1989 Honda Crx Base Coupe 2-door 1.5l on 2040-cars
Vineland, New Jersey, United States
I have listed here my personal 1989 honda CRX DX 1.5L DPFI 5spd. Im getting rid of her to fund my 69 dodge project. This car has many new parts, recent maintenance and very clean and complete interior. For the most part the car is stock, never had the motor swapped, no wiring repairs. It has ALWAYS been adult driven never ever raced (come on, its a dual point 1.5L not a race car). other than that this car has been tastefully modified.
Exterior: car has a base/clear paint job dont professionally in Milano Red PPG brand paint. no cheap paint job here! Also plenty of paint/clear on the car for a wet sand and a buff. All rust repaired properly with steel oem panels. very little filler used. it has 3 coats of clear with gold pearl. All trim has been cleaned and coated, rear window seals are new. the windows were removed before paint and the old hard gaskets replaced so no more leaks from the rear windows like most CRX's. every panel on this car is oem no certifit or body master junk here only honda. Interior: Mint seats with NO rips in the the cloth where normally the driver side bolster is torn to shreds. oem radio, all knobs, trim and all inside is there and very clean. The rear cargo cover is complete though the vertical part in the back is a little worse for wear. the rear top cargo cover is still in one piece NOT split in two like most CRX's this age. carpet is very clean, comes with CRX oem floor mats but they show their age. Windows were originally tinted but i removed it all except the rear hatch glass. it definitely helps keep the sun from beating down on the interior through that big back window. not only that i didnt want to risk damaging the rear defrosters because they still function. Drive train: Motor has been gone through and runs amazing with new timing belt, tensioner, water pump, head gasket, plugs, wires, filters, fresh oil change, batter, new clutch 6k miles ago. Ive also put in a new thermostat, random vacuum hose and lines as needed. Wheels: Rims are factory Acura Intergra wheels commonly called "blades" or "swirlies" in my area. The clear has been removed and they have been polished. They could be taken a little further but I dont want too much flash. Tires are almost new Kumho ecstas 195/50/15. Suspension: This Crx rides on Black Works Racing full coilovers, BWR rear lower control arms and Skunk2 front upper camber kit. The brakes are oem type pads but not cheapy charlie. I personally replaced the axles a little while back as one was clicking. Exhaust: 2.25" aluminized piping with a factory cat, new O2 sensor, oem resonator and a magnaflow muffler. has a very nice not ricey sound. very throaty for the engine size. I have added oem mud flaps and a factory Si lip to the car. The rears are new oem and the fronts are older but in good shape. The bumper lights and blinkers are all oem and in great shape! the carpet in the car is in very pristine shape as well. Im sure there is something I am missing. I will update it as I remember details. That all being said, this is a 25 year old car. the doors close like a brand new car and seal tight but it does have little things here and there that arent perfect. The hatch rattles a little bit over big bumps, minor scuffs on the plastic on the inside, the little tab in the glove box broke but i glued it. Its been fine ever since and you cant tell unless its pointed out. The driver side door catch has been repaired professionally and is tight and straight as the day the car was made. Like i said, little stuff here and there. The car is not perfect but this is personally the cleanest of 9 crx cars that i have owned. Is it a show car? no but damn close. It gets great gas mileage, gets a ton of looks and is done very well in my opinion. What you see is what you get. NO warranties implied car for sale as is where is. I have a clean title in hand ready to go. I will also entertain REASONABLE offers. |

2015 Honda Fit shapes up for America [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014The Fit may be Honda's smallest (and, starting at $15k, most cost-effective) model, but it has never sold in quantities that even approach those of the brand's larger offerings - at least not in the United States. Where American Honda typically sells hundreds of thousands of Civic and Accord models - even CR-V crossovers and Odyssey minivans - annual sales for the Fit typically amount to tens of thousands. But the Japanese automaker hopes to expand its sales in the segment with the introduction of the new 2015 Honda Fit.
Having launched the all-new model several months ago in the Japanese Domestic Market, Honda is presenting the new Fit to the North American market here at the Detroit Auto Show. By and large, it's the same model that will be sold around the world, having been redesigned with more aggressive styling, a larger footprint on the road and more interior space. Only now it will be built for North American consumption at Honda's new plant in Celaya, Mexico, where the automaker plans to also build its new Vezel crossover (or whatever it'll be called here).
The North American Fit ditches the hybrid setup offered in the JDM model in favor of a new Earthdreams 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with direction injection and i-VTEC valve timing to help it deliver 130 horsepower and 114 pound-feet of torque. That's 13 more horses and 8 more torques than the previous model, and the engine can be paired to either a six-speed manual or Honda's new continuously variable transmission. With the latter, Honda projects the Fit will get 33 miles per gallon in the city, 41 on the highway and 36 on the combined cycle. Lighter and more refined than the outgoing model's powertrain, the new engine sits in a lighter and more rigid frame as well, which Honda expects will earn it top ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
GM, Ford, Honda winners in 'Car Wars' study as industry growth continues
Wed, May 11 2016General Motors' plans to aggressively refresh its product lineup will pay off in the next four years with strong market share and sales, according to an influential report released Tuesday. Ford, Honda, and FCA are all poised to show similar gains as the auto industry is expected to remain healthy through the rest of the decade. The Bank of America Merrill Lynch study, called Car Wars, analyzes automakers' future product plans for the next four model years. By 2020, 88 percent of GM's sales will come from newly launched products, which puts it slightly ahead of Ford's 86-percent estimate. Honda (85 percent) and FCA (84 percent) follow. The industry average is 81 percent. Toyota checks in just below the industry average at 79 percent, with Nissan trailing at 76 percent. Car Wars' premise is: automakers that continually launch new products are in a better position to grow sales and market share, while companies that roll out lightly updated models are vulnerable to shifting consumer tastes. Though Detroit and Honda grade out well in the study, many major automakers are clumped together, which means large market-share swings are less likely in the coming years. Bank of America Merrill Lynch predicts the industry will top out with 20 million sales in 2018 and then taper off, perhaps as much as 30 percent by 2026. Not surprisingly, trucks, sport utility vehicles and crossovers will be the key battlefield in the next few years, Car Wars says. FCA will launch a critical salvo in 2018 with a new Ram 1500, followed by new generations of the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra in 2019, and then Ford's F-150 for 2020, according to the study. Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy said the GM trucks could be pulled ahead even earlier to 2018, prompting Ford to respond. "This focus on crossovers and trucks is a great thing for the industry," Murphy said. Cars Wars looks at Korean (76 percent replacement rate) and European companies more vaguely (70 percent), but argues their slower product cadence and lineups with fewer trucks puts them in weaker positions than their competitors through 2020.

Honda shows us 'The Challenging Spirit of Honda'... in Japanese
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Just as Porsche has done with its lengthy Le Mans gear-up, Honda is is laying the table for its Formula One return more than a year before we'll actually see it on track. We've heard what it's 2015 engine will sound like, reminisced with the 1988 McLaren Honda MP4/4 and the 1964 Honda RA271 and spoken to the company's CEO about what F1 involvement could do for its production car engines.
The automaker has now released a video called The Challenging Spirit of Honda that traces the development of its in-house F1 program and the jump from motorcycles to the first RA270 F1 chassis in 1962, to the RA272 chassis that won the 1965 Grand Prix. The only catch: the video is in Japanese. However, you can read about the winning car in English, and the video ends with another sound check of the 2015 power unit. That is a universal language, and you'll find it being spoken below.
