This is the nicest 1991 Honda Prelude Si anywhere.

This car has new brakes, rotars, calipers pads, battery, radiator, hoses, original engine professionally tuned and mechanically restored to factory specs. Never molested. Just rebuilt with better parts. I had 3 very nice sets of keys made for the car as well. Title clean and in hand.

Total blast to drive, this was the car that beat the 1991 corvette around the slalom. It carves corners. With the rebuild it has significantly more power because of higher quality components. I bought this car a few years ago to restore, it may sound crazy but a 1987 Honda Prelude was my first car so it was a sentimental restoration for me. This car had been garage kept it's entire life, it just needed a little TLC. I had the engine pulled out and sent to a very reputable Honda specialist, the block was tanked, blasted and repainted, all new internals, rotating assembly, belts, hoses, radiator. The transmission was in perfect condition. The mechanical restoration set me back $4,200 and I had the exterior of the car professionally painted by a nationally ranked paint specialist.

There were a couple rust spots that were cut out of a quarter section and new metal was welded in. That was a $4,500 paint job. I went with the Lexus Diamond white tricoat which is the very expensive paint. I have about $10,000 invested in the car over the last year and I just don't have time for it anymore. It runs great, new battery with 3 year warranty, fresh paint and maintenance. It's almost an antique vehicle and rare find for Prelude enthusiasts. The car has never been modified, only restored to original specifications.

It has the original radio but it doesn't work, the A/C needs to be recharged but it blows, just not cold. Heat works fine. The speedometer doesn't work or works intermittently and the resistor that is needed no longer exists, I have searched everywhere. It has some some minor wear in the interior, but the car is actually in pretty good shape. Mechanically it's like a band new car, but it's not perfect. I am selling this vehicle locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Vehicle as is, no warranty. Buyer assumes all responsibility and arranges delivery and or shipping of vehicle. Serious questions inquires only.

This is a steal if your not looking to put any money into a classic collectable Honda, all the work has been done and done right. All you have to do is charge the A/C and put whatever sound system you want in it and it's ready to go.

2017 Honda Accord Hybrid launches with best-in-class fuel economy

Thu, Apr 21 2016

After a one-year hiatus, the Accord Hybrid is back. Billed as a 2017 model, it goes on sale this spring. Honda has not detailed pricing for the new version, but American Honda Executive Vice President John Mendel says it will be similar to the 2015 model. The big items are 212 horsepower, an increase of 16, and EPA fuel economy ratings of 49 city, 47 highway, and 48 combined miles per gallon. All of those numbers are class-leading for midsize hybrid sedans. On paper the city figure is lower than the previous Accord Hybrid, rated at 50 mpg, but there's a reason. In 2017 the EPA is revising the fuel economy numbers downward to bring them more in line with real-world results. A similar adjustment happened in 2008. The new Accord Hybrid is certified for 2017, while competitors like the Chevrolet Malibu (47 city/46 hwy/46 combined) and Toyota Camry (43/31/39) use the current rules. Honda says the improvement is about four percent, so if the new car carried a 2016 sticker, the highway figure would be as high as 52 mpg. View 19 Photos Honda's reveal is light on other details about the new Accord Hybrid. The company stated only that the fuel economy gains come from a total re-engineering of the powertrain that includes new electric motors and a revised 2.0-liter Atkinson-cyline gasonline engine. A lithium-ion battery pack in the trunk eats up about two cubic feet of cargo space. The physical layout of the hybrid drive is the same as in the previous Accord, with two motors and a single-speed transmission for the gas engine. An explanation of the three drive modes is below. Honda engineers clarified that while the generator motor near the engine usually charges the battery it will also assist the drive motor in sending power to the front wheels at high speeds or loads.

Honda Sensing, the brand's name for its suite of autonomous and electronic safety system, is standard in the Accord Hybrid. That includes lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, and blind-spot warning. You can't tell that the Accord Hybrid has an aluminum hood by looking, but sharp eyes will pick up the unique wheel and blue accents to the headlights and taillights. Otherwise the 2017 Accord Hybrid looks and feel exactly like a conventional Accord, save for the "EV Mode" button on the right side of the center console.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
