This is a NO RESERVE listing.
This is my 1997 Acura 2.2CL Premium with the rare 5-speed manual transmission. The timing belt and water pump have recently been replaced along with other major service at the Acura dealer. This Acura is in AMAZING, OUTSTANDING, INCREDIBLE condition. You cannot believe how pristine and gorgeous this car is for the age and mileage. It is superb in every way- this car is a true find. Every so often you will come across a higher-mileage car like this that is in impeccable, pristine and incredible condition. These cars are incredibly rare. To find an owner who is willing to keep a car in superb, near-perfect condition for this long is amazing. If someone told you this car had 20,000 miles you would believe it. I cannot overemphasize how superb the condition of this car is. This has to be the nicest 2.2CL for sale anywhere in the country, regardless of mileage. The 2.2CL is in my opinion, one of the best products the Honda Motor Company made- it is a superb combination of bulletproof reliability, luxury and economy (34mpg highway). This car has the reliability of its cousin and platform-mate, the Honda Accord. It has superb luxury and amenities of leather and all power options and it is a very comfortable car. It also has outstanding fuel economy from its 2.2L VTEC 4-cylinder engine and 5-speed manual transmission. This car has everything going for it. I don't know where you would ever find a cleaner, better-kept example of this car. This car is in near time-capsule condition; it is truly outstanding. The paint and body are excellent. The paint appears to be original with no known accidents. The body is straight, clean, rust-free (ZERO RUST) and extremely clean in every way. Even the aluminum wheels are in superb shape and the tires are nearly new. The exterior and body of this car are just superb- you cannot imagine how a 1997 car could have been this well-preserved. The interior of this Acura looks basically like it did when it was new. There is practically no sign of use or wear in the interior at all. The leather seats are excellent, the carpets look new and the upholstery and switchgear is clean and excellent. There is no wear on the radio buttons, climate control buttons, shift knob or steering wheel. Every interior surface, switch and button looks like new. Again, I cannot imagine how the interior of a 1997 car could ever look any better. This car runs and drives perfectly. It has none of the typical high-mileage squeaks, rattles or clunks. This car is TIGHT, solid and drives just like a new vehicle. It is quiet, smooth and powerful. The engine, transmission, clutch, brakes, and suspension are all superb. There are zero known mechanical or electrical problems- everything on this car works just like it should. There are no warning lights illuminated. This is a totally reliable and dependable vehicle in every way. I wouldn't hesitate to jump in this car and drive to California and back. All of the power options and equipment are working- the power moonroof, power windows, power locks, cruise control, climate control and A/C, radio and CD player- all are working perfectly. I have a receipt from our local Acura dealer for a recent service which included the timing belt, water pump, drive belts, cooling system service, spark plugs and 4-wheel alignment for a total service bill of over $1300. This car needs NO known mechanical work and it is totally up-to-date on service and ready for another couple hundred thousand miles of driving. I see no reason this car couldn't make it to 400,000 or even 500,000 miles given the condition it has been kept in so far. This car looks better and is in better condition than most 3 year old cars I see with 40,000 miles. This Acura has the following equipment and options:
I have the original books and manuals for the car as well. This is a 1997 car and as such it is not brand new. Please expect normal signs of wear and use consistent with the age of the car. Here is a complete list of every known defect in the car, no matter how small: there are a few dings along the passenger side and on the passenger door (garage wear), the front and rear bumpers appear to have been repainted (correctly) due to stone nicks, etc. There is a tiny spot of wear on the side bolster of the driver's leather seat. There is a very minor rattle (heat shield?) and maybe the tiniest leak in the exhaust. You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. Alternatively you can have this car shipped, please call Angels Moving Autos at 530-245-0481 for a shipping quote. This car is kept in my garage in Willoughby, OH. Questions, please email me or call/text me at 440-339-4341. |

2017 Acura NSX | 2017 Autoblog Technology of the Year Finalist
Tue, Jan 24 2017Like its iconic predecessor, the second-generation Acura NSX blazes trails. The old NSX proved that you could get reliability and daily use from an exotic car, and subsequently changed the automotive world. Acura's engineers pushed in a new direction for the prodigal successor: technology. And so the new NSX sets a new bar in the way technology is used to achieve speed. The highlight here is the Sport Hybrid SH-AWD system, which supplements the 500-horsepower twin-turbo V6 with three electric motors, making 573 peak ponies. The two front motors each act on a front wheel, doing all kinds of tricks to help the car corner faster, brake harder, and accelerate like the proverbial cannon shot. They help make the NSX more stable at high speed, and let you sneak up on unsuspecting video producers at low speed. Then there's the third motor sandwiched between the engine and nine-speed transmission, which never lets a shift go by without filling in the milliseconds with velvety torque. If the all-wheel-drive hybrid supercar sounds familiar, yes, Porsche did something similar with the 918 Spyder. But even when you load the options on the NSX (try not to, we dare you), it's never more than a fifth the price of the Porsche. Then there are the little details, like a new form of casting Honda engineers developed for the NSX's crash structure. Or the three-dimensional bend to the A-pillar and roof rail that makes it less obstructive to the driver and also stronger. Even the Marysville, Ohio factory gets some credit here, with 12 patents filed relating to the assembly process. There's only so much a driver can do with two hands and two feet. The NSX takes your inputs and figures out how to maximize the contribution from each individual wheel. This is a car that harnesses all the greatness of technology to change what's possible in a sports car.Related Video: 2017 Acura NSX | First Drive
Acura MDX teaser photos show an upscale interior
Fri, Oct 9 2020After teasing us with an exterior image of the fourth-generation Acura MDX a week ago, Acura has now followed up with images of the interior. The exterior teaser was done up in "Tron" style, but these interior shots go beyond outlines to reveal some details that are much less obscured. Acura promises the MDX will be the "most premium and performance-focused" version of the SUV yet and has earned "elevated status" as the brand's flagship. (Only about 1,000 of the RLX were sold in North America last year, vs. 52,000 of the MDX, so it seems the big sedan got demoted as flagship. Aw.) The MDX's instrument panel is lower and wider, Acura says, and the interior is trimmed out in real open-pore wood. The leather dash is "hand-wrapped" with French seams. All three rows of seating surfaces are quilted, with perforations done in a gradated design, and there is contrasting piping and stitching. Massaging front seats add to the premium experience. Acura promises a variety of new technologies in the cabin, including what it calls the Acura Precision Cockpit, along with a mighty wide-looking HD infotainment screen and Acura's dynamic ELS Studio 3D sound system with 25 speakers. (Where do they put them all?) After Acura did great things with the RDX and the new 2021 TLX, we expect the MDX redesign will follow suit in reinvigorating the brand. The MDX will likely offer the same engines as in the TLX: a 272-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder as the base engine, and a 355-horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine as an option. But we should know more about all of the above when the prototype Acura MDX — albeit a very-near-production prototype — will be revealed next Wednesday, Oct. 14. Related Video:
Acura doesn't have plans for a new MDX hybrid
Tue, Dec 8 2020Besides an entirely new platform, suspension, and a turbocharged Type S model coming soon, the 2022 Acura MDX is new in another way: it seems to be losing its hybrid trim level. During a media roundtable, Acura's global development lead confirmed that there are no plans for a hybrid version of the new MDX. Part of the reason for the lack of a hybrid for the new MDX is the aforementioned Type S model. The Acura development lead noted that the outgoing MDX Sport Hybrid is the current sporty, high-output version of the crossover. That mantle is now being taken over by the Type S with its turbocharged 3.0-liter V6. The new Type S makes 355 horsepower and 355 pound-feet of torque, which also represents a large power increase over the Sport Hybrid's 321 horsepower and 289 pound-feet. The Type S won't be able to do everything the Sport Hybrid could do, though. While official fuel economy numbers haven't been revealed, we're confident the Type S won't be able to hit the 27 mpg combined of the hybrid. The Sport Hybrid's powertrain was also quite interesting, as it combined its 3.0-liter naturally aspirated V6 with a trio of electric motors. A single motor worked in conjunction with the engine to power the front wheels, and one motor each powered the rear wheels and provided torque vectoring. It was sort of like a backwards NSX. While Acura doesn't have plans for a hybrid right now, it is possible the brand could change its mind. And in an ever electrifying world, it would be surprising if we never saw a hybrid MDX return.
