Saint John, Indiana, United States

 Hello, this auction is for a 2001 Acura CL Coupe. Car is wrecked, light and high on the front passenger side.  Runs fine, is not leaking antifreeze and condenser for AC still functions fine. The headlight is broken, but I have it, took it off so a buyer could see the damage.  The ballast is undamaged and still on it, in the trunk. Also the plastic core support cover is in the trunk too, again, so a buyer could see in there.  The core support is bent in on the top, not bad, and the hood is done for.  Fenders may be useable if you wanted to fix them, if not, new ones are cheap.  Both drivers wheel and pass dash airbags are blown, and the belt locked. Car has normal wear and tear for a car with 128,981 miles on it, but timing belt was just replaced at 116,000 miles, and had new ball joints installed.  Title is clear, the only known issue before the crash was that sometimes, (only when the car sits awhile) the trans will shift a bit hard, but it has always done that, and fluid is clean and full. Never seemed of any concern, and is fine after its warmed up.  The car can be driven home if you want, as I said, drives and cools fine. Also, Please come look at it if you like before you buy it. I encourage it, so you know exactly what you are buying.  There is NO warranty, and NO returns. I will ask for your license so I can write your info on a receipt for you and me, because you will assume all liability for the car at purchase.  I will not let you drive away without you signing the title, and getting your info, so there is no liability on my behalf.  Sorry, but if you don't have that info, aren't willing to give it to me, or a valid drivers license, don't bid. I know. Pain in the a##, but this is the new world. Also, ask any questions early, I don't sit and watch the computer, so please give me time to get back to you.

Honda exec says US market near capacity, could hurt subprime buyers

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Is there a point in the US auto industry where companies should start considering the welfare of their customers ahead of selling more cars? American Honda Executive Vice President of Sales John Mendel thinks that level exists, and we may be getting very close to it.
According to Automotive News, Mendel believes that finding more customers in the market could require pursuing subprime buyers and offering longer-term loans. However, he refuses to use those tactics. While selling models this way can improve things briefly, the strategies hurt resale prices and lower vehicle profits over time. The company won't do "stupid things in the short-term that damage the person who bought yesterday," he said to Automotive News. "It's a very, very short-term tactic especially in the subprime area."
American Honda, which combines the Acura and Honda brands, has seen market share decline from 9.7 percent to 9.1 percent through July 2014, according to Automotive News, and Autoblog's By the Numbers stats showed it posted falling sales in five of the seven months with data this year. Though, Mendel claims that was partially because the company focused on retail sales over fleets. The delays of the launches for the Honda Fit and Acura TLX likely didn't help either.

Acura recalling 76,000 TSX sedans in certain cold-weather states

Sun, 24 Mar 2013

Parent company Honda is issuing a recall for Acura TSX vehicles from model years 2004 to 2008, for a rather interesting fault with the electrical systems (well, kind of). It seems that TSX made between during that range have carpeting that degrades when it becomes saturated with "corrosive materials for deicing." The carpeting is in contact with each Acura's electronic control unit, which may in turn rust or become corroded as a result. All of that business could cause the engine to stall.
Acura is singling out cars registered in states that use these corrosive deicing materials (presumably road salt): Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia.
Owners of affected vehicles will be notified by Honda and instructed to bring their cars into the nearest Acura dealership. Dealers will inspect the ECU for damage, replace if needed, and cover with a waterproof piece; all free of charge. Check out the official recall notice below.

Acura NSX bodywork to be sheathed in zirconium e-coat, fewer paint layers

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

Automakers make halo cars to drum up excitement and show off what they can do, but there's more to it than that. Advanced platforms allow a company's engineers to experiment with all sorts of technologies. And in the case of the upcoming new Acura NSX, that includes new paint processes.
Speaking with Autoline in this video interview, Honda's North American Senior VP Jon Minto talked about an innovative zirconium e-coat which it's applying to the new NSX. Unlike some experimental paints developed for Formula One, however, this coating is not designed to minimize drag or enhance cooling: it's designed to be more environmentally friendly.
It's one of a few measures which Honda is implementing on the NSX before expanding it to more accessible models, along with another process that uses fewer coats to reduce energy consumption by 40 percent. Watch the interview with Autoline host John McElroy right here.
