Honda Accord Limousine Low Miles Garaged For Years One Of A Kind on 2040-cars
Wellton, Arizona, United States
1985 HONDA ACCORD LIMOUSINE WITH VERY LOW MILES AND IN VERY GOOD SHAPE! CAR HAS BEEN IN MY DADS GARAGE FOR YEARS. LAST TAGS ON PLATE WERE FROM 2002 AND EVEN THEN HE RARELY USED IT. WE HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE 1993 AND WAS ALWAYS GARAGED AND MAINTAINED. OVER THE PAST 21 YEARS WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IT HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 13,246 MILES. I AM SELLING THE CAR FOR MY MOTHER SINCE MY FATHER HAS PASSED. SO FAR I HAVE PULLED IT OUT OF THE GARAGE AND MOUNTED 4 NEW TIRES, INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY, DRAINED THE FUEL AND ADDED FRESH FUEL, CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER. THE CAR STARTS AND RUNS BUT RUNS ROUGH AT IDLE-NEEDS TO HAVE THE CARB CLEANED OUT(YES IT IS CARBURATED)AND OR ADD FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER AND RUN LONGER TO HOPEFULLY CLEAR UP THE IDLE CIRCUIT. WE ARE IN A RURAL AREA SO I HAVE DRIVEN IT WITH THE EXPIRED TAGS TO MAKE SURE IT WAS SHIFTING THROUGH THE GEARS AND DRIVING PROPERLY...IT RUNS FINE AND SMOOTH ONCE OFF OF THE IDLE CIRCUIT AND PULLING FROM THE PRIMARY OF THE CARB. THE CAR HAS SOME MINOR COSMETIC ISSUES BUT THE BODY IS STRAIGHT AND IT IS AN ARIZONA CAR...ALTHOUGH IT DOES SHOW SOME MINOR RUST TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE UNDER CARRIAGE MOST LIKELY FROM WHERE THE CAR WAS SECTIONED INTO THE LIMOUSINE. THE A/C WORKS JUST NEEDS TO BE CHARGED. ANY QUESTIONS OR ADDITIONAL PICS JUST MESSAGE ME-I HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME TO INVEST IN CHARGING THE AIR CONDITIONING OR CLEANING THE CARB BUT PLAN TO DO SO IF I GET THE TIME. ONCE THAT HAPPENS AND TAGS ARE RENEWED SO THE VEHICLE CAN BE USED PRICE WILL LIKELY CHANGE-THANKS

Honda announces 2015 Pilot Special Edition
Tue, 03 Jun 2014Honda doesn't have any exciting new mechanical or aesthetic changes for the 2015 Pilot eight-passenger crossover, but it is adding a new trim level to give families a compromise between the EX and EX-L models.
The new Special Edition trim is available on either the front-wheel or all-wheel drive versions of the Pilot, and it adds Pewter Gray aluminum wheels, a power moonroof, a rear seat entertainment DVD system and Sirius XM radio. Prices come to $33,950 for the two-wheel drive version, after the $830 destination charge, or $35,550 for all-wheel drive after destination.
Prices for the rest of the trims are up $200 over last year, and they all still come standard with remote entry, a rearview camera and Class III trailer hitch. Power is still provided by a 3.5-liter V6 with 250 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque with a five-speed automatic. Fuel economy is unchanged as expected with front-wheel drive models rated at 18 miles per gallon city, 25 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined, and four-wheel drive models make 1 mpg less at 17 mpg city, 24 mpg highway and 20 mpg combined. Scroll down to read the official release.
United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars
Tue, May 10 2016Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America – which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports – and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models – AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders – the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars – Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories – a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant – that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.

Honda returning to F1 as McLaren partner
Thu, 16 May 2013Honda must really love Formula One racing, as evidenced by today's announcement that the Japanese automaker is returning to the world's most popular motorsport for the fifth time in its history. Honda has entered into a team partnership with McLaren to develop and manufacture power systems - the engine and energy recovery system - for the 2015 F1 season. McLaren will be in charge of chassis development and running the day-to-day operations of this newly formed team, which will be called McLaren Honda.
Honda says its decision to reenter F1 racing had to do with new regulations for the 2014 season that require cars to be powered by a 1.6-liter direct-injection turbocharged V6 engine paired with an energy recovery system. Apparently the chance to develop this particular powertrain for F1 racing was too enticing for Honda to pass up, which suggests it has bigger plans for the knowledge learned while developing these systems beyond just winning races.
As mentioned, this is Honda's fifth foray into F1 racing, the first being back in 1964 when it participated as its own team through 1968. Its longest stint came from 1983-1992 as an engine supplier, during which time it partnered with many teams, including McLaren, and won six Constructor Championships. Honda then returned from 2000-2005 as an engine supplier for British American Racing (BAR) before buying that team outright and running it as Honda Racing from 2006-2008. Then the global economic crisis hit. Honda's return to the sport will surely be welcomed by fans as its partnership with McLaren should produce a formidable team. It's a strong signal that the company has returned to health after a few tumultuous years, and hopefully its rediscovered motorsports mojo will help yield more passionately engineered street cars.
