Good day and my sincerest thanks for looking at my CRX!

The CRX Si for sale is a very clean example, the cleanest I've ever seen.  64,XXX original miles, original engine, parts, interior, seats, panels, sunroof, etc. The color is Milano Red.  High quality job that I had a hard time distinguishing from an original paint job when I purchased it, but after some close inspection and finding some evidence of some overspray, the finding was that it had indeed been repainted.  

STILL one of the cleanest CRX's on the market.  As my co-worker put it, "It looks like someone just put it in storage for 20 years and you just pulled it out yesteday."  It looks that good.  OEM mint exhaust with NO RUST on the tips like most.  Crispy seats with zero tears.  Buttons and AC panel sparkle without a single scratch or imperfection.  The plastic window that guards the speedometer is shiny, scratch free and of course original.  Rear cargo area 100% complete with completely functional locking storage compartment, all clips and covers present, clean and functional too.  Original VIN sticker as well as the OEM color code stickers for both the interior and exterior are located correctly on their respective door jams.  The doors and interior door panels are free from ANY imperfection, in fact the fuzzy part where it says "CRX" looks brand new.  This car has been meticulously well kept. The engine bay sparkles, email me for the link to the pics of it.  Professional tint all around.  Fully functional sunroof, lights, seatbelt lights, startup beeps, glovebox.  This car is a genuine time capsule, perfect for a meticulous person like myself to continue to treasure.

The history of this CRX to the furthest of my knowledge:

-was purchased in Washington, DC new in December of 1991
-was relocated with the owner to Southern Nevada in the early 00s
-stayed there until a sale to an enthusiast in Florida in 2012/13, by which point the car had been repainted
-at this point it appeared on "Bring a Trailer" (I cant provide a link due to ebays new policies, just google it)
-then traded in to Morrison Motor Co in North Carolina
-then purchased by an enthusiast from this company in July 2013 who relocated it to Los Angeles
-then purchased by myself in August of 2013

Included with the car is the original manual, radio card, warranty information, and sales book.  One original key and one copy is included.

CLEAN TITLE ON HAND.  The previous short-term owners never transferred the title in their own names.  Therefore it's going to cost me $630 according to my appointment at the CA DMV to title the car in my name.  I have yet to do this because I've been out of work recently and won't be able to afford to title this until the sale of this car.  Therefore, at the time of purchase, I will present the original title along with all the other necessary paperwork and provide copies of them as well, but I will need the originals to complete the titling process.  We will complete the Bill of Sale in compliance of law and once our transaction is complete I will use $630 from the sale and complete the titling process.  According to the lady from the DMV I spoke with, it will take about 1 month from that point to receive the title in my name at which point I will sign over and send to you.  I have copies of all the invoices and applications verified on 7/9/2014 by the CA DMV and will email them to you upon your request.  This obstacle is also the reason for the most recent and final price drop. It has all been verified however by the dmv as completely doable.

Drives like it came off the production floor yesterday.  The car's mechanical workings are flawless.  Drives straight as an arrow. Shifts smoothly (you can shift with one finger easily), idles perfectly and soundly.  Starts perfectly everytime without hesitation, though theres a loose part somewhere in the engine bay that causes a rattle only when the car first starts.  Purely cosmetic and I'm working on trying to silence it.  Another funny little squeak comes from one of the passenger side wheels, I believe it's a ball bearing needing replacement? Sunroof, all lights, features, speakers, dials, manual controls like the windows work perfectly.  Windshield wipers work perfectly along with every other feature. AC blows ice cold.  My friend commented yesterday how cold it was.

There isnt a single dent or ding anywhere on the cars body.  Highest quality body you will find on the market.  The blacks of the moldings are very well cared for and have been treated with anti-aging products.  

Has the car been in an accident?

The fact that the car has been repainted, the radiator may/may not have been replaced and that the front bumper is missing the OEM "made in Japan" sticker, the signs indicate that the car was involved with some sort of front-end fender bender.  It is unknown to me how severe a collision was, but it was clearly repaired with much care, OEM materials and has no residual performance effect.  Other than this, the passenger side front quarter panel is slightly mis-shapen where it meets the passenger door (so slight it's impossible to capture in pics) that leads me to believe that a ding or small dent was corrected.  But repeat, it's so slight, youd have to look at if for hours before you'd notice it.

If the car doesn't sell for a price I'd like, I'd have no problem keeping it.  

The front headlight bulbs and rear tails lights have been replaced with sylvannia white bulbs.  The interior lights have been replaced with white LEDs.  The sounds system has been upgraded to an Alpine one in all four speakers and the Alpine interface producing high quality sound.  When it was installed by the previous owner he took great care to not drill any holes or alter the set up of the original wiring. Includes Sirius XM. Also compatible with Pandora, USB, AUX, HD radio and Bluetooth.  Stock radio included.

The interior is unbelievably mint.  Grains on all the plastic is like new.  No wear on any buttons, the original white paint on all the buttons is unworn and beautiful.  Original shift knob, seats, everything.  Smells like new.  No floor mats, however, are included.

Falken tires with only about 7k miles of use on them.  

The clean title is on hand.  Please keep in mind that it is a Nevada title, not a California title as it has yet to be registered under any owner's name since its Nevada owner in early 2013.  

I realize that there are a lot of CRX enthusiasts out there that are eager to discuss the specifics and correct any statements made and I completely understand that.  What I won't understand or tolerate is being attacked or insulted with your messages/calls which has indeed been my experience over the past few weeks.  It is not my intention to mislead or misinform to anyone.  I want the buyer of this CRX to make an informed decision and to be 100% happy with their new car.  This doesn't give any prospective buyer any cause to insult me. 

Payment due 3 days of BIN use.  SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY PLEASE.  The dude who used the BIN feature just used it and never paid, emailed, nothing. Please don't put me through that again.

I will cooperate fully with the shipping company if you use one, otherwise the shipping is your responsibility.

Please email me for a link to 60+ pics of this gem

Daimler, Toyota, BMW to lead $10-billion hydrogen investment

Wed, Jan 18 2017

Daimler, BMW, and Toyota are leading a group of 13 companies pledging to invest more than $10 billion during the next five years to spur enough infrastructure-building and technology advancements to get more of the general public to buy hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles. The automakers, which also include Honda and Hyundai, as well as companies such as Shell, AirLiquide, Linde Group, and Total SA, are part of what they're calling the Hydrogen Council. The group made its announcement in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday. The Hydrogen Council will pledge to accelerate its rate of hydrogen-related investments, which currently stand at about $1.5 billion annually. The coalition says its work represents a continuation of the 2015 Paris Agreement, in which many of the companies agreed to address the issue of climate change. The group says that hydrogen, which emits water vapor when used in fuel-cell vehicles, "can play an important role in the transition to a clean, low-carbon, energy system." The Hydrogen Council also vowed to push global governments to accelerate public investment in hydrogen-related infrastructure. Relative to other drivetrain technologies, hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles are in their relative infancy in terms of adoption because of the high cost of both building fuel cell vehicles and setting up a hydrogen-refueling infrastructure. Toyota is the only automaker that sells a production fuel-cell vehicle in the US. The Japanese company, which introduced its Mirai domestically in late 2015, sold 1,034 of them in the US last year. Daimler subsidiary, Mercedes-Benz, used Tuesday's announcement to remind people that it would start selling its GLC plug-in hydrogen fuel-cell crossover this year. There are only 33 publicly accessible hydrogen refueling stations in the US, including 30 in California, and one each in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and South Carolina, according to the US Department of Energy. By comparison, there are more than 15,000 electric-vehicle charging stations with almost 40,000 outlets in the US.

Check out the orange McLaren-Honda racecar that might actually win a race

Wed, May 3 2017

Following the announcement that Fernando Alonso, two-time F1 world champion, would drive a McLaren-Honda IndyCar in this year's Indianapolis 500, we now get to see the car. Naturally, being a McLaren, it's painted in the company's official orange hue. It's actually even more orange than the company's Formula 1 cars, which are two-tone: orange and black. The reveal of the car's livery comes in conjunction with Alonso's first testing day at the Indianapolis Speedway, which you can watch live, here. Alonso has never participated in the Indy 500 before, nor has he been behind the wheel of Indy cars. That doesn't mean he can't win, though. Fellow Formula 1 racer Alexander Rossi took home the win last year, and that was his first time at the 500. Rossi also won in an Andretti-backed, Honda-powered car, just as Alonso will this year. So it isn't unreasonable to think Alonso could win, or at least place well. Certainly his odds are better than driving one of the beleaguered McLaren-Honda F1 cars at Monaco that same weekend.

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.
