Selling my '01 Silverstone Metallic S2000. It's a great running & driving car and has been ultra reliable, but I've got a few more important things I need and too many vehicles; this one's the least practical so it's got to go. It's relatively stock and most of the "upgrades" were made out of necessity. Rarely driven in anger, babied and pampered for the two years I've owned it. Everything works EXACTLY how it should; A/C blows COLD, engine starts perfect, purrs like a kitten at idle, vtec engages how it should; no warning lights on the cluster.

  • Body: 8/10 - A few minor paint chips in the fenders from road debris.
  • Interior: 7/10 - Typical wear on left drivers seat bolster and seat bottom, minor wear on carpet, wear & tear on shifter trim.
  • Soft Top: 7/10 - Good condition for it's age. Light clouding on the plastic rear window, beginning to tear on both sides at the plastic flaps but they're only about 1/4"-1/2" in length right now; should be no issue to patch and keep hidden if caught soon.

  • Oil changed every 3k miles with Castrol GTX 10w30
  • Cooling system flushed 1k miles ago
  • Transmission and rear diff fluids changed 10k miles ago
  • Valves adjusted 5k miles ago
  • Spark Plugs replaced 5k miles ago
  • Registration and TX state inspection valid until 2015


"MODS"
  • Full Blown aluminum radiator - Stock radiator fans
  • Hasport 62a Billet Engine Mounts - Supposed to have been stock replacement; GREAT feel and power transfer while driving, but they cause quite a bit of in-cabin vibration at idle RPM
  • Aeromotive Stealth Fuel Pump (installed in anticipation of a future turbo, still have stock)
  • Stainless Steel Straight Pipe after cat to right behind the rear axle (still have stock exhaust minus flange, used for straight pipe)
  • No-Name / Ebay front lip, unpainted but in excellent condition. Decent fit.
  • ** Hardtop previously included is no longer available and will be sold separately**


CONS
  • Excessive in-cabin vibration due to Hasport mounts; not unbearable, just a minor annoyance at times
  • The straight pipe exhaust is loud. Not unbearable, but I really enjoy the sound the F20c makes, even while cruising; not everyone will.
  • Drivers side soft top latch is wearing and causes wind noise at highway speeds; still holds tight against rain and car washes.

 The title is clear, but there is still an open bank loan on the vehicle; the final loan payment to be made after full payment for the vehicle is received. The winning buyer is welcomed/encouraged to accompany me to the bank to complete the transaction. The account is current and in good standing.

Honda reveals next-gen Fit Hybrid

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Psst! Remember late last month when we showed you those Japanese magazine scans purporting to show the next Honda Fit? The ones with the markedly more aggressive snout and Cuisinart-blade alloys? Yup, they were the real deal, but they weren't the standard model, they were images of the new Hybrid. We know this because Honda has just released a handful of images and some details on its forthcoming gas-electric hatchback, and the images line up perfectly.
The big story for the third-generation Fit Hybrid will be the fuel economy, naturally. Honda says it has achieved economy ratings of 36.4 kilometers per liter - 86 miles per gallon - on its home-market cycle, highest among all hybrid models in Japan and a 35-percent improvement over the current Fit Hybrid, a model not sold in the US.
Honda says it has achieved economy ratings of 86 mpg on its home-market cycle.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

How Seinfeld hopes he'll help industry make better car commercials [w/video]

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Bloomberg 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.
