue Book 2015 Top 10 Best Resale Value award - U.S.
6 best cars for $5,000
Sat, Aug 11 2018Looking for a great used car but only have a few thousand bucks to spend? Check out our 6 favorite used vehicles that you can get for around $5,000 or less. 1. 2004-2006 Subaru WRX The Subaru Impreza WRX offers a lot of what you might want in a vehicle. A 2L turbocharged engine gives 227 horsepower and it gets 27 mpg on the highway. 2. 2006-2015 Mazda5 The Mazda5 never got the sales it deserved. It was affordable and more maneuverable than most vehicles, but it never took off. It was based on the Mazda3, and felt like it as well... just a bigger version. If you're lucky, you'll be able to locate one with a manual transmission. 3. 1990-1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata A car that's praised for rewarding the driver. The shifter is sublime, and the controls are light and accurate. The 1.6-liter engine that makes 115 horsepower or a 1.8-liter that makes 128 horsepower are our preferred versions. 4. 2009-2013 Honda Fit Beside being cute, it's supremely practical and great in the city. It manages to be pretty entertaining to drive, and let's not forget it's a hatchback. 5. 1987-2006 Jeep Wrangler Yes, it's possible to get a well-loved Jeep Wrangler with about 100,000 miles on the odometer. In many ways, a Wrangler is perfect for the snowy winters with its unrivaled 4x4 capability. An SUV, convertible and icon, all in one? What more could you ask for? 6. 2002 Chevy Silverado Truck lovers, we have you covered. We love the Chevy Silverado with a 5.3-liter V8 engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission. It makes a great second car, especially if you already have a fuel efficient vehicle around the house. What would you buy for $5,000?

Honda Odyssey hybrid under consideration in Japan, but not US
Thu, Feb 13 2014"Over time you can expect to see broader application of our two motor hybrid system" - Sage Marie The idea of a hybrid minivan is not new, at least in Japan. Toyota sells the Estima - the world's first hybrid minivan, it has been available since 2001 - and the Aphard hybrids there. The US is not immune to the dream - in 2011, Chrysler said it was going to make a hybrid minivan in 2013 (didn't happen) - but there has never been a gas-electric minivan sold from a major automaker in the US. And, despite new rumors of a Honda Odyssey hybrid for Japan, the chances that the US will get one in the near future remain roughly at zero. A new report says Honda is considering a hybrid version of the fifth-generation Odyssey in Japan, and such a gas-electric powertrain could reduce fuel use by up to 50 percent. Honda powertrain assistant large project leader Takashi Shinchi told CarAdvice that the hybrid (not a plug-in version) is "under consideration," given the hybrid minivan competition in Japan. Such consideration is not happening in the US, at least not in any serious way. Sage Marie, senior manager of public relations for Honda North America, told AutoblogGreen, "The only thing the Japanese Odyssey and the US Odyssey have in common is the name. There are no current plans for a US Odyssey hybrid, but I will tell you that over time you can expect to see broader application of our industry-leading two motor hybrid system." The standard, gas-powered 2014 Odyssey gets 22 miles per gallon, combined (19 city and 28 highway).
