Greetings. I just inherited a 2004 Vibe, so I must painfully give up my 1987 Honda Accord LX (4 door automatic). It's that ideal story - I bought this car 5 years ago from the family of a little old lady in Alabama who passed away, and it was in immaculate condition, with only 79,000 miles on it. I've mostly kept it in Chattanooga, but have driven it to Dallas and Atlanta with no problems. With only 2 owners, it now has under 128,000. The title is clear. As you can see from the free Autocheck report, the car has never resided outside of the South and has never seen snow. Autocheck says that it usually lists this vehicle with ratings from 9 - 27, however, this Honda Accord comes in with a rating of 34!
-Great vintage colors - gold outside and milk chocolate brown inside
-Regular oil, coolant, and transmission fluid changes (oil every 3,000 miles - coolant and transmission according to specifications - see receipts)
-Clean, well cared for engine (see photo)
-New radiator and hoses (Summer 2012)
-New spark plugs and belts (Fall 2011)
-New timing belt and water pump (Summer 2012)
-Always rotated tires (every 4,000 miles)
-Radio/CD Player/iPod port (Fall 2010)
-Working automatic windows, all gauges, all lights, and blinkers
-The cool flip headlights (I'm going to miss these!)
I love this little car. If I was married or had a long term partner, I would never get rid of it - it's a perfect 2nd car or just for for getting around town. But, I've been doing a lot of roadtrips, and it's not comfortable. Plus I don't want to pay insurance on 2 cars. The quirks I will warn you about are minor, but I just want to be as transparent as possible:
-The trunk is slightly damp smelling - I left it open during a huge rainstorm, (trying to dry it out!) and it got soaked. But I've vacuumed and shampooed it so it isn't moldy (see picture)
-The body is in great condition for the age, but has just one small set of dents on the front right fender where I hit a pole (see picture)
Quirks included, I believe this is a great deal for a car that is so well maintained - especially an 80s Honda. It may be old, but if you take care of it like I have, it's got another 128,000 on it! As you can see from online ratings (http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/1987-Honda-Accord-Overview-c4655) my reserve price is about on par for the average selling price for this car with this low of mileage.

Honda Civic Tourer to debut at Frankfurt
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Honda will be bringing its new Civic Tourer to next month's Frankfurt Motor Show, just as we predicted in our spy shots of the new MPV from back in April. The new model, which will arrive in European dealers in 2014, will be built alongside Honda's Euro-spec Civic hatchback, Jazz (Honda Fit) and CR-V in Swindon, Wiltshire, UK.
Honda first hinted at the Civic Tourer with a concept at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, which is set to do battle with the Toyota Auris and Volkswagen Golf in the European market. The production Civic Tourer will also be shown alongside a refreshed Civic hatchback, yet another NSX Concept variant, a McLaren MP4/4 Formula One car, and Honda's World Touring Car Championship Civic.
Acura NSX production car headed for Detroit debut?
Tue, 23 Oct 2012Auto Express is reporting that Honda is set to unveil the production version of its upcoming Acura NSX at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. The news comes courtesy of an unnamed "top exec" for Honda Brazil speaking at the Sao Paulo Motor Show. The concept version of the Japanese supercar is currently on display there. Interestingly enough, the same unnamed source claims the production iteration will remain aesthetically identical to the show car. You won't hear any qualms from us on that front.
Of course, the timing of the production debut is a little confusing. For starters, when Acura unveiled the concept last year, the company told the world it would be at least three years before production began. That would give the street-worthy model a 2014 or 2015 designation, the latter being cited more often in media accounts. Thus, we'll keep an eye out for the hybrid supercar in Motown, but we're going to stop short of holding our breath... it might be a while.
Honda Concept B Hybrid production version coming to China in 2016
Mon, 21 Apr 2014At the Beijing Motor Show this weekend, Honda took the wraps off of the Concept B Hybrid, a "new-value concept" that will apparently do its level best to get the Japanese automaker back into the entry-level gas-electric game. Powertrain details for the five-door concept hatch are noticeably absent, so we are assuming that what Honda wants with this concept is for us to focus on the looks. Honda says the car's exterior design is "advanced and cool-looking." We like the shape, but think a few changes will do wonders for the production model.
If the busy front end gets turned down a bit in production (it's especially glaring from the front), we can see this becoming a darn good replacement for the Insight at the lower end of the hybrid price spectrum. Sadly, for now, Honda is saying that the mass-production model that uses the Concept B as a foundation will be available "exclusively" on the Chinese market in two years.
Speaking at the Beijing show, Honda president and CEO Takanobu Ito continued to look for ways to green his company's line-up, and said Honda, "will strive to become number one in complying with Chinese CAFE regulations, which are the toughest in the world, and offer a new lifestyle for Chinese customers." Come 2016, that new lifestyle could look like the car you see in the gallery above. Think it's a good one?
