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 previews new BR-V three-row crossover for Indonesia
Tue, Jun 30 2015Honda is planning to roll out a new seven-seat crossover in Indonesia. But before it does, it's giving the public a taste of what's to come with a concept to be unveiled in Tangerang, previewed in the pair of teaser renderings you see here. Dubbed the BR-V prototype (for Bold Runabout Vehicle), the Honda concept calls for a three-row crossover with room for seven passengers – just like the Pilot we get over here. But if the design sketches are anything to go by, it'll look better. We'll reserve final judgement on the styling until the actual thing is unveiled in the metal, though. Full technical specifications are likely still a ways off from being announced. However the Japanese automaker and its Indonesian importer have confirmed that the BR-V will be powered by a 1.5-liter gasoline engine of unspecified output, mated to a choice of two transmission options. We don't know whether one of those might include all-wheel drive or not, but Honda has indicated that it's built high ground clearance into the BR-V – which ought to keep it from being confused with the low-riding Subaru BRZ, to say nothing Honda's other similarly named crossovers like the CR-V or HR-V. That's about all we know for the time being, but the BR-V promises "to address various customer needs" with "a tough and solid exterior design" combined with a "comfortable and spacious cabin." Locals can start anticipating its unveiling at the Gaikindo Indonesian International Auto Show in Tangerang this August, when P.T. Honda Prospect Motor will already open up the order books.

Honda Prospect Motor released the first official sketches of the all-new Honda BR-V Prototype which will make its world premiere at the upcoming Gaikindo Indonesian International Auto Show 2015, scheduled for 20 - 30 August 2015, in Tangerang, Indonesia. The new BR-V was jointly developed for the Asian market by Honda R&D Asia Pacific Co., Ltd., in Thailand, and P.T. Honda R&D Indonesia. This model will be introduced to the Indonesian market as Honda's new generation crossover utility vehicle to address various customer needs. The new BR-V features tough and solid exterior design with high ground clearance, big and stylish alloy wheels and sleek roof rails. The model also offers a comfortable and spacious cabin with seven seats in a 3-row configuration.
Meet the Kanjozoku, Osaka's infamous street racers
Thu, 17 Jul 2014Street racing is obviously illegal and incredibly dangerous, but that has never stopped people from doing it. While we don't hear nearly as much about the scourge of Japanese tuner cars as when The Fast and the Furious first hit theaters over a decade ago, illegal street racing is still bubbling under the surface all over the island nation. An excellent new documentary short from Bowls Films takes a look at the Kanjozoku from Osaka, Japan; a group that claims to be partially responsible for the tuning style known as JDM.
The group gets their name from their preferred route known as the Kanjo. It's a 4.77-mile long loop of connected highways running right through the city of Osaka. You might expect a hardcore group of illegal Japanese racers to show up with highly tuned Nissan GT-R and Toyota Supra coupes, but the Kanjozoku evidently eschew all of the others in favor of one particular car that they love: the Honda Civic.
According to the video, that vehicle of choice came in part from the city's location. Osaka was relatively near the one-make Civic races held at Japan's legendary Suzuka racetrack. The hatchbacks thus became the default weapons for the Kanjozoku's street battles.
