You already know this is a rare car, and it's a Southern rust-free example. Would not sell after getting it just right, but we got an even better Texas rust-free car last month.. I bought this wagon in Richmond VA in March 2011 with 94K miles, so it has only seen three NH winters, and those were lightly driven by my wife, who worked 2-3 days a week and it was garaged otherwise. When I bought it, the CarFax indicated it started life in upstate NY briefly, then to PA, but most of its life in VA. It was sold by a dealer, so of course he didn't fix anything, and I immediately had to put in a new radiator and fix the E-brake. It got a new timing belt and water pump at 106,485, and a new exhaust system last year.  Last week it got a new front wheel bearing so that required re-alignment, now that's all set. You won't have to go through that expense again, absolutely everything works now.  Look at the photos: there's no rust in the usual places, and it does not appear to have been repainted, look at that shine!!.

eBay now has an odd way of walking you through the options and equipment, so hopefully I got everything listed.  The best thing about EX trim, it comes with EVerything, including moonroof and ABS brakes
.  The CD player is not original, it's a high-end SONY 52WX-4, and it's labeled 'satellite ready' but I never tried Sirius, etc..  It has a remote which is easier to use than the itty-bitty buttons down there on the radio.
The AC is cold, I've never had to service it, and get this:  The ABS STILL WORKS!!!!
The (full size) spare and tools have never been used, it still has original air. This car came with alloys and worn-out tires, so I replaced with these rims, 96-97 wheel covers, and Bridgestone Potenzas which are still about 75%.
It still has the luggage space cover, in good shape..
We don't smoke, and the car didn't smell like smoke when I bought it, but there was a (clumsy) smoker in its previous life, because there are three slight singes in the nap of the fabric in the drivers seat.  It's nowhere near burned through, and no discoloration.
Headlights are crystal clear, as is the windshield, no sandblasting or cracks or pits.
Bid without hesitation, this car is fine, needs nothing, drive anywhere in comfort and economy.

 Remote entry does work, keyfob not pictured.  I can't believe there's another identical car on eBay, started the same day as mine, while I was struggling with my photos.


On May-03-14 at 05:02:12 PDT, seller added the following information:

 Engine, 2.2 liter not 2.4.  This engine came only in EX version on this series of Accords, later all engines called Vtek.  Different head than the base engine.
Londonderry borders the Manchester airport, if you fly in to pick up.  Good luck bidding.

Honda's Euro Civic hatch getting facelift, too

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Honda's freshening of the Civic line isn't just limited to the North American market, as proven by these images of the Euro-spec model testing on Her Majesty's motorways.
According to our spies, this new Civic boasts a heavily restyled front fascia, with headlights and taillights that draw a quite a bit of inspiration from the Civic Type R Concept from the 2014 Geneva Motor Show.
The restyled front fascia has a sportier lean, with more significant lateral intakes and what looks like a slightly larger lower intake. It's more difficult to make out details on the rear of the car, although we can spot a modest little diffuser and a larger integrated spoiler.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The 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.
