Car was purchased and sat for around a year, didn't know what I wanted to do with it. Having had an 88 Hatch, 93 Hatch, & a 94 Coupe as a daily, I grew tired of the 94 coupe. Decided to swap most of the parts off the 94 to this 91, and return the 94 to stock and sell it. I drove the car for about 18 months, and having found a great deal on a Cadillac STS, parked the civic and started driving the Cadillac. Eventually the engine in the STS developed a rod knock, so I swapped in a Optima Yellow top and put the 91 back on the road. After about a month, the engine decided to throw in the towel, and the #2 Cylinder has no compression. Either the rings got stuck, or a there's a break/crack in the piston that I can't see with the videoscope. I've tried almost all methods to free the rings (gasoline/trans fluid/mystery oil) all with no success. The car will need to have the bottom end rebuilt or replaced. The engine is about 11 years old, and was supercharged for 9 or those years (12psi). Engine has been in all of my previous civics, and supercharger kit/MSD/Ported head setup has been in the last 3. Supercharger has about 35K on it since rebuild/porting. The upper tensior pulley will need new bearings as well, as the inner bearing is gone. The Body isn't as bad as some EF Civics of this age (23 years). Has typical rocker rust (exterior), inner structure solid. Rust in rear passenger corner above light. When I purchased the car, hood and core support were caved in as a result of a tree or other large object falling on the car. Hood & Bumper filler are still in black primer coat. Drivers Fender is white, and core support is burgandy. Front could use a little stretching on a frame puller if you wanted perfect alignment from the hood to drivers fender, off by approx 1/8in height. Lens covers for bumper lamps are missing as well. Also worth mentioning, the carbon fiber vinyl has started to peel from the A/B/C pillars and will need to be re-glued. Easily a DIY or take to a trim shop and can be done a couple hours. Car will need to be towed as it currently doesn't run. I have roughly $10,000 invested into this car, not counting one penny towards labor. I did all the wrench work myself, interior, exterior, electrical, ALL. If I add a labor figure to this car, @ $60/HR and 10-10HR days (Actual is about double that), it would easily add $6000 to the value. I would like to cut my losses and sell it. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean that I'm looking to give this car away. If you are truly interested, and want a fun car that just needs a little work to be road ready, contact me ASAP. Swapping the engine is literally a Sunday with pizza and beers. Asking price is fairly firm around $4250, not set in stone, but again, NOT GIVING THIS AWAY. Car is located in POSEN, IL. 3 Min off of I57, and 10 Min off of I294. I can possibly arrainge a discounted tow to the surrounding suburbs, but that can be discussed when purchase is being finalized.

2015 Honda CR-V performs poorly in Swedish AWD test [w/video]
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Swedish auto magazine Teknikens Värld has never been afraid to call out automakers when a vehicle fails one of its battery of examinations. Its famous Moose Test recently caught the Porsche Macan out, and a few years ago, there was a protracted argument between Teknikens Värld and Jeep over the performance of a Grand Cherokee in that evaluation.
This time, the 2015 Honda CR-V is raising the magazine's hackles, but it has nothing to do with avoiding a giant mammal. Snow is obviously an issue in Sweden, and Teknikens Värld has a test that challenges all-wheel drive systems in low-traction settings. On a slanted surface, the Swedes put the vehicles' front wheels on rollers with no traction and demands the rears accelerate away. The Honda couldn't do it. Teknikens Värld claims that it initially found the same result last year from the European CR-V, but Honda Sweden put out a software upgrade correcting the behavior in the test. This year, the CUV went back to failing.
While that's the magazine's side, Honda Sweden doesn't see the test as fair. In a statement to Teknikens Värld, the company explains the way the CUV's all-wheel drive system works. It also claims that the test isn't simulating a realistic situation. "In real conditions, regardless of the surface, there is a certain amount of friction always available for both front and rear wheels," the announcement says. "A scenario like the roll test with such a high difference in grip between the front and the rear wheels is highly unlikely."
2015 Honda Fit delayed until June for quality checks
Fri, 23 May 2014If you are looking forward to the launch of the 2015 Honda Fit and can't wait to buy one, we have some bad news. Honda is holding off on sales a little longer to make sure everything is just right. The brand's latest subcompact was originally scheduled to start arriving at dealers this spring, but the introduction was delayed due to issues at Honda's new factory in Celaya, Mexico.
Consumer Reports learned of the delayed launch when the Fit it ordered didn't arrive on time. It contacted Honda and was told that the problem had to do with a "shipping delay nationally." The company was taking "a measured approach" to getting the new models out of the new factory, thus delaying shipment to dealers until June.
Honda spokesperson Steve Kinkade gave a few more details about the situation to Autoblog. He indicated that the factory in Mexico is new and is producing these vehicles for the first time. Therefore, the company is taking the extra time "to do a final verification on quality," said Kinkade. He also confirmed the delay until the second week of June.
Sales incentive growth clustered around brands with few CUVs, trucks
Wed, 24 Sep 2014While it's arguably been around the longest, the dominance of the four-door sedan has been under threat for many years. As a further sign of the hurtin' that SUVs and crossovers have put on today's four-doors, a new report from Automotive News points to the increasing use of incentives by brands reliant on cars and light on CUVs and pickups.
Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and Kia have all been stung by double-digit increases in their incentives-to-transaction price ratio, according to AN, which cites data from TrueCar. Honda's ratio is up 14 percent, while Toyota, VW and Kia are up 18, 15 and 19 percent, respectively.
"Most of the incentive growth we have seen is in product segments with low demand - midsized or large sedans," TrueCar CEO John Krafcik told AN. "As this trend goes on, the brands with three-sedan strategies are going to be in worse shape on incentive spending than the crossover brands."
