Comments:
I purchased this from someone who did not use it much. Many things were missing and I replaced them with new Honda OEM parts. I also replaced the IMA battery with a new 30% increased capacity (cost $3000).
This was fully checked out by Honda Riverside after I purchased the car (May 2014) to fix and/or replace any necessary parts with new ones. 1st and 2nd gears grid a bit ONLY down-shifting, regular up-shifting has no problems. The mechanic at Riverside Honda said this was common for this cars transmission. He guaranteed 70,000 more miles before it needs overhaul. Overhaul is $2800.
I used this for 3 months while I commuted to San Diego (1.5 hr drive) and no longer need the car (I'm moving). Great gas mileage (I got 83 MPG on the freeways!), easy and fun to drive. The grid charger is great, high quality (not like the "computer power-supplies" that most people sell) and required to maintain the battery replacement warranty. I have all documents and receipts, including the title. This car has a clean record, no accidents, just a two minor door dings (passenger door) and scratches (passenger mirror) from its age (see pictures).  Paint is in good condition, a bit weathered, but looks great with 3 new coats of McGuire's Car Wax!  I have put less than 2,000 miles on this car since I purchased it.


Deposit and payment:
Deposit of $500 is due immediately after auction end to our PayPal account. Remainder is due within 3 days. I will not accept PayPal for the remainder, unless you cover the transfer fee. If you require a special agreement for payment, please contact me prior to bidding. Thank you.


BIDDING TERMS: 
If you have a zero feedback score, I ask that you email me PRIOR to bidding to introduce yourself. I do this simply because I have had experiences with less-than-forthright bidders who disappear after the auction is over, which only causes frustration and raises the bid on our real, human bidders with actual intent to complete the sale. I reserve the right to cancel bids on zero feedback bidders that do not follow through with this request.


Title:
You will be supplied with a California title and a bill of sale from me. Title is ready and available to either hand to you for registration in your state or possibly get temporary tags until which time you can register car in your name. Car will come with license plates. All documents are in order for transfer. All other bidders from all other areas, title will be signed over and handed to you, so you can obtain registration in your state.

Questions:
Please, please, PLEASE, read everything here so there are no surprises. I like for our sales to go as smoothly as possible, so ask questions BEFORE you bid. It is unacceptable for a buyer to show up on delivery day and be surprised about something that is clearly listed in the description. I am here to answer questions, so please ask.

Scion FR-S pitted against oldtimers RX-8 and S2000

Tue, 07 May 2013

There are very few vehicles available today that compare directly with the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins. A case could be made for the Mazda MX-5 Miata, and possibly even six-cylinder versions of American coupes like the Ford Mustang. Pretty much everything else is either too expensive or is powered by the wrong set of wheels.
The boys from EverydayDriver on YouTube decided the only fair way to judge the inherent qualities of the Toyobaru twins was to pit them against two standard-bearers of years past: The Honda S2000 and Mazda RX-8. Neither of these cars is an exact matchup, with the Honda boasting a convertible top and the RX-8 offering more practicality via a rear seat and two reverse-opening doors for easier access. What they do offer, however, are similar performance stats and proven reputations for excellent handling.
None of this talk answers the real question, though: Which one wins the comparison test? Scroll down to watch the video, and be prepared for something of a surprise conclusion.

2016 Honda Civic Coupe spied inside and out

Fri, Sep 4 2015

Honda may be prepared to unveil the 2016 Civic Coupe on Sept. 16, but that doesn't mean work is done on the eagerly anticipated new fastback. Honda is continuing testing, as evidenced by this latest round of photos, which even gives us a glimpse of the cabin. As we can see, the exterior's shape has been toned down compared to the concept shown earlier this year in New York City, although the overall fastback rear end, high beltline, and generally aggressive styling is still present. Closer details, particularly around the front fascia, are harder to discern owing to the camouflage. The last-generation Civic did things very wrong. It went budget at a time when compact consumers demanded more premium features, options, and materials. Things were so bad that Honda had to rush a lackluster refresh to market. But with the new Civic, it finally looks like the Japanese brand is on its A-game. While plastic appears to still be the dominant material, the quality on display looks like it's been elevated substantially. The steering wheel is small, relatively sporting, and wrapped in black leather, while the beige leather seats look to have a modest dose of bolstering. The switch gear looks good, almost like it's been plucked from a higher-end model, like the Pilot, while our spies report that there will be a better array of optional extras, including stuff that's shown up as part of the Honda sensing suite of technology. Check out the spy images at the top of the page, and be sure to head back here on Sept. 16 for the Civic's official unveiling. Related Video:

Acura ILX headed for Civic-like early upgrades

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

The not-yet-ready-for-primetime 2012 Honda Civic saw it quickly returned to sender for refurbishment, now the Acura ILX is headed in the same direction in its very first year. Automotive News reports that the small, Civic-based sedan from Honda's luxury brand isn't meeting sales expectations, with an annualized rate of 22,000 to 24,000 sales instead of the 30,000 the company is after. More telling is that the ILX "is being outsold by the Buick Verano, Volkswagen CC and Audi A4," and, except for two months since it launched, it has also been outdone by the Acura TSX it is meant to replace.
Part of the cause has been the 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine: its 150 horsepower to motivate a sedan that can weigh up to 2,970 pounds doesn't offer the kind of performance or value experience that buyers in the segment respond to. Another big issue is that the top-level 2.4-liter engine is only offered with a six-speed manual even though most buyers of the highest trim don't really want to shift their own gears. Lastly, the ILX might not put enough space between it and its frugal underpinnings - our first drive review pegged it as "the world's nicest Honda Civic."
An automatic transmission is on the way for the 2.4-liter, but it isn't clear when. And while Honda admits that the 2.0-liter is underpowered and Automotive News says it's on the way out, the company hasn't yet said how that situation will be corrected.
