This is the Honda Civic - SI I-VTEC DOHC. At the time I write this, there are no mechanical problems that I am aware of, nor have there been since I bought it. The car is just as solid and peppy as the day I drove it off the showroom floor. It is a great, great car. I am the original owner. It has 4 new 94V Wintrac Xtreme XL tires ( 7,000 miles on them) and a new battery within the last year. The interior is in very good to excellent condition other than one unfortunate flaw - there is a small cigarette burn on the back seat. The SI is noted for having the red stitching throughout the car including the steering wheel - there is no broken stitching anywhere! The only functional issue to mention is the drivers side automatic door lock stopped working (the passenger and hatch locks are fine). It needs a new actuator put in ($15 part). The outside does have some surface scrapes and small dings as to be expected with a 9 year old car, but there is nothing major! You cannot feel the scrapes, just see them. This SI has the sunroof and it does not leak!!! Also, there is not rust or peeling paint - I tried to get a good shot of the tires as well as the wheel well to show that there is no rust.

I am selling the car because I fell in love with the Hyundai Veloster - Turbo - Red!! I really had no intention of buying a new car (obviously since I had just spent $800 on new tires), but my daughter was there looking at Hyundai's and I saw this one sitting on the showroom floor and that was that. My Civic SI was driven with respect. I am a 65 yr. old female, but don't let that fool you. I love cars and I am a very good driver. I have always owned sports cars (Porsche, 2 Alfa Romeos). I bought the SI because it came very close to handling like my Porsche and the shift gear came out of the dash like in my Alfas. So, to me it was the best of both worlds. It handled like a sports car yet I could put things in there from Home Depot!. So, did I drive it fast, yes at times, but never recklessly. I have religiously changed the oil every 3,000 miles, and it just passed the Illinois emissions control test in September. It really is an awesome car.

This car did sell on ebay last week, but the buyer backed out due to his financing falling through. PLEASE, PLEASE . . . serious buyers only and those that already HAVE financing in place. I actually took it to CarMax today because I did not want to deal with another possible negative situation, but as I expected, they were going to give me nothing for it. I will keep it first!! If you check on their website, they sell this car for 12,000 (with 107,000 miles) and 14,000 (with 77,000 miles). Personally, I think that is crazy, but that is what they have 2 of them selling for. I have their appraisal form with everything passing fine - no negatives at all. I plan to add that report, but must wait till Monday until I can scan it at work.

Please email me with any questions that you might have - I will be 100% honest with you. If you prefer to speak, email me for my phone number. Local pick-up or I will work with you if you need to have it shipped (buyer's expense). I sold my Alfa Romeo on ebay and worked with the buyer to ship it to Pennsylvania. I require a $500 deposit thru Paypal within 24 hrs and full payment within 7 days of close of auction. Payment must be with a cashier checks or money order. Car can be picked up or shipped when payment has cleared. Low reserve price. Thank you for looking, and please, again SERIOUS bidders only.

On Nov-19-13 at 14:05:50 PST, seller added the following information:

NOTE: I am adding the appraisal from Carmax as promised. I spoke with the appraiser afterwards because I was upset about only a "good condition" rating, but he explained that that is the best they give. Something is either GOOD, or not. If it isn't, then they state what the problem or issue is. The same goes for the second page where everything is "OK". Again, that means that there are no problems or issues, or they would state specifically what the problem or issue is. Hope this information helps you.

Watch Honda lay waste to world's fastest lawnmower record

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

Honda has been working on its high-performance Mean Mower for a while now. In a recent attempt to take the top speed title, it didn't make its 130-miles-per-hour top speed target, but it still managed to set a new Guinness World Record has the world's fastest lawnmower at 116.57 mph. While the video certifying the run was uploaded to YouTube on April 1, this is no prank. The Guinness run was made on March 8 at the Idiafa Proving Ground in Tarragona, Spain.
To claim the record, the lawnmower had to run through a 100-meter speed trap, and it had to make two passes in opposite directions within an hour with the average taken between them. Guinness also specifies that to take the title the vehicle must still be able to cut grass and look like a lawnmower. The speed was still plenty to beat the previous record of 96.529-mph set by Bobby Cleveland on a Snapper race mower at the Bonneville Salt Flats in September 2010.
The Mean Mower is based on a Honda HF2620 Lawn Tractor that's been modified by British Touring Car Championship squad Team Dynamics. It has a newly fabricated chassis from 4130 chromoly steel and packs a 1.0-liter engine from a Honda VTR Firestorm motorcycle with a six-speed sequential gearbox. The engine produces 109 horsepower and 71 pound-feet of torque - enough power to reach 60 mph in around four seconds. The suspension and wheels come from an ATV, and the cutter deck has been remade in fiberglass. The grass bag holds the fuel tank, oil cooler and secondary radiator. The engine no longer actually cuts grass. Instead, the blade is driven by two electric motors.

YouTube viewers prefer BMW

Fri, Sep 11 2015

BMW owners sometimes get a bad rap as being snobbish, rude drivers, but according to a new study by the online marketing company ZEFR, Bimmer aficionados also have a close relationship with the brand's vehicles. With well over 4 billion YouTube views, the German automaker is the industry's king of the road online. Making the popularity even sweeter for marketers, 95 percent of those clicks are for fan videos, which represents loads of free advertising. BMW isn't the only automaker with such an extensive following. Honda comes in a close second with around 4 billion views, and Mercedes-Benz is just a little behind it. Among all brands, it's the norm for fan-made videos rather than the official ones to get the lion's share of the clicks, generally 95 percent or more. "YouTube has become a treasure trove for connecting with the right people for automakers," Dave Rosner, ZEFR marketing boss, said to Automotive News. Beyond just a popularity contest among brands, automotive videos are big business on YouTube, according to ZEFR's research. Enthusiasts are leading the way, too. Racing is by far the most-watched category with 895,000 clips generating a staggering 8.2 billion views. Classic cars are also a very hot topic with 305,000 videos getting 1.6 billion clicks. Surprisingly, when it comes to watching auto videos, sedans are most popular on YouTube with over 9 billion views, according to Automotive News. Meanwhile, SUVs, performance vehicles, and pickups were each around 3 billion or less. You can check out the full study for yourself, as a PDF, here. Related Video:

Honda CR-V spied looking curvy and sophisticated

Wed, Apr 20 2016

The Honda CR-V is well into its lifecycle, and today we're getting a close look at a prototype that previews the crossover's new styling. The CR-V could be revealed this year ahead of a market launch in 2017, perhaps putting it as a 2018 model. We expect the new generation to increase in size and offer a third row, while drawing power from an updated engine lineup that uses the company's Earth Dreams suite of technologies. A hybrid model is likely, too. The front and rear of this camouflaged prototype have fairly evolutionary changes to Honda's current design, and the vehicle has a stronger, more chiseled appearance than today's CR-V. We can't see the interior, but we expect it to get new safety and tech features in keeping with current trends. Honda updated the CR-V for the 2015 model year, and it's soldiered on as a stalwart of the company's lineup. Still, the vehicle is showing signs of age. In a crossover-friendly marketplace, the CR-V's sales have declined 2.7 percent this year to 71,188 units through March. The CR-V has been around since 1997, and as these shots illustrate, Honda is aggressively trying to keep its long-running nameplate relevant.
