Avoid dealer hassle, nonsensical add-ons and ridiculous fees. 

Depending on the state in which you are resident, you may also benefit from much lower sales tax by purchasing a vehicle from a private seller. When I purchased this vehicle last year (as a resident of Illinois) from a private seller, I paid only $90 in sales tax. Please, check your Secretary of State's office for further details.

I am a private owner who wants to provide you a simple, honest and forthright purchasing experience. I promise - that unlike most other internet vehicle sellers (particularly dealers) - I am very thorough and straightforward. Nevertheless, if you have any questions or concerns, I will do my very best to oblige promptly and personally. 

This is a great car. It will be missed for its stellar economy, massive utility, solid reliability and attractiveness. However, I have purchased a Toyota/Scion xA and no longer need the Fit.

This is the "Sport" model with aerodynamic body parts, aluminum wheels, fog lights, high end (i.e., loud and clear) stereo system and auxiliary audio port.

Clutch is in optimal operational condition, and all brakes have a large amount of life in friction materials.

Shocks/struts and springs are in excellent condition.

Car accelerates and brakes straight and true.  

Accessory drive belt in excellent condition.

Maintenance free timing chain, no belt, so no worries.

No mechanical fluid leaks or motor oil burn.

No leaks when run through automatic car wash or blasted with hose. 

The car does not include a paper owner's manual. The previous owner could not locate it when I purchased the car. I do, however, have the PDF version for those who are interested.

2 original and fully operational keys/key fobs included.

I have not allowed any smoking or pets in the car; but I cannot vouch for previous owners. The interior is, notwithstanding, in excellent condition considering the mileage/age. Photos speak for themselves.

The cargo capacity is enormous. Honda engineers nailed this aspect in spades with seating that converts to every angle and position imaginable, affording outstanding cargo/troop hauling capability. The rear seat backs recline; and even the front seat backs recline all the way down to the rear seat bottoms, resulting in an extended lounge that would rival that in a Maybach. Feel free to google it. It's really quite astonishing. I could fit an adult-sized bicycle behind the front seats just by lifting up the seat bottoms of the rear seats.

Maintenance/service records included only for the duration of my own ownership. Please, see bullet points below. I haven't any tangible evidence of prior owner maintenance/service other than the car's outstanding mechanical condition. It is quite clear that this car was well maintained and is prepared for its run to a half-million miles or more.

All required maintenance/service just recently performed. All bases have been covered, all tees crossed and all eyes dotted. Absolutely no maintenance/service action will be required by the purchaser. Details with odometer readings and dates are available upon request and will be included with sale. Here is a summary with some additional information thrown in for good measure:
  

-- 37 MPG COMBINED HWY/CITY (Personally observed fuel economy. Mind you, I drive conservatively and baby the throttle as if there was an egg beneath the accelerator pedal) 
-- 41 MPG (high) / 34 MPG (low) (Again, personally observed. Individual results will vary depending primarily on driving habit and style)
-- 4 new tires (Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum with approximately 2,000 miles on them)
-- front end alignment after new tires
-- fresh motor oil and filter (Pennzoil dino with Mobil 1 filter)
-- fresh gear oil (Honda Genuine)
-- new air filter (Honda Genuine)
-- fresh coolant (Honda Genuine - radiator, engine block and reservoir)
-- new spark plugs (OEM NGK iridium)
-- valve lash recently checked and adjusted to spec.
-- Japanese center console with telescoping armrest, storage box and pull-out rear cupholders
-- Acura RSX aluminum shift knob
-- professional window tint (I'm guessing around 35% light transmission [confirmed legal in Illinois]. Completed before I purchased. See photos)
-- exterior freshly detailed with Mothers clay and Zymol cleaner wax by yours truly
-- interior also freshly detailed
-- new wiper blades
-- all lights and lighting indicators, driving and accessory, perfectly operational
-- only approximately 50 miles on fresh and full tank of gas


If you have not already, I want to encourage anyone who has read this far to further research this car, as I have not described every specification (e.g., power windows, locks, CD player, AC, cruise, tilt, etc.), only that which I feel is critical to the sale of this vehicle or that which I would want to know if I were browsing the market for a used automobile. Additional information is plentiful with the help of a google search.
 

Buyer is fully responsible for shipping/delivery or pick-up of this car.

For payment I accept certified cashier's check or money order. Certified cashier's check or money order must clear my bank before buyer takes delivery and title. Note, upon my receipt of certified cashier's check or money order, it may take upwards of 2-3 business days to clear. Once certified cashier's check or money order clears, title may either be mailed or personally handed over to buyer upon personal receipt of vehicle. Should buyer hire shipping service, the title will not be delivered by vehicle carrier.  If buyer hires shipping service, the title and any other pertinent document(s) will be mailed via USPS, as it is not the carrier's responsibility to handle such matters. Please, click "Shipping and payments" tab for additional transaction details.

$500 Paypal deposit required within 24 hours of listing close. Remaining balance due within 7 business days of listing close.

The "Auto Check" report listed herein for this vehicle shows a loan/lease period. This does not pertain to this sale; it pertains to a previous owner. I fully own this vehicle. Title is in my hands and ready for immediate transfer once purchase price has been paid in full.

The vehicle described within this listing will be purchased by the buyer without any warranty or guarantee, expressed or implied by the seller (i.e., me).

In order to expedite the transaction, buyer is encouraged to contact the seller through Ebay messaging immediately after listing close. Thank you for your interest.

2014 Honda Ridgeline keeps on truckin' with new special edition model

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Like many smaller trucks, the Honda Ridgeline has been left to stagnate on the market for far too many years. With production of the current model reportedly winding down later next year before production of the next-gen model picks up in 2016, Honda is sending the 2014 Ridgeline out with some style courtesy of a new Special Edition trim level.
The new Ridgeline SE essentially adds cues from the Ridgeline Sport to the luxurious RTL trim level. The means features like black-trimmed 18-inch alloys and matching interior trim arrives as a no-cost option. This new model carries the same starting price as the RTL at $37,505 (*not including $830 for destination), and all other trim level pricing is carried over unchanged from the 2013 model year. The new SE model won't be available until November, and it is not pictured in the image galleries (all of which seem to be identical to previous model years).
Speaking of carryover products, Honda has also released pricing for the unchanged 2014 Pilot and 2014 Acura TL, which will continue to be priced from $29,670 and $36,030, respectively (Acura's destination charge is $890). Scroll down for press releases on the 2014 Ridgeline, Pilot and TL.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.

GoPro learned to hoop from Meadowlark Lemon

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Wait, wait, wait. We promise that there's something to do with cars in this story. Really, there is. It also, though, features some basketball antics. And the entire thing is possible thanks to the magic that is the GoPro.
Strategically situated, the little cameras capture David Kalb, a master when it comes to making trick basketball shots. This time, he's showing just what he can do when launching balls through the sunroof of a Honda Civic. That includes dribbling and sinking a layup (although we think he may have traveled when driving to the net).
Take a look below for the video, and let us know what you think of Kalb's tricks down in Comments.
