For action is a 2002 Honda Civic EX 4-door sedan.  This summer the car blew a head gasket at approx 253,000 mi and we are selling the car for parts or rebuild.  The car was used mostly for a 35+ mi (each way) commute so a lot of the components would be typical of  a car with a lot of highway miles. 

Features power windows, locks and mirrors, CD player and power sunroof.

The engine has no compression and the radiator needs replaced as well.  The battery is probably dead.

There is a small dent on the driver's side door.

There is some rust around the driver's side rear wheel well.

The stock A/C button does not work.  We replaced the ECM which did not solve the problem.  A mechanic placed a switch next to the cigarette lighter adapter which is now used to turn it on.

Hood latch does not work well or at all.

Tranny is good.  We have never experienced and slipping or mis-shifts.  We have changed the transmission oil and filter on this car multiple times in its ownership.

Interior is in excellent condition considering the age and mileage.  There are no major tears or stains.  The car was driven by a non-smoker.  There are some scuffs around the HVAC controls due to pulling of radio for XM install.  All power components should work.

The running gear should be in pretty good shape.  The car passed inspection in Feb 2013.  Struts were replaced and I believe new rotors were installed in 2012.

Uniroyal Tiger Paws are approx 8/32 on the fronts and 11/32 on the rears.  Snow tires are available if you want them.

You will have to tow or trailer this car from our driveway.  Car is located in State College, PA.  Buyer will have two weeks after the end of the auction to do so or you will forfeit the sale without receiving your money back.

Cash or cashier's check accepted.

Feel free to ask any questions or schedule a time to view the car.  I will respond to questions on a daily basis.  


On Nov-24-13 at 09:49:20 PST, seller added the following information:

Edit: It is the driver's side rear door that is dented. Also, the buyer will assume all title and transfer costs. We have a clean title in hand.

Watch a motorcycle racer nearly rub the wall at Macau's track

Sun, Apr 10 2016

Motorcycle racer John McGuinness is no stranger to dangerous racetracks, having scored multiple victories in the frequently deadly Isle of Man TT. In this video, he trades the Snaefell Mountain Course's winding roads for the incredibly tight confines of the Macau Grand Prix circuit. The track is like China's version of the Circuit de Monaco, and it looks barely wide enough for two bikes to fit at some points in this clip. The claustrophobic layout makes the street track famously difficult for racing and occasionally deadly. McGuinness gives viewers a great tour of the track on his Honda Fireblade, and he frequently has his shoulders nearly grazing against the wall. You really get a sense of just how narrow the course gets. The ride looks both terrifying and very fun. If you want to see more of McGuinness' skill, here's a clip of him riding at Le Mans at night. We look forward to watching him at the Isle of Man again this year, too. McGuinness not only set a new electric bike lap record there in 2015 but also won the SES TT Zero Challenge.

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.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014



Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
