1992 Honda Civic Vx, 60 Mpg, Low Miles, Always Garaged, Well Maintained, 2nd Own on 2040-cars
Johnston, Iowa, United States
Hi, I am selling my 1992 Honda Civic with only 135,871 highway miles. It is in great mechanical condition and has been well maintained. It is rare to find a VX with such low miles. The best thing about my VX is that you can average a little over 60 mpg on the highway. I have changed the oil every 3,000 miles. I purchased it last year and have put 35k miles on it. The car drives straight and there is not pull to the right or left on the interstate when you take your hands off the wheel. The suspension is good. The AC blows cold. The tires have 40% tread. The spare tire, jack, and tool kit is included. It has a clear title and has never been in an accident. I have bought and sold motorcycles, cars, and trucks on ebay in the past. I canceled my ebay account 4 years ago when ebay bought paypal. I had 100% feedback and over 1000 feedback. I just signed up again. That is why I have no feedback. I am a pilot and am pretty good at maintaining my vehicles. Please search "journey rider" on a search engine and you can read my blog about a motorcycle trip from Iowa to Argentina that I did 7 years ago. For maintenance I have installed an oem NGK oxygen sensor, distributor cap & rotor, Bosch spark plug wires, NGK spark plugs, wiper blades, air filter, and an Interstate Battery. I installed a Sony CD Player with MP3 port and an oil pan heater. The oem oxygen sensor was $400, so please take that into consideration. The cheap ebay knockoff oxygen sensors do not work and you have to spend $400 at the dealer if you want 60 mpg and not 40 mpg. Almost all of the VX's for sale have oxygen sensors that need to be replaced and with an old sensor the mileage goes down to 40 mpg or worse. As you can see from the pictures my car is in pretty good condition for its age. The paint still shines and has not been faded by the sun. The original owner had the bottom of the car undercoated and that has prevented most areas of the car from rusting. There is no rust in the driver or passenger side door jambs as you can see from the pictures. The only area of the car that has some rust are the rear wheel wells which you can see from the pictures. The car has some dings and blemishes but for the most part is in great condition for its age. There is light hail damage but you can only see it if you are standing a couple feet away from the car. The interior is in great condition. The drivers side seat bolster has a patch which you can see in the pictures. Other then the patch there are no rips, tears, or stains in the cloth seats. Everything on the car works. The only problem I can think of is that when you pressure was the back of the car a little bit of water leaks through the seal on the rear window. It doesn't happen in the rain, only when you pressure wash it. I need a larger car for my job and that is why I am selling my VX, It has served me well. I am only the second owner. The original owner was a university professor. Most of the VX's for sale have questionable maintenance histories. Be cautious of buying one from a dealer or a teenager. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. If there is a picture that you want to see please let me know and I will email it to you. The final bidder must send a $300 paypal deposit within 48 hours. The remainder needs to to paid with in 10 days. The winning bidder is responsible for picking the car up in person or making shipping arrangements. I can pick you up at Des Moines International Airport. If you pay for the car ahead of time I can also drop it off at a shipper's within a 25 mile radius of Des Moines, IA. The car is to be sold "as is." I have done my best to give an accurate description of the car, but I make no guarantees on any of the information in this description. Serious Bidders Only Please! Thank you

Honda to dub Fit-based as HR-V for North America
Sun, 06 Apr 2014You may remember it as the Urban SUV (pictured above) from when it debuted in concept form at the Detroit Auto Show last year, or know it as the Vezel as the production version was unveiled for the Japanese Domestic Market at the 2014 Tokyo Motor Show. But when Honda starts exporting its new Fit-based crossover - or better yet, building it in Mexico for North American consumption - it will be called the HR-V.
This news comes courtesy of Honda enthusiast forum Temple of VTEC. When contacted by Autoblog, Honda spokesmen declined to comment on the veracity of the report, saying only that it would "announce the name in the near future," but the handle fits with what we know about Honda's history with compact crossovers. The previous HR-V (which was not available in the States) was a high-riding, squared-off crossover built between 1999 and 2006 and based on the Fit's predecessor, the Honda Logo.
While the HR-V moniker might not have name recognition in North America, it would in Europe where Honda also hopes its new crossover will find eager customers. It will also fit in nicely below the CR-V that will continue on as the HR-V's larger stablemate.
This is what Honda's new F1 engine will sound like
Fri, 18 Oct 2013It appears that not even the legendary pairing of McLaren and Honda can produce a 2015-regulation Formula One engine that sounds as good as the current V8s. Much like Mercedes-AMG Petronas, McLaren Honda have released a clip of their turbocharged, 1.6-liter V6 ahead of next season, and well, at least to our ears, it's not the sweetest of singers.
We've reported on concerns that the new engines wouldn't sound "right," after years of the high-revving V8s and V10s. The more we're hearing of these new engines, the more reasonable those worries seem. That said, we'll need to wait until we really hear these cars driven in anger to render a final verdict.
Scroll down to view the official press release from Honda and to hear what the future McLaren Honda will sound like when it hits the grid in 2015. For comparison, we've also included some on-board footage of Jenson Button's McLaren's V8 from last season.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
