1990 Honda Crx Hf Coupe 2-door 1.5l Hybrid Tuner Special on 2040-cars
Mokena, Illinois, United States
|
Daily driver that I average 46 mpg with. The 1.5 liter American-market CRX HF (High Fuel economy)
model (chassis codes EC1 and AF) could reliably achieve very good
gas mileage, more than a decade before gas-electric hybrids appeared on the market, and at no price premium over the base model; the 1.5 liter is rated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (under the new rating system) at 42 miles per U.S. gallon (5.6 l/100 km; 50 mpg-imp) city and 51 miles per U.S. gallon (4.6 l/100 km; 61 mpg.
Only a genuine CRX HF will get you this and no other will come close. In 2012, the engine and trans were replaced with one that only had 112,000 miles on it. This was due to a leaking radiator that took out the original engine at 220,000. So that means this powertrain has roughly 130,000 on it. At the time the engine and trans were swapped out, a new radiator, water pump, tensioner, timing belt, alternator and clutch were installed. At that time newer struts and springs off a 30,000 mile donor were installed. The front axles and cv joints were replaced then too. New goodyear tires and a fresh paint job were also part of the restoration. The seats are out of an Si and are in great condition. Then I purchased the car Nov. of 2012. Since then it has been a daily driver. I have added factory A/C back to the car. I replaced the exhaust with a full stainless system including a new header. I added fog lights and the lower chin lip and new parking brake cables. A kenwood CD player with an AUX. input was installed along with a pair of 10 inch woofers and a 3200 watt amp. This car is being listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time due to local sale. |

Honda adopts English as its official language in meetings worldwide
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Japanese was clearly the language of operation while we visited Honda's global headquarters in Tokyo last week, as well as its newest factory and principal test track. Chief executive Takanobu Ito (pictured above) spoke to us through an interpreter. But according to the latest reports, the Japanese language is being phased out at Honda in favor of English.
This according to Bloomberg, which points out that tire manufacturer Bridgestone and rival automaker Nissan have implemented similar measures, as have Japanese retail giants Fast Retailing Co. and Rakuten Inc. Honda's shift from Japanese to English comes as part of a shift in focus from central decision-making to a more regional model, but while English has clearly emerged as the international language of business, it's no coincidence that it's also the dominant language here in America. Bloomberg points out that over the 12-month period that ended this past March, North America accounted for a massive 47 percent of Honda's revenues worldwide.
NSX Concept-GT is the world's hottest way to boil water
Sat, 05 Oct 2013The Honda NSX Concept-GT is one sexy machine, and it looks to be a very effective tool on a race circuit. But Honda's latest web spot leads us to believe that it also can be used to make tea.
In the video, the racecar is hooked up to an apparatus that uses tubing to harness the energy from the car's 500-horsepower hybrid drive system, using it to boil water. The novel tea-making technique reminds us a bit of a couple other inventive Honda commercials, namely Hands and Cog.
Watch the NSX ad below, and be sure to turn the sound up to hear that glorious engine note.
Honda Jazz Prototype is brand's latest production-ready 'concept'
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Another auto show, another Honda "prototype." The brand has made something of a habit of showing very thinly veiled production models at the world's auto shows, ranging from the Accord, to the Civic and Civic Type-R, as well as the CR-V. And yes, this is far from the first time we've railed against this particular trend (it's not even the first time at this auto show). Now, it's time to preview the production-ready Jazz, known to American consumers as the recently released Fit.
As we covered in our original post on the Jazz Prototype, this car is pretty much a twin to the Fit, aside from its 1.3-liter engine. Sitting in place of the US-market 1.5-liter four-cylinder, the Earth Dreams 1.3 is probably a bit more suited to the tighter urban environments of the European Union. While the engine might be different, the six-speed manual and continuously variable transmission will be plenty familiar to US consumers.
We have a full live gallery of the new Jazz Prototype at the top of the page. Take a look at that, and then scroll down for Honda's press release and official images.
