1999 Honda Accord Lx Coupe As Is on 2040-cars
Southington, Connecticut, United States
|
Up for sale is a 1999 Honda Accord LX Coupe (2 Door) with approximately 198,000 miles. I recently purchased a newer Accord and do not have the time (or desire) to fix the issues with thiscar. I will try to describe the car as best I can so everyone knows exactly what they are bidding on. I have been driving the car as a daily driver (mostly highway miles during my ownership), and it is fully operational - you can drive it home. The car drives and runs fine, with only the minor issues noted below. I have owned the car for about 2 years and have put on about 50k miles. I have the title in hand, and it is a clear title.
The car has a manual transmission, a 2.3 Liter 4-cylinder engine and is front wheel drive. The car has A/C, power windows and power locks. The exterior of the car is in overall good condition. The clear-coat was peeling off a few years ago and I had it repainted blue, as you can see. The only minor issue on the exterior is some paint missing on the front bumper due to me pulling too far forward when parking into some icy snow. There are no major dents, dings, scratches, etc on the car. The interior of the car is in great, clean condition. There are no stains, rips, tears, etc on the upholstery and the dash is in very good condition. The only known issues on the inside of the car are that the bulbs that backlight the clock and radio are burned out, which doesn't really affect anything, it's just a little hard to see the buttons at night. Two of the rear speakers seem to be blown out as well. The manual transmission is operating great, there are no issues with the transmission that I have experienced. The car always starts and the engine runs good for the most part, except as follows. The check engine light is currently on (code P0171), which means the car is running lean (not getting enough fuel). Due to this, the car hesitates under hard acceleration, and when returning to idle, the car shudders. It does not really affect the drive-ability of the car, but it is a bit annoying. There also seems to be a small oil leak on the driver's side of the engine, which has been there since I bought the car (it has not gotten any worse since I've owned it). The CV joint also makes a clicking noise when I turn the car under full lock to the left. I replaced one of the CV joints a few months ago, so I'm guessing the other one also needs to be replaced now. The car has new all-season tires on it (maybe a few thousand miles on them). The suspension, alignment and balancing of the wheels all seem good to me. In summary, the car is in overall good condition, with a few minor issues that are easy to fix. It would be great for a daily driver or project car. Feel free to ask any questions prior to bid. If you want to see the car, I am located in central CT and could arrange for a viewing / test drive. Good luck and happy bidding! NOTE - I have described every issue that I know of on the car to the best of my ability - I am not a mechanic. I do guarantee that the car is perfectly drive-able at the moment, however I am selling the car in "AS IS" condition. |

eBay Find of the Day: Ayrton Senna's 1993 Honda NSX
Fri, 09 Aug 2013It's not often that things owned by the late Ayrton Senna come up for sale, but the seller of this black-on-black 1993 Honda NSX (aka, Acura NSX) eBay find claims it was once owned by the Formula One legend, and that he left a footprint on the factory carpet that can still be seen today. (Footprint, or vacuum lines?...)
NSX no. T000999 was given to Senna as a gift from his mentor and sponsor, Antonio de Almeida Braga, the seller claims, and it was stored at a palace near the Estoril F1 circuit in Portugal. He also was known to drive two other NSXs, a black one and a red one - the latter in which he was seen often.
The seller claims to have owned T000999, which is still in Portugal, for 17 years, and the 31,000-mile odometer indicates it was driven about 1,500 miles per year on average. Thankfully the car has been kept stock, so whoever buys it can enjoy driving it just as Senna did - that is, if the car actually is what it's claimed to be. If the story checks out, then this is one valuable NSX, which is reflected in the high minimum starting bid of 47,500 pounds ($73,620). There have been no bids at time of writing, but with nine days left in the auction, we'll be keeping our eyes on this one.
Ugly Moto makes beautiful motorcycle art [w/video]
Thu, 08 May 2014Ugly Moto is a horrible name for a company that makes such wonderful motorcycle art. The creation of artist Francis Ooi, the company's illustrations focus on some of the iconic racing bikes of the 1960s and 1970s.
The artwork has an elegant simplicity that really makes it pop. It would fit just about anywhere from a home office to the bedroom of a young gearhead. Ooi has completed six illustrations so far covering classic cycles from Honda, Ducati, Yamaha and even Harley-Davidson. According to his site, the Suzuki RGB500 ridden by Barry Sheene will be the next one released. All of the prints are priced at $65 and are limited to 100 copies. They are all about 16.53 inches by 23.58 inches in size.
According to his website, these prints are just a hobby for Ooi and his real career is as the creative director at an ad agency. He creates the illustrations on his Mac, and he estimates that each design with about 800 components and layers takes about a month to complete. You can get idea of the process involved in the time-lapse video below.
Honda launches Project Drive-In to save these American icons
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Honda wasn't really a major player in the automotive industry when drive-in movie theaters were popular in the US, but the automaker is doing its best to preserve the place where automotive and cinema histories collide. Using Project Drive-In, Honda is helping bring awareness to a story we brought up last month, where we saw how a move away from 35-millimeter film could put some of the few drive-in theaters remaining in the US out of business.
As production studios switch to digital film, theaters are required to upgrade to digital projectors, which Honda says will cost about $80,000 for drive-ins. While Project Drive-In asks people to donate money to the cause or pledge to go to a drive-in theater, Honda will also be donating projectors to five of the remaining drive-ins based on votes received on its website. Scroll down to watch a short video describing Project Drive-In, and be sure to vote, pledge and even contribute to save the drive-ins.
