1991 Honda Civic DX Hatchback 5 speed. has 251k on the body. all stock!  All in one piece, this car was used but loved.  I am the third owner, the 2nd owner titled it at 88k,  I personally know the guy I bought it from, and I bought it with 237k.  I bought this car with the purpose of commuting to my job, 25 miles one way highway, which I did for some time quite happily, but I finally had something catch my eye and I bought a newer Accord.

When I bought the car, its was smoking, so I had taken it to the shop and had a new motor put in (have receipt for parts and labor, also the it is the correct stock engine, no swaps) and timing belt and water pump done. Other repairs, most I have receipts for, alternator, rebuild shift linkage (genuine honda oem parts) brake pads & fluid (04/2013), starter, battery and terminals, muffler, brake master cylinder, matching winter tires with lots of tread mounted on the factory honda enkei rims.  At the beginning of this season I brought the exhaust midpipe to a welder and had any weak spots taken care of so there would be no upcoming issues/corrosion to deal with, and I also replaced the gaskets between the pipes.

The bad, one cylinder has a misfire.  I work up to and sometimes over 70 hours a week, so I am not rushing to fix this...especially with a new daily driver and another 25 year old car I have that I love more.  The valve gasket looks to be leaking, but this is old news and hasn't been a problem.  The inspection expired at the end of Nov/2013,  I took it in and it failed for hydrocarbon at low idle only and I have the paper.  It will need a legal sticker.  The A/C isnt ice cold anymore.

Other than the misfire, this car still starts up, does not smoke, idles smooth/consistent, does not jump all over.  Tracks straight, does not pull.  37 +/- mpg.  Clutch is good.  No cracks in dash.  Seats are great 9/10.  I had the driver seat bolster redone with matching fabric from another older honda, and the bolster restuffed.  Stock radio, works, and speakers still work well.  Heat is hot!  Tires have loads of tread, brakes are newer.  The rear defroster still works, the third wiper still works, the hatch light still works.  The tires are snow tires and with the recent snow I was driving this car for the snow tires, and it didnt even complain at -7 degrees even with a misfire at one cylinder for misfire.  

If your interested, ask questions or come and see.  Everyone has different standards and this car is 23 years old and was driven.  Its lucky its had good owners who did not beat it and it shows it considering the age and miles, but its USED, as is, and not a garage queen.  I tried to include all the info I can think of so I dont waste anyones time, but as always feel free to ask anything.

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.

McLaren pondering Honda-powered 911 killer?

Tue, 21 May 2013

As one of the premier sports cars in the world, the Porsche 911 is always driving around with a target on its rear-engined backside. If a new report is to be believed, the latest automaker with plans to build a 911-fighting sports coupe could be McLaren. Motor Trend is reporting that the recent news that Honda and McLaren are teaming up to build Formula One racecars could bear road-going fruit as well.
According to the article, the unnamed entry-level McLaren coupe may be powered by a Honda-sourced engine, but a detuned version of the 3.8-liter V8 from the MP4-12C is said to be more likely. All in, though, there is no solid information on the car just yet. As a reminder, M/T points out that the last time McLaren partnered up with a mainstream automaker, the world was introduced to the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

Honda CR-V updated for 2015

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

The CR-V was first introduced way back in the mid-90s, but Honda has done a good job of keeping it fresh. Now four generations in, the CR-V has been replaced every four or five years. And though the latest version just arrived on the scene a couple of years ago, Honda's giving it a refresh for the 2015 model year.
We've already spied these changes, but now, the Japanese automaker has officially released the image you see above, showing the updated 2015 CR-V with some cosmetic enhancements. The chrome bar at the bottom of the grille integrates smartly with the LEDs outlining the projector-beam headlights, capping a reshaped front bumper with new fog lamps.
Of course, the wheels and mirror caps have been redone as well, but we'll have to wait until Honda releases the full monte to see what the new CR-V looks like around back, inside and under the hood. All Honda is confirming at the moment is that the revised styling "portends the significant enhancements made to the 2015 CR-V" and that it will release further information on September 30 before the updated model goes on sale October 1, so watch this space for more.
