You already know this is a rare car, and it's a Southern rust-free example. Would not sell after getting it just right, but we got an even better Texas rust-free car last month.. I bought this wagon in Richmond VA in March 2011 with 94K miles, so it has only seen three NH winters, and those were lightly driven by my wife, who worked 2-3 days a week and it was garaged otherwise. When I bought it, the CarFax indicated it started life in upstate NY briefly, then to PA, but most of its life in VA. It was sold by a dealer, so of course he didn't fix anything, and I immediately had to put in a new radiator and fix the E-brake. It got a new timing belt and water pump at 106,485, and a new exhaust system last year. Last week it got a new front wheel bearing so that required re-alignment, now that's all set. You won't have to go through that expense again, absolutely everything works now. Look at the photos: there's no rust in the usual places, and it does not appear to have been repainted, look at that shine!!.
eBay now has an odd way of walking you through the options and equipment, so hopefully I got everything listed. The best thing about EX trim, it comes with EVerything, including moonroof and ABS brakes . The CD player is not original, it's a high-end SONY 52WX-4, and it's labeled 'satellite ready' but I never tried Sirius, etc.. It has a remote which is easier to use than the itty-bitty buttons down there on the radio. The AC is cold, I've never had to service it, and get this: The ABS STILL WORKS!!!! The (full size) spare and tools have never been used, it still has original air. This car came with alloys and worn-out tires, so I replaced with these rims, 96-97 wheel covers, and Bridgestone Potenzas which are still about 75%. It still has the luggage space cover, in good shape.. We don't smoke, and the car didn't smell like smoke when I bought it, but there was a (clumsy) smoker in its previous life, because there are three slight singes in the nap of the fabric in the drivers seat. It's nowhere near burned through, and no discoloration. Headlights are crystal clear, as is the windshield, no sandblasting or cracks or pits. Bid without hesitation, this car is fine, needs nothing, drive anywhere in comfort and economy. On May-02-14 at 18:02:28 PDT, seller added the following information:
On May-03-14 at 04:54:50 PDT, seller added the following information: Remote entry does work, keyfob not pictured. I can't believe there's another identical car on eBay, started the same day as mine, while I was struggling with my photos. On May-03-14 at 05:02:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Engine, 2.2 liter not 2.4. This engine came only in EX version on this series of Accords, later all engines called Vtek. Different head than the base engine. |

Honda underreported 1,729 claims of injuries or deaths since 2003
Tue, Nov 25 2014Among these underreported cases were eight Takata airbag inflator ruptures not submitted. Following an independent audit of its safety reporting procedures, Honda has found massive holes in its methodology and practices that resulted in 1,729 claims of injuries or deaths going unreported to federal authorities dating back to July 2003. The cases should have been submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration as part of its quarterly Early Warning Reports (EWRs) under the TREAD Act, but they fell through the cracks for a variety of reasons. Honda blames the underreporting on three factors: data entry errors, computer coding problems and "an overly narrow interpretation of what constituted a 'written notice' under the TREAD Act." The first two issues were related to the computer program that collected the claims. If employees didn't enter a date in the "written claim received" field, then they were omitted from the EWRs. Also, the company's internal component codes didn't always match those used by NHTSA, and only the ones that were the same were disclosed. Finally, third-party documents, including police reports, were not considered. Honda says the computer error is now corrected, and the company is updating its data entry training. In the future, written and oral claims will be included in EWRs, as well. Among these underreported cases were eight Takata airbag inflator ruptures not submitted in Honda's EWRs, including one death and seven injuries. However, the automaker claims NHTSA was already aware of all of these incidents either from the agency's own records or from the company's notification outside of the EWR process. Unfortunately, this problem could have been stopped much sooner. The issue was first brought to light in 2011 but didn't result in a followup. NHTSA advised the automaker of discrepancies in January 2012, and it still did nothing. This third-party audit wasn't commissioned until September 2014. "Honda acknowledges that it lacked the urgency needed to correct its problems on a timely basis," it says in the announcement. Separately, the Japanese government is starting an investigation, as well. According to Reuters, the Japanese Transport Minister has created a task force to look into the Takata recalls and find out whether Honda under-reported incidents there.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
