 I have owned this car since 1998, over 16 years!  This is the most reliable car I have ever owned and never left me stranded. EVER.  It was my daily driver for the last 15 of the 16 years I have owned it, and I am only selling it as I have 2 young kids now and cannot put the kids in this car, so I now have a 4 door sedan with child seats.

This car was never raced, never modified.  All OEM, stock except for Brembo brakes and a flowmaster header.  I have the original Honda header and will give you with the car.

I have taken meticulous care of this car, from waxing twice a year, to oil changes every 3000 miles, all done myself. 

What's new:

transmission was rebuilt at 194,000 miles, and has been fantastic and like brand new since.  No issues at all.

radiator and all cooling hoses were replaced around 196,000 miles

15" Goodyear Eagle GT tires have less than 2000 miles on them and are fantastic all season tires.  This is my 3rd set of them!

Just passed NYS inspection

Car is super-clean inside and out.  This was my baby for the last 16 years.  No smoke, no pets, no spilled drinks/food, nothing.  Just clean OEM interior and mats (prelude mats were covered with rubber mats so they are MINT)

- I have an extra set of 14" steel wheels & tires with Honda hub caps, if you want them too - free with sale


Things to consider:

- Engine does burn oil.  Anyone that is familiar with the 1991 2.1 engine is aware that Honda used a new material for the cylinder liners, and this leads to oil consumption, but the engines still run fine, and almost forever.  I run thicker 10W40 high mileage oil and Lucas oil for extra protection and reduced consumption.

- The passenger lock does not open with the key, but can be locked/unlocked from the inside.  The key is worn from so many years of use, but the doors do lock, and there is a working alarm.

- Rust in some spots, (typical Honda rust locations) as described and shown in photos

- Yes, there is a salvage title.  There was when I bought the car in 1998.  I believe the carfax said that it was stolen back in 1993 or so, and recovered.  In the 16 years I have had this car, I have not had any issues related to this.

- There is no warranty, of course.  Neither expressed nor implied.  Car will be sold as-is.

Finalists for 2014 Green Car of the Year announced

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

The list of finalists for the 2014 Green Car of the Year has been announced, and in a genuinely bizarre twist, there's only one hybrid and no electric vehicles among the five contestants, despite the arrival of cars like the BMW i3 and Tesla Model S. Taking the place of the EVs are a pair of diesels, repping a technology that last won a Green Car of the Year award in 2009, when the Audi A3 TDI took the title. No diesel was in the running for last year's award.
Naturally, both of the diesel finalists are fielded by the Germans - with BMW's 328d and Audi's A6 TDI getting the nod. In the case of the 3 Series, BMW installed a 2.0-liter, turbodiesel, capable of delivering 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while returning 45 miles per gallon on the highway. Audi and its larger, 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel produce quite a bit more grunt, with 240 hp and 428 lb-ft of grunt, but net a very impressive 38 mpg on the highway in the A6.
Finalists for this year's awards include two diesels, three gas-powered cars and a plug-in hybrid.

Honda, Mercedes top KBB brand image awards [w/video]

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

Kelley Blue Book has announced the winners of its 2014 Brand Image Awards, which look at brands with "attributes that capture the attention and enthusiasm" of customers in the market for a new car.
The award is divided up into luxury brands and everyone else non-luxury brands, with a number of sub-awards in each group. There's also a single award for truck brands. Taking the crown for the best everyman brand (for the second year in a row) is Honda, while Mercedes-Benz was the king of the luxury brackets. Ford, meanwhile, had the best image among pickup buyers.
Honda was also named the most trusted brand among shoppers, while Kia, GMC, Mini and Chevrolet also snagged awards for value, refinement, performance and styling, respectively. Secondary winners in the luxury ranks include Lexus, Buick, Porsche and Jaguar. Mercedes was also named the most refined luxury brand.
