I am putting up my 97 Honda Accord Wagon thats been my daily driver for the past year. Im purchasing a new car and my wife wont let me keep this one.
5000 miles ago I had new timing belt, water pump, alternator fan belt, power steering belt, all new hoses (can see the tags still on the hoses) new tires. A brand new rack and pinion assembly, new front strut rod bushings, new output shaft seals, new sway bar kit. Also new heater control valve, fresh radiator coolant and brake fluid flush. Lowered on Eibach springs with alignment and camber print out. New light bulbs all around. Passes smog no problem.
Also smoked out headlights with Angel eyes and 6k HID's. Interior wise I installed a full sound system. Its not overbearingly loud but has some really good highs and enough bass. I dont like the loud obnoxious bass. Pioneer head unit with blue tooth and usb charging. Blue tooth mic hooked on upper left pillon for hands free calling. 4 kenwood 3 way speakers powered by 4 channel amp hidden under passenger seat. Infiinity soundlink 10' powered sub with manual control located under dash. Pioneer tweeters. The whole system is inconspicuously wired so nothings hanging out and about. Sunroof also works 100% with no leaks.
I have receipts for all this labor and parts and its over 3 grand. Pretty much all preventative maintenance to make sure this thing lasts, dont see enough wagons these days.
Power locks and power windows (new motor in driver window) automatic (wish it was stick). Interior is very clean for its age IMO.
Full Disclosure:
Cruise control button lights up but doesn't activate. Not sure if its a fuse or something else. Does not effect day to day driving.
Drivers side door lock takes a slight pull on the handle and push on the lock. Still locks all other doors in the process. The auto locks on the door still unlocks all the car locks but not the drivers. Cant figure out why.
No abnormal fade or sun spots in paint but there is little nicks here and there hey its a 97 lol
New belts squeal for a second on start up fade after a few seconds, not a big deal.
No idea on gas mileage I just know I get about 325-50 miles per tank.
I have new oil and filter in hand ready to be changed prior to exchange.
I am sure there is something I am missing but tried to give as much info as I could think off my head. Any questions feel free to email. Will take cash, check, money order. Will work with shipping or local pickup hell if your reasonably close Ill bring it to you.

How the Ram Multifunction Tailgate compares to Ford, GMC, Honda
Wed, Feb 6 2019Ram just announced its Multifunction Tailgate — a descriptive if not very creative name. It's an asymmetrical barn-door arrangement, which can both fold down like a conventional tailgate or swing open like a gate. There's a new bed step, but unlike Ford or GM, the step isn't part of the tailgate itself. Rather, it kicks out from under the bumper (as opposed to out from under the driver's side of the rear bumper in its previous incarnation). So let's just focus on the tailgate functionality. A video of the Ram Multifunction Tailgate in action is above. For one, either of the swinging tailgate sections can be opened independently. They open to a full 88 degrees. In conventional flip-down mode, the tailgate works just like a normal one, too, with a 2,000-pound rating. The bottom line is that while it gives a variety of types of access to the load area, it doesn't "do" anything else. It's a $995 option on any Ram 1500. Its closest analogue is the Honda Ridgeline, which works basically the same way, but on that truck the tailgate swings as one piece. And the Honda's load rating isn't as hefty as the Ram's tailgate: 300 pounds. As Honda says, that's sufficient to hold the weight of the part of an ATV hanging out of the bed, or something similar, but it's a lighter-duty unit (and a lighter-duty truck) than the Ram's overall. Let's also get Ford's one-trick tailgate out of the way before comparing to the more analogous, and complicated, GM MultiPro. A bit of trivia: Ford's optional Tailgate Step is actually designed and supplied by Multimatic, better known as the outfit that builds the Ford GT and produces the DSSV spool-valve shocks. This step has been available for years. It pulls out of the top edge of the tailgate when the tailgate is lowered, deploying a single step. A separate handle pulls out from beside the step and flips up, giving a handhold. While it was initially (and infamously) mocked by competitors, with load floor heights as high as they are it's better than toting around a stepstool. It's currently a $375 standalone option. Now we get to the GMC MultiPro tailgate, the most complicated and multi-functioned around. It's essentially a tailgate within a tailgate, with a fold-out stopper that deploys from the inner tailgate. This gives it several functions depending on the position of all the parts. It can still be used like a normal tailgate, dropping down at the push of a button or using the key fob.
Honda to import Euro market Civic hatch to America
Thu, Mar 19 2015If you look at the Civic sedan Honda offers in America and look longingly at the hatchback version it sells in Europe, we've got good news. The latest word has it that the Japanese automaker will start offering the Euro-spec hatch in North America. The reason, however, may surprise you. According to Nikkei Asian Review, Honda wants to start selling the Civic hatchback in America less because it thinks that's the model Americans want, and more because it has excess capacity at its plant in the UK. Bringing it to the US would also give Honda an entry against the Volkswagen Golf and other competitors. Honda's plant in Swindon, England, is its sole assembly location in Europe, where the company's market share has dropped to a reported one percent. That doesn't mean Honda is giving up on the European market and its strong currencies, but with models like the HR-V to be manufactured in Mexico and the new Fit/Jazz to be imported from Japan, the Swindon plant doesn't have enough vehicles to produce to make use of its annual capacity of 250,000 vehicles. Producing 30,000-40,000 Civic hatchbacks each year for North America would help pick up some of the slack, but not all of it. It would also only represent a small fraction of the number of Civic sedans Honda moves here. Last year Honda sold over 325,000 Civics in America and over 336,000 the year before, making the Civic its second- or third-most popular model here after the Accord and closely positioned with the CR-V crossover. The reported number of Civic hatchbacks it would sell here wouldn't even keep up with the smaller Fit, but would far overshadow the CR-Z hybrid hatchback. The bigger question that performance enthusiasts will be asking is: What does this mean for the prospects of getting the new Type R hot hatch over here? Revealed in production form at the Geneva show earlier this month, the new Civic Type R is based on the European hatchback in question. Prior to the emergence of this report, the official line was that we wouldn't get the new performance model because its bodystyle isn't offered here altogether, and that our version would more likely be based on the sedan. If the five-door model makes its way here, though, we can't help but wonder if the Type R might not follow close behind. Reached for comment, Honda's US office didn't have anything official to add, but we'll be watching this development closely to see how it plays out. Related Video:
2013 Honda Civic
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Lather, Rinse, Repeat
On some level, it's hard to blame Honda for the strategy it took with its new-for-2012 Civic. Executives looked at the key players on the market as the model was being developed, soaked in the growing global economic malaise, and decided that if they wanted to make decent money on their small car, they'd have to find creative ways to take cost out of its build. In light of the financial crisis, consumers and critics would surely understand some belt-tightening in order to secure the company's legendary reliability, resale value and ease-of-use, right?
So Honda took a pass on expensive new technology - more complex transmissions, forced induction, active aero, and so on. And it also substituted in some cheaper interior materials, skimped on sound deadening, creature comforts and found lots of little ways to save money. Surely in a segment where the frankly ancient and moth-eaten Toyota Corolla has consistently ranked among the sales leaders, nobody would care, eh?
