Up for sale or trade is my 92 Accord. This Accord was handed down to my friend after her Grandma passed away. The car lived in California and Idaho (no road salt in Idaho) up until a couple years ago when she moved here. I bought it from her with 99K miles last March as she was moving to China with her job and I needed a sedan since my wife and I were having our first baby in June. Both Carfax and Autocheck show 5 owners, but i know for a fact i am the 3rd owner, so i am assuming they counted moving to Idaho and then to Minnesota as 2 owners even though it was the same person!
As everyone knows, these CB7 accords with the F22 motors are probably the most reliable, dependable, and efficient transportation machines ever built. With just over 101K miles, this thing is just barely broken in, and with 32 MPG it's almost more expensive to walk! So if you want to hit Dick Cheney where it really hurts, his Swiss account, then buy this car and use less fuel.
Here is a list of the things that have been replaced since April 2012....these things were not broken, just replaced a preventative maintenance as i have had 3 other accords like this all of which reached 300K and i know what goes wrong as miles get higher. My wife drove it for about a month and did not like it and wants a CR-V instead.
-All new Honda OEM transmission cables...(they were not broken, but they are known to get stiff and make it hard to shift. So this was more preventative)
-Full Transmission flush with the new and improved Honda DW-1 transmission fluid instead of the old Z1. This was not a cheap flush that ruins transmissions, instead it was done according to Honda's recommendation, which was drain, refill, drive.....drain, refill, drive......drain, refill, drive..... final drain and refill. This takes a total of 12 quarts and at $12.85 a quart plus labor.......you do the math!
-Timing belts (both cam timing belt and balance shaft timing belt), idler, tensioner, and water pump replaced one thousand miles ago at 100K. (High quality Gates timing belt and components)
-New OEM cam seals.
-New OEM crankshaft seals.
-Full tune up including, spark plugs, OEM ignition wires, OEM distributor cap, OEM distributor rotor.
-New OEM valve cover gasket.
-New OEM Spark plug tube seals.
-New OEM Radiator.
-New OEM thermostat and a coolant flush.
-New alternator and power steering belts (High quality goodyear belts)
-New OEM oil pressure switch....was not broken but these are known to eventually leak so it is taken care of.
-New brakes all around.
-All weather strippings and rubber on the doors have been replaced because these are also known to go bad.
-New OEM main relay....was not bad but those usually burn out and cause intermittent no start issues so i beat it to the punch!
-AC system was converted to the new R134a....not even gonna go into how expensive this was!
There is virtually no rust what so ever on this accord, not even underneath! the paint is still very good and shines accept for 1 tiny scratch by the back light, and one by one of the door handles, both of which i have pictured. It has an alpine MP3 player, and Bose speakers. Everything works including all power windows, power locks, power mirrors, cruise control, power moon-roof, heat, and AC. With all the work done to this car, you can be sure that it will be ticking for thousands of miles and years to come! It's a bit dusty so it could use a wash!
This car is listed locally on craigslist #3604205409 and i can end this auction at anytime.
In the pictures the car has aftermarket wheels and tires on, those are not included. The car will come with the original Honda alloys and brand new all-season tires....The after market wheels are staggered with new ventus V12 tires, 225s in the front and 235s in the back and i am willing to sell those if you want them.
I am interested in trades for a CLEAN 1st gen Honda CR-V. I am only interested in 1999 to 2001 model years and it must be an EX or SE model and be AWD. I don't care if CRV has mechanical issues, even a non running CRV is fine as long as it is rust and accident free.
On Feb-11-13 at 18:49:34 PST, seller added the following information:
I have had a lot of emails asking if there is a "buy it now". So just to be fair to all bidders, i wanted to make sure everyone knows that the "buy it now" is the reserve, and i will end this auction early for whoever leaves a deposit and shows serious interest.

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
Andretti Autosport switches to Honda power
Tue, 22 Oct 2013The IndyCar grid was split pretty evenly this season between Honda and Chevy power. Thing is, most of the front-running teams have been running Chevrolet engines. Except for Chip Ganassi Racing, the team that fields the likes of Ryan Briscoe, Scott Fixon and Dario Franchitti - but earlier this month Chip Ganassi announced it was switching to Chevy engines too, just like most of the other pack-leading teams.
Honda insisted it didn't need a flagship team to replace Ganassi, but that's exactly what it announced this weekend with the signing of Andetti Autosport. The team run by Michael Andretti won a few IndyCar Series titles under Honda power (in 2004, 2005 and 2007), and two Indy 500 wins (in 2005 and 2007), but switched to the Bowtie two seasons ago, winning the championship last season. But the vast majority of the team's victories - 39 out of 48 race wins - have been powered by Honda, and the two outfits undoubtedly hope they'll return to the winner's circle again with their new multi-year partnership that takes effect next season.
NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
