1996 Honda Civic Dx Hatchback Silver 86k Original Miles!! on 2040-cars
Bush, Louisiana, United States
|
SELLING MY AWESOME CAR SYLVIA!! Sylvia is a 1996 Honda Civic DX with
only 86k original miles. She is a super peppy fun to drive 5 speed
manual transmission. I love her very much and will be sad to see her go.
WHY I AM SELLING HER: I commute two hours a day 3 to 4 days a week and
just wanted something newer and more comfortable. The biggest downside
to Sylv is that she has NO A/C. It's not broken, she just never had one
because she was born in San Francisco where A/C is not needed and it's kind of a necessity in Louisiana! There is
"air" that blows but it's not air conditioning. It's better than
nothing:) The heat on the other hand works great. I'll go ahead and
tell you everything else about her. PROS: She runs perfectly. I wouldn't
hesitate to drive her across country. I have been driving her to and from work (55 miles each way) several days a week with absolutely no issues. She has hardly any miles and
Civics are known to run forever too. I have had her for about a year and
a half. In that time I have put over 10k miles on her and she has never
been in the shop once except to get new tires and an alignment--two new back tires (only a few weeks old!) and the front ones are in fine shape too! She
gets amazing gas mileage. It costs $30 to fill the tank and that lasts
forever. The back seat folds down and you would not believe how much can
fit in there! I've had her oil changed regularly and her Louisiana safety inspection is
good through October. She is compact and can easily fit into crazy small
parking spaces too:) CONS: No A/C as I mentioned. Also, there is a
small dent on a front fender but it's no biggie. Only one of the car
speakers works but there is a cord that has come unattached that is
probably not a big deal to fix. Someone snapped off her antenna in the
the French Quarter but the coat hanger works fine:) There are a couple
small spots where the paint has chipped on the hood and some rust has
developed so it needs a little touch up there.
I bought Sylvia in New Orleans from a nice guy a year and a half ago. He had driven it from San Fran to use while he went to school at Tulane for a year, but was moving back so didn't need it anymore. It was his uncle's. His uncle had won it in a golf tournament when it was new in 1996 then it stayed in S.F. and was only an occasional driver hence the low miles. The original license plate was "ACE ONE":) She's lucky!! He was all bleary eyed and sad as I drove her away, as I will be when she sells. You will LOVE this car. She is special. |

Ugly Moto makes beautiful motorcycle art [w/video]
Thu, 08 May 2014Ugly Moto is a horrible name for a company that makes such wonderful motorcycle art. The creation of artist Francis Ooi, the company's illustrations focus on some of the iconic racing bikes of the 1960s and 1970s.
The artwork has an elegant simplicity that really makes it pop. It would fit just about anywhere from a home office to the bedroom of a young gearhead. Ooi has completed six illustrations so far covering classic cycles from Honda, Ducati, Yamaha and even Harley-Davidson. According to his site, the Suzuki RGB500 ridden by Barry Sheene will be the next one released. All of the prints are priced at $65 and are limited to 100 copies. They are all about 16.53 inches by 23.58 inches in size.
According to his website, these prints are just a hobby for Ooi and his real career is as the creative director at an ad agency. He creates the illustrations on his Mac, and he estimates that each design with about 800 components and layers takes about a month to complete. You can get idea of the process involved in the time-lapse video below.
Honda Urban SUV concept previews Fit-based crossover
Mon, 14 Jan 2013We've been hearing a lot of rumblings this year about a new crossover based on the Honda Fit, and now we finally get to see what this B-segment CUV might look like. Called the Urban SUV Concept, Honda's new small crossover has made its debut at the Detroit Auto Show, but we'll have to wait until 2014 to see the production version on sale in the US. Honda says the production version of this concept, whatever it will be called, will slot below the CR-V in terms of size and price.
In terms of this concept's styling, there is plenty of the new Honda Accord in its face, and it looks like a more rugged version of the Nissan Juke, as well as a more practical alternative to the Hyundai Veloster. With its short overhangs, the concept measures 169.3 inches in length, making it about eight inches longer than a Fit hatchback and nine inches shorter than the CR-V. Honda confirmed that its new crossover will debut a telematics system for Honda, and it will use one of Honda's new Earth Dreams engines; we previously reported that this engine would be a 1.5-liter I4 paired with a continuously variable transmission.
The next-generation Fit is expected to debut before this new crossover model, and both models will be built at Honda's Celaya, Mexico assembly plant, which is scheduled to open early next year. A new sedan is also expected to round out the lineup of Fit-based products. For more information about this new Urban SUV Concept, scroll down for Honda's official press release.
UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
