1996 Honda Prelude Kenwood Audio Built Show Car on 2040-cars
Benson, North Carolina, United States
If you have more questions or want more details please email : katiearlington@netc.it .
This is a show, and display vehicle built by Kenwood Audio to showcase their high performance line of car audio
products.
Nothing was overlooked on this custom creation. It was built to the highest professional standards, with every inch
of the car refurbished, replaced, or customized, including the undercarriage.
The vehicle has traveled the country, making appearances at dozens of shows. It was then displayed on the showroom
floor at Rock Springs Honda.
The engine, and trans have both been rebuilt. The vehicle literally has less than 5 actual miles on the build.
The list of customizations is almost endless. The most major things are the ridiculous audio set up, the fully
glassed and molded seamless body kit, completely adjustable custom coil over suspension, and an impeccable interior
with custom
leather seats. The back seat was removed, in favor of an insane custom sub enclosure. It was also graced with
smooth scissor doors, and a paint job so deep, u could practically swim in it (which alone was over 10k), and
wheels to match.
Look closely at the photos. What you see, is what you get. The vehicle has always been stored in climate control,
and has exactly zero rust. This is a brand new car, only better.
The actual value is probably 3 times the asking price.
The car has a clean title.
Vehicle is also posted elsewhere for sale, and subject to removal from EBay at any time.
$500 deposit is required within 24 hours of the sale, and balance due within 7 days.
Buyer is responsible for pick-up, or transportation of the car within 2 weeks of purchase.
This car is ready to show, or be registered for an awesome daily driver.

Honda issues second Fit window recall, this time for 143k units
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Honda has announced it is recalling certain 2007-2008 Fit models in the US to fix what could have been faulty repairs made in a previous round of recalls. The vehicles may have been manufactured with a master driver's window switch that could allow rain water or spilled liquids into the switch. If that happens, the liquids could cause the switch to overheat, melt and potentially damage the vehicle's wiring or cause a fire. Honda says no accidents or injuries have been reported due to the problem, but warns owners to park their Fit hatchbacks outside until a dealer can inspect the switch.
All told, the recall covers 143,083 Fit units. Back in 2010, Honda recalled the 2002-2008 model-year Fit for the same issue. That recall covered some 646,000 units worldwide after a two-year-old child in Cape Town, South Africa burnt to death while sleeping in a Fit. Honda says the repair made during that round of recalls may not have been sufficient, and the latest fix should take care of the problem for good.

Honda accused of not reporting all airbag problems
Fri, 17 Oct 2014The Takata airbag recall that has afflicted a number of automakers may have just taken a very bad turn for Honda, which has already recalled over one million vehicles. Clarence Ditlow and the Center for Auto Safety have accused the Japanese manufacturer of failing to report two "injury-and-death" incidents. To determine just what happened, the company has initiated a third-party audit.
According to Bloomberg, CAS claims Honda failed to report fatalities in 2009 and 2013, a point Honda doesn't seem to contest, indicating that it didn't report so-called "verbal claims."
"It is our understanding that some manufacturers choose to include these types of verbal claims, and that these constitute the majority of the injury-and-death claims that they report to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration," the company told Bloomberg via email. "We believe this practice accounts for the vast majority of the difference between the total number of injury-and-death claims reported by Honda compared to certain other manufacturers."
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
