- Interior: The car has minimal aesthetic wear and tear on the interior. I'm a non-smoker and don't let others smoke in the car. There was no sign that the car had previously been owned by a smoker. The seats are in great shape (very clean, no rips or tears) as are the floor mats with the exception of the driver's floor mat. When the car was purchased the driver's floor mat had a minor rip, which has no functional impact, merely aesthetic. The dashboard and center console are neat. Since owning the car my practice has been to thoroughly clean the car several times a year. I'm confident saying that the interior has been well kept.
- Exterior: As you can see from the pictures, the car is very clean and orderly. On the front passenger-side panel where it meets the front quarter panel there is a minor indentation (NOT a dent) that I haven't been able to adjust. It should be a quick fix. Other than that, there is minor wear and scratches on the rear bumper. Other than that the car's exterior is in great shape.
- Operation: I have all/most of the car's records and have conducted routine maintenance and upkeep. I just put 4 new tires on the car within the month. The car runs well and just received a number of new parts because of general mileage. The air system occasionally has a slight musty smell upon start up. As you can see from the pictures, I typically get between 38-41 MPG depending on the time of year and specific driving conditions. During the summer, with heavy air conditioning use the MPG drops to 36-39 MPG (Not bad at all still). During the spring, autumn and winter it jumps up again.
- Other than those described above I can't think of any other features. The car is straight forward and optimal for commuting. I'm also a very active person and have found the car perfectly capable of holding the equipment I've needed. Space is certainly limited because the batteries are between the back seat and the trunk, so you can't put the seat down and put skis in or something like that. But it could get a roof rack if the owner desired.
- I purchased this car in February of 2010 on the East End of Long Island from Apple Honda as a certified used Honda with about 60K miles. The car currently has 123k miles, for an average of 18k miles per year. I am selling the car because I am moving to a city where I will be biking and using public transportation. If I were still living in any area where I needed a car I'd certainly be keeping this vehicle.
- Full payment required within 7 days of decision
- Cash for in person transactions, certified funds, institutional financing, US Dollars.
- Sells to United States: Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick up or shipping.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
Honda CR-Z gets much-needed supercharger
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Honda has really taken its time in getting an aftermarket supercharger kit for the CR-Z to enthusiasts in the US. It's finally on sale, though, and it makes you wonder if the hybrid hatchback shouldn't have had it from the day it went on sale.
The supercharger kit developed by Honda Performance Development boosts output from the CR-Z's 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine to 197 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque, according to Honda spokesperson Jessica Howell, an improvement of 67 hp and 36 lb-ft. It also adds an air-to-air intercooler, high-flow fuel injectors, a recalibrated ECU and new air filter for $5,495, before installation. However, the setup only works for six-speed manual transmission models from the 2013 and 2014 model years. If you want to take things even further, HPD is also offering an optional limited slip differential for $1,375 and sport clutch for $640, according to Howell.
Development of the supercharger kit has been ongoing for years. We first saw it on the CR-Z Mugen RZ in 2012 in Japan, in which it barely bumped power to 153 hp. Later at SEMA, Honda improved things to a more respectable 185 hp. Then in 2013, we actually got to drive an early version boasting 190 hp and found it a solid improvement over the stock powertrain. It appears Honda had some further tweaks to get things to the current 197 ponies. More good news: assuming you get the package installed at a dealer, the car maintains the balance of its 5 year/ 60,000 mile Honda limited powertrain warranty.
2014 Honda Accord Hybrid [w/video]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Delivering On Promises
The 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid should surprise no one. Its look is something we've seen since the non-hybrid versions went on sale last year. Its powertrain, mostly, we are familiar with from the already-on-sale Accord Plug-In model. And the overall vibe of the car? Well, it's an Accord, which has been a strong seller in the US for three decades, so much so that there's a very good chance you've been in one at some point, whether you noticed or not.
Honda's first attempt at an Accord Hybrid, released in 2005, put dynamic performance first, but it didn't match the public's maturing perception of what a hybrid is all about: fuel economy. The 2005 version was capable of a measly 28 miles per gallon combined, 25 in the city and 33 on the highway. Remember those numbers, and that the first-generation Accord Hybrid lasted all of three model years before being axed.
