Clean Title 1 Owner -b16a, Limited Slip Dif,ctr Cams/springs,autopower Roll Bar on 2040-cars
Hamilton, Ohio, United States
Condition: Clean title and extremely clean inside and out. It has a rust free body and even the brake lines running to the rear are still shiny etc.
The car had been lightly backed into and creased the RF fender. It was later scraped on the LF fender and front bumper fascia (also took off a 1/2" chip of paint on the drivers mirror that was touched up). All replacements were with OEM Honda parts and professionally painted with premium paint. The front bumper was very recently replaced with an OEM Honda part and professionally painted with premium paints and clear coats. All other body panels are original paint etc. A few very small dings due to storage damage can be found. See pictures of the small gouges on the rear bumper (drivers side)...they were touched up but are noticeable up close. The carbon fiber hood was painted to match and has hood pins in place for safety (a few very minor cracks were created when installing the hood pins but have not changed in 15 years). The window tinting was just professionally removed. Meticulously maintained! Mobil 1 was used exclusively with either Honda or Mobil 1 oil filters only. Oil level has never dropped between changes. New timing belt, water pump, drive belts installed. Fresh valve adjustment and the K&N air filter has just been cleaned, dried, oiled and re-installed. Motul RBF (Racing Brake Fluid) has been changed regularly. Cam seal had a slight leak and was just repaired. CV boots were replaced 10,000 miles ago. Clutch was replaced 15,000 miles ago. A/C is nice and cold. The factory windshield was replaced 8,000 miles ago. There was one very small rock chip in the middle of the passenger side since but it has been professionally repaired so it will not spread. Suspension is firm but not at all bouncy. Note:The Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 ultra high performance summer tires are showing their age with some cracking(due to being stored so much) and have 1/8" tread life remaining (see pictures).

History: I purchased the vehicle new in 1996 from Bellevue Honda in Bellevue (Omaha), Nebraska. The car was always garaged in the snow belt and rarely driven in winter. I kept the underside washed all the time when/if it was exposed to snow. I then lived in Phoenix, AZ for 5 years (no rust obviously) and finally here in SW Ohio but only drove it a few times in snow here as well. The car was pictured in Sport Compact Car magazine as it was the cover vehicle for the Honda Hybrid web page for a few months in 1998. It has had several upgrades since then as you can tell from the lists above. The engine had just over 33,000 kilometers on it when installed and the car had 40,000 miles. I have never drag raced the car. I did run the car on Laguna Seca with street legal tires and Honda OEM pads. Fast lap was 1 minute 52 seconds and that was prior to limited slip being installed. I also had the pleasure of driving it to and in performance driving schools at Gingerman Raceway, Phoenix International (road course), Buttonwillow, Willow Springs, Second Creek Raceway (no longer exists in Colorado), Brainerd International and the Las Vegas Speedway (road course). On street tires I would average 38MPG at 75MPH. Car comes with it's 2 original keys and an Alpine remote. Unfortunately I have not been be really using this car for the purpose it was built for quite a few years. As you can see, no cheap parts were ever put on this car. I was even married in it! |

2014 Honda Odyssey gets some tidy tweaks [w/video]
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Here in New York, Honda is offering up a refreshed version of its well-liked Odyssey minivan, bringing with it a slew of updates including the segment's first in-car vacuum. It looks to be a neat little feature, one that families will no doubt get a lot of use out of. Kids are spill-machines, after all.
On the outside, the Odyssey gets a revised front end with dark headlamp surrounds, shiny cross-bars in the grille, and an aluminum hood and bumper. We think the blacked-out grille trim looks fine on this charcoal model, but question how smart it will look on models with lighter paint tones. Out back, there are new LED taillamps, and it looks like a new wheel design will be on offer, too.
Other changes for the 2014 Odyssey include some structural reinforcements for improved safety and some new available nannies like lane-departure warning and forward collision warning. Inside, buyers will find new finishes inside the cabin, a redesigned center stack and pushbutton start. Scroll down for the full details in an official video and in Honda's press release, and have a look at new images live from the show floor in the gallery above.
How Seinfeld hopes he'll help industry make better car commercials [w/video]
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Bloomberg has a fascinating look into a web series that continues to be a favorite around the Autoblog offices - Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. The series, which is in its second season, sees the affable comedian picking up fellow comedians in a range of interesting cars, and having conversations with them over the drive and a cup of joe.
The piece by Bloomberg dives into the development of the series, as well as Seinfeld's tie-up with Acura, which saw the Honda-owned brand begin sponsorship this season. That relationship started not with his web series, though, but with a Super Bowl ad, alongside fellow funnyman and car enthusiast Jay Leno, that saw them competing over a new Acura NSX. Have a click over to Bloomberg for an entertaining piece that looks beyond the YouTube series. We've also wrangled Seinfeld's original Super Bowl ad for the Acura NSX, which you can see below.
Honda getting in on the Daytona Prototype racing action
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Racing fans at Sebring are plenty used to seeing Honda powering into the winner's circle, the Japanese motor company having claimed class victories at the endurance race in Florida in 2007, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Those were all in the LMP2 category, but with the Twelve Hours of Sebring now part of the combined United SportsCar Championship, Honda is branching out into another class: Daytona Prototypes.
The purpose-built racing machinery that were once part of the Grand-Am series are now racing alongside the LMP2 prototypes from the American Le Mans Series under the united championship. So far Ford and Chevy have signed on to power the Daytona Prototypes, and now Honda's joining their ranks as the only manufacturer to field entries in both categories of the championship's Prototype class.
The competition-spec 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 revealed last month is based on the same J35 engine that powers everything from the Honda Accord to the Acura RLX and MDX. Now it will power the Riley chassis fielded by Starworks Motorsports, competing alongside the pair of Honda Performance Development (HPD) ARX-03b chassis which Extreme Speed Motorsports will campaign under LMP2 regulations, giving Honda a two-pronged, three-car assault on the top class of the new American sports car racing series.
