2012 Honda Accord EX-L Coupe 2-Door 3.5L 6 Speed Manual Trans w/Leather
Additional photographs at the bottom of the listing.

This coupe is practically, as new, it still has the new car smell and in like new mechanical condition.  Purchased in August 2012, it is my go south car for the winter. It has never seen snow and always garaged and covered with the included Honda Accord Full Car cover. Mechanically she is flawless.  Mobil 1 ever since the first oil change at around 1K Miles. Oil is usually time change with 80-90% oil life remaining and I only use OEM Honda Parts. Oil service due this month and tire rotation will be accomplished before buyer takes delivery. Brakes are excellent and flawless.  All interior comfort features function. The independently controlled heat and cooling work flawlessly. The fuel economy is exceptional for a car this size, she has only had 16 stops at the gas station averaging around 34MPG at legal highway speeds and gets around 29MPG around town using Sunoco 93 Octane fuel(not required but always used). It actually does better than my 07' Civic Si. You will not find a more stunning example of this car anywhere on eBay. Full description of factory equipment at the end of this listing. The full Honda bumper to bumper warranty is in effect till 09/2015.  That's 36 Months or 36,000 Miles, whichever comes first.

When this Accord Coupe was purchased, several options, I felt necessary, were installed.

Suspension and Tires:

Having owned a 2009 Coupe, always appreciated the fine mix of comfort and performance but for serious highway cruising I always felt the suspension was lacking. Toss the Accord coupe around and it will push into corners, which is to be expected from a front-wheel driver weighing in at 3,400 pounds and the factory installed all-season tires don't help.

The Honda Factory Performance (HFP) Suspension Package. Before taking delivery, the dealer installed the HFP struts, revised springs and rear control arms. Mated to the new suspension were new wheels and shoes. Not only are the HFP wheels attractive, especially with the coupe's Polished Metal Metallic paint, but functionally permitted the installation of aggressive low profile 245/40ZR19s Michelin's Pilot Super Sport Max Performance Summer Tires. I can't say enough about these tires but have included a short Michelin propaganda note at the bottom of the listing. This alone with an expert 4 wheel laser alignment (Specs Included) was $5,012.10 and is the best performance enhancement you can make to this coupe. Coupled with the last year of the Double Wishbone Front Suspension(12' last year, no longer available) and the Multi-Link Rear Suspension turns this coupe into a drama free highway cruiser comfortable at any speed. Most stunning Accord Coupe anywhere, a conversation piece no matter where I stop.

Appearance:

This 2012 Accord Coupe has a more aerodynamic front fascia. The fog lights are set into deeper scallops and a larger lower air intake and a bolder grill. At the rear, the taillights are more chiseled, their sides getting a protruding ridge that follow the body character line. Even though the updates enhance this coupes' handsomeness, I had the dealer install appearance package that really brings out her character. You just can not beat the Honda Factory upgrade components, The Body Side Molding, Molded Side Spoilers, Front Under Spoiler and Rear Under Spoiler establish a unique and aggressive appearance package all color matched to the beautiful factory Polished Metal Metallic paint. Well worth the investment of $2,752.14 and all components are warranted for the same factory period.

Overall Driving Experience:

This coupe is an absolute joy to drive. The heated front buckets are firm, logging several 12 hour days in the coupe were effortless. There's a surprising amount of room in the back seat for two average-size adults. The added Honda Interior Illumination Kit (Blue) makes driving through the night very comfortable. The Hands Free Bluetooth interface works flawlessly allowing you to conduct a conversation while on the highway.

The engine spools quickly and the throttle response is immediate from just about anywhere in the RPM band. As the tachometer needle passes 4,900 rpm, the VTEC transitions to a high-lift, long-duration intake-cam profile for exceptional power at high-rpm. No wonder Honda’s 3.5L V-6 earned its fourth Ward’s 10 Best Engines trophy since 2005. The motor is coupled to the Honda Close-Ratio ultra slick 6-Speed Manual transmission.  Going up and down the gears is a cinch with the hydraulically assisted clutch. The upgraded suspension lowers the entire car and with the Michelin Super Sport rubber provides unrivaled handling  performance for a car in this class. She feels decidedly comfortable at any speed without the hint of floating or diving. Quiet, sleek, fast, powerful, beautiful are just some of the adjectives that come to mind.  You will not be disappointed.

  • SPORT SUSPENSION KIT $884.40

Emissions and Mechanical Inspection:

This automobile has just been inspected by a Pennsylvania (PA) State Licensed Authority.  PA emissions and mechanical inspection are good through August 2015.

The Fine Print:

No road rash however on the front bumper there is a barely perceptible mark as if someone walked by and got to close. The SHQ Photos at the end of the listing allow you to zoom in considerably, just click on the photo.  On the rear bumper at the license depression there is a minor scrape, also almost imperceptible. No matter where I park, she always draws a crowd.

Questions and Bidding:

A little about myself; I am an adult driver in my early fifties and have owned Hondas for quite some time.  Currently have a red 2012 Civic, I track a 2008 S2000CR, my daily driver is a 2007 CivicSi and my wife has her 2009 HondaPilotEXL. I love these cars, they are everything this manufacturer advertises, which I can't say for most. I take my cars and driving seriously, trust you do as well.  All my vehicles are maintained, regardless of expense, to factory specifications or better using only Honda OEM parts. If service is required beyond routine fluid and filter changes, the cars return to the dealer.

Verifiable funds will be transferred at time of sale to my credit union, no exceptions. Once accomplished, I will FedEx you the signed title or present in person if you take delivery directly. There are many shipping providers but generally rail is the way to go.

I have been on eBay for 14 Years now with an exceptional feedback rating.  I have in that time purchased and sold many cars without incident. If you would like the vehicle inspected, I will accommodate your request.

2016: The year we talked about autonomy a bunch | Autoblog Podcast #497

Thu, Dec 22 2016

This week on the Autoblog Podcast, Mike Austin and David Gluckman take a look back at one of the biggest topics of 2016: autonomous driving. The thing is, there was a lot of news about autonomous driving, but not much in the way of autonomous cars you can buy. They also talk about what they've been driving lately - there was a good turbocharged compact car and a not-so-good turbocharged compact car. And then we round out the year with a quick Spend My Money. The podcast will take a break next week, but we'll be back in the new year with reports from CES and the 2017 Detroit Auto Show. And we're lining up some fun guests for future recordings. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want buying advice of your very own, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com. (If you record audio of a question with your phone and get it to us, you could hear your very own voice on the podcast. Neat, right?) And please send trivia questions!

2016 Honda HR-V scores class-leading 35 mpg

Mon, Jan 19 2015

Smaller cars generally net better fuel economy ratings, and while crossovers aren't generally as efficient as hatchbacks and small sedans, smaller crossovers are getting better EPA ratings all the time. The latest to join the pack is the new 2016 Honda HR-V. The US Environmental Protection Agency has just released its ratings for the littlest Honda crossover, and the figures are pretty impressive. In front-wheel-drive form with the optional continuously variable transmission, the HR-V is rated at 28 miles per gallon in the city, 35 on the highway and 31 combined. Those figures make it the most economical conventionally powered SUV on the market. (The EPA doesn't distinguish between truck-based sport-utes and car-based crossovers) Among crossovers, the FWD HR-V outperforms the Nissan Juke, Kia Soul, Chevrolet Trax, Buick Encore... the whole lot. Only the Mazda CX-5 matches it on the highway rating, which is noteworthy since it's a much bigger vehicle. Along with the forthcoming Fiat 500X and Jeep Renegade, Mazda's nearly here CX-3 hasn't been rated yet (we predict it will score better than the HR-V, if only to improve on the fuel economy ratings of its larger CX-5 counterpart). Of course, there are hybrids that get better ratings than the Honda, but comparing a hybrid to a conventional vehicle is like comparing apples to electrically charged oranges. Naturally, the picture changes a bit if you go for all-wheel drive or the available six-speed manual. In AWD spec (only available with the CVT), the HR-V gets 27 city, 32 highway and 29 combined. The front-driver with the six-speed suffers a worse fate at 25 city, 34 highway and 28 combined. No matter which way you slice it, of course, the Fit hatchback upon which the HR-V is based, with its CVT hooked up to a smaller engine and with less weight to motivate, still sips fuel more lightly than the HR-V. But as far as crossovers go, Honda's new HR-V is looking pretty frugal. Featured Gallery 2016 Honda HR-V View 25 Photos News Source: EPAImage Credit: Honda Green Honda Crossover honda hr-v

Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.
