Up for auction is a 1986 Honda Accord with 35K original One-Owner miles, automatic transmission. This gem is a "lady-owned," well maintained vehicle that has spent most of its life garaged. It was used to drive short distances to work and around town on weekends. No long-haul road trips. In recent years, with work-on-internet, it has been driven only on weekends. 


The car has never been in an accident, has never had any major mechanical malfunctions, and has had routine maintenance and inspections. With normal use, there have been replacement batteries, bulbs, wiper blades, brake pads, etc., but nothing beyond that. There are no discernible leaks; not a single spot on the concrete floor of the garage.

The ONLY thing missing is: the trunk carpet. I removed it at a car wash, to vacuum it, and after cleaning the trunk, I drove away -- without the carpet! I didn't discover it missing until a day later . . . yes, I went back, but it was gone. In its place I have used a 4 x 5 grey synthetic rug, which fits well and protects the inside. The original white trunk liner remains, and underneath that is the original, unused, donut spare tire, and original jack and lug wrench.

NEW PARTS: There is a brand new battery (May 2013); all four tires are Michelin Radial Weatherwise Sport tires, 185/70 R13, purchased last year, with practically no wear -- less than 200 miles.

A NEW WATER PUMP and TIMING BELT, new in original packaging, not installed, are included with the car, (see photo), with original receipt, and are ready for installation by buyer. Receipts are included, and shown in photos.

Also included is a CD Repair Manual for Honda Accords 1986-1989. This is a pdf document with diagrams and instructions for any and all possible maintenance and repairs.

A passenger-side rear-view mirror has been added, which is adjustable from inside.

The AC, heat, defrosters, wipers, lights, original AM/FM radio and cassette player work fine.

Interior is all original, and is in fine condition. Seats, carpet, and all interior upholstery are soft and clean, no stains or rips. This has been a SMOKE-FREE, PET-FREE car for all its life.

NOTE: I am not a mechanic, and though I think it runs well, it could use a tune-up and may have issues I am not aware of. It's a very zippy little car to drive, with a low center of gravity, and handles like a sportscar. Gas mileage is excellent -- 30 mpg or better. 

As pictured, the flaws to this Accord are minimal: Small dimples and dings, mainly on the hood and rear fenders. The amount of rust is so tiny it was difficult to show in photos -- there are three approximately nickel-sized rust spots, shown in several of the photos. There is a small scrape on the right rear fender, by the tail light, a small dent in the left rear fender, and some dimples on the hood. None of these is deep enough to have progressed to rust. Most difficult to show in photos are extremely fine, spider-web-like lines beneath the finish, purely cosmetic -- see close-up photo near bottom of pictures. I will be posting additional photos by Monday, May 20.

The paint is all original. I was planning to give the whole car a going-over with rubbing compound and paste wax, which I think would do away with superficial scratches, but decided to leave that to the buyer, who may feel it's not needed.

Please refer to photos for details!!

2016 Honda Pilot earns IIHS Top Safety Pick+ score

Fri, Aug 21 2015

The 2016 Honda Pilot earned a Top Safety Pick+ rating after tests by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The crossover scored the agency's top Good score in all five evaluations, including the often tricky small-overlap frontal crash. The latest results give the 2016 Pilot the highest possible results from both NCAP and IIHS. In the small-overlap frontal crash, there were only four inches of intrusion in the passenger compartment, and the airbags did their job of protecting the dummy's head. Sensors showed a low risk of significant injuries. In comparison, the IIHS gave the 2015 Pilot Good scores in four tests, but the CUV had a Poor rating, the agency's lowest, in the small-overlap test. The optional Honda Sensing suite of safety functions put the Pilot over the top for the + score, and the tech earned a superior rating from the IIHS. The system combines a windshield-mounted camera and radar behind the grille and is available on the EX trim and above. It includes collision mitigating braking, a forward collision warning, lane keeping assist, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and road departure mitigation.

This IIHS distinction includes a top rating of GOOD in five IIHS crash test modes including a top score of GOOD in the Insurance Institute's stringent small overlap frontal crash test.

Bonkers Honda Vezel headlines Mugen's lineup at Tokyo Auto Salon

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Japanese automakers and their tuning divisions have descended upon the Makuhari Messe in Chiba City for the 2014 Tokyo Auto Salon. And for Honda, it's all about Mugen.
Honda's Japanese Domestic Market tuning division brought a series of modified concepts and racing cars to the salon this year, including the CR-Z hybrid touring car it fields in the Super GT series, the SF13 single-seater from the Super Formula series as well as customized versions of the Fit, Odyssey and N-WGN. But the prize for the most outrageous of them all surely goes to the modified Vezel you see above.
Modeled on Honda's new Fit-based crossover, the Mugen Vezel Concept goes further than the versions we've seen until now. It features a bonkers body kit, dual exhaust, brake upgrade, sport suspension, intricate 20-inch alloy wheels and an upgraded interior. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you're feeling still interested, you can check it out in the gallery above, along with the announcement below and the specs on Mugen's website.
