Rust Free, Garaged, Woman Driver, No Smoker, Well-maintained, Loaded on 2040-cars
Londonderry, New Hampshire, United States

You already know this is a rare car, and it's a Southern rust-free example. Would not sell after getting it just right, but we got an even better Texas rust-free car last month.. I bought this wagon in Richmond VA in March 2011 with 94K miles, so it has only seen three NH winters, and those were lightly driven by my wife, who worked 2-3 days a week and it was garaged otherwise. When I bought it, the CarFax indicated it started life in upstate NY briefly, then to PA, but most of its life in VA. It was sold by a dealer, so of course he didn't fix anything, and I immediately had to put in a new radiator and fix the E-brake. It got a new timing belt and water pump at 106,485, and a new exhaust system last year. Last week it got a new front wheel bearing so that required re-alignment, now that's all set. You won't have to go through that expense again, absolutely everything works now. Look at the photos: there's no rust in the usual places, and it does not appear to have been repainted, look at that shine!!.
eBay now has an odd way of walking you through the options and equipment, so hopefully I got everything listed. The best thing about EX trim, it comes with EVerything, including moonroof and ABS brakes . The CD player is not original, it's a high-end SONY 52WX-4, and it's labeled 'satellite ready' but I never tried Sirius, etc.. It has a remote which is easier to use than the itty-bitty buttons down there on the radio. The AC is cold, I've never had to service it, and get this: The ABS STILL WORKS!!!! The (full size) spare and tools have never been used, it still has original air. This car came with alloys and worn-out tires, so I replaced with these rims, 96-97 wheel covers, and Bridgestone Potenzas which are still about 75%. It still has the luggage space cover, in good shape.. We don't smoke, and the car didn't smell like smoke when I bought it, but there was a (clumsy) smoker in its previous life, because there are three slight singes in the nap of the fabric in the drivers seat. It's nowhere near burned through, and no discoloration. Headlights are crystal clear, as is the windshield, no sandblasting or cracks or pits. Bid without hesitation, this car is fine, needs nothing, drive anywhere in comfort and economy. On May-02-14 at 18:02:28 PDT, seller added the following information:
On May-03-14 at 04:54:50 PDT, seller added the following information: Remote entry does work, keyfob not pictured. I can't believe there's another identical car on eBay, started the same day as mine, while I was struggling with my photos. On May-03-14 at 05:02:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Engine, 2.2 liter not 2.4. This engine came only in EX version on this series of Accords, later all engines called Vtek. Different head than the base engine. |

Honda gunning for world's longest Rose Parade float
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Honda has participated in the annual Rose Parade for the past 53 years and returns this year as the presenting sponsor for the fourth time running. But it's not satisfied merely putting its name on the event; Honda intends to lead from the front with what promises to be the longest float in the parade's long history.
The float, previewed in the rendering above, will measure 274 feet long, as tall as 30 feet high, as wide as 18 feet and weighing a whopping 50 tons with 8,980 flowers covering its surface. The train will be led by a locomotive designed to mimic the Acura NSX, with Asimo at the wheel. The second car in the train showcases a Honda engine, followed by a robotic arm, and, for the first time in the parade's history, a pair of 30-foot LED monitors displaying images of spectators lining the parade route. A caboose inspired by the Honda Jet will pick up the rear.
Oh, and in case you're wondering just who Honda will be knocking off the record books with its 274-foot train of roses, that would be... also Honda. The Japanese company set the record in 2005 with a 207-foot float. Scope out the details in the press release below and click the image above to view in high resolution.
Former Honda CEOs chide current boss about quality
Thu, 13 Nov 2014Taking charge of a major corporation will never be without its challenges, and one of those - as Honda CEO Takanobu Ito is finding out - is filling the big shoes of those that came before. Ito's predecessors are apparently not pleased with what he's doing to the company, and are wasting no time in telling him so.
According to Reuters, two former Honda chiefs have recently visited Ito (pictured above with his predecessor Takeo Fukui) to talk to him about the Japanese automaker's quality issues, which they apparently regard as eroding the company's image. Nobuhiko Kawamoto, who served as CEO from 1990-98, reportedly came to Honda headquarters in Tokyo to deliver "stern words" to Ito last month. Kawamoto's immediate successor, Hiroyuki Yoshino, reportedly met with Ito under similar circumstances earlier this year.
Kawamoto and Yoshino are part of a larger group of former Honda executives who are concerned with the declining quality of the company's products under Ito's leadership. Where Honda once focused more on quality, collaborating more closely with parts suppliers,more recently the company has, in the eyes of those former executives at least, shifted its focus to quantity and to new technologies. That's what, the report alleges, has led to Honda recalling so many of its vehicles in recent years.
Honda planning sub-NSX S2000 successor
Tue, 13 May 2014Nine years separated the arrival of the original Acura NSX and the Honda S2000. By that time, the NSX was closer to the end of its fifteen-year production cycle than it was to its beginning. The latest word has it that not only is Honda planning a successor to the S2000, but it's not about to wait that long after the new NSX arrives before it's rolled out.
While the S2000 was a front-mid-engined roadster, its successor will, according to the latest from Auto Express (which we are taking with a grain of salt), be a mid-engined coupe - closer, in other words, to the NSX than the S2000. Power would come from a more potent version of the 2.0-liter turbo four developed for the upcoming new Civic Type R, possibly as part of a hybrid system derived from Honda's upcoming Formula One powertain to develop over 400 horsepower.
Whether the new sports car would revive the S2000 nameplate, and whether it would wear the Honda or Acura badge in the United States, remain to be seen. As does its potential production site: while the previous S2000 was built at the same Takanezawa plant in Tochigi as the original NSX, the new NSX will be built at the new Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio. The new S660 roadster, meanwhile, is set to be assembled at the same Yachiyo plant in Yokkaichi as the original Honda Beat.
