1999 Honda Prelude Base Coupe 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars

1999 Honda Prelude Base Coupe 2-Door 2.2L This has been my personal car for about 2 years. It is running fine and has no problems that prevents it from being used for transportation. It has never broken down, and I am only selling it because I needed a bigger vehicle. Are far as I know there are no major engine problems, however there are some smaller issues that you need to be aware of. I have been told that the following mechanical items have issues or need replacement: rotors, shocks/struts, front axels. As noted above, the suspension on this vehicle needs work. In addition, the vehicle has been lowered, therefore I wouldn't recommend driving the car on large stretches of highway until you get the suspension fixed. It does not take big bumps well at high speeds. In general, it just doesn't take big bumps well (railroad tracks, large inclines, etc.). I haven't had problems driving the car in the city and on short spans of highway. There is usually only a problem once you get around 65-70 mph and hit a dip in the road. The shocks don't handle it well. In addition to the mechanical issues listed above, the vehicle has the following cosmetic/electrical/other issues: front blinkers not working (crack in left one), crack in front windshield, belt squeals for a few seconds when you crank the car (longer if the AC is on), tear in driver-side floor mat (2-3 inches), piece broken off inside driver door handle (still works), outside driver handle doesn't sit flush after released. Aside the the issues above, everything on the car works. The paint is chipping in some places and there is normal wear as you expect from a used car. |

Honda reveals new Civic hatch for WTCC
Tue, 03 Dec 2013If you thought the Honda Civic Type R prototype we drove in Japan looked cool, and that the Civic Tourer that Honda will race in the British Touring Car Championship next year looks even cooler, just take a look at this.
Possibly the ultimate race-spec Civic, this is the car Honda will field next year in the World Touring Car Championship. Like the Type R prototype (but unlike the BTCC-spec wagon) the WTCC challenger takes the form of Honda's latest Euro-spec Civic five-door hatchback.
It's the car with which Honda intends to defend its title and capture the driver's title in next year's championship. It'll face a tough challenge from the new Citroën team headlined by Sebastien Loeb in the new C-Elysee, not to mention the rest of the grid. Fortunately, Honda is entering a whole mess of these Civics in the series, with former champion Gabriele Tarquini and former F1 driver Tiago Monteiro driving the works entries (hence the mixed "Gabriago" tag on the window) and another pair to be entered by privateer teams.
Honda exec says US market near capacity, could hurt subprime buyers
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Is there a point in the US auto industry where companies should start considering the welfare of their customers ahead of selling more cars? American Honda Executive Vice President of Sales John Mendel thinks that level exists, and we may be getting very close to it.
According to Automotive News, Mendel believes that finding more customers in the market could require pursuing subprime buyers and offering longer-term loans. However, he refuses to use those tactics. While selling models this way can improve things briefly, the strategies hurt resale prices and lower vehicle profits over time. The company won't do "stupid things in the short-term that damage the person who bought yesterday," he said to Automotive News. "It's a very, very short-term tactic especially in the subprime area."
American Honda, which combines the Acura and Honda brands, has seen market share decline from 9.7 percent to 9.1 percent through July 2014, according to Automotive News, and Autoblog's By the Numbers stats showed it posted falling sales in five of the seven months with data this year. Though, Mendel claims that was partially because the company focused on retail sales over fleets. The delays of the launches for the Honda Fit and Acura TLX likely didn't help either.
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.
