History

 

Up for sale is my 2006 Honda Civic LX. It has 90,776 miles on it as of this writing, 45,000 of those miles put on by me in the past 2 1/2 years I have owned it. I bought this car as an economical way to get back and forth to a project I was at which was 150 miles from home. I bought the car from a local seller myself.  The CarFAX I ran at the time showed it to be clean and well maintained.  When I went and drove it, I could see it was correct.   Since the project ended in late 2011, I have used this car as my primary work car. Since I travel a lot as part of my job, many of my miles are highway to and from airports. This car has given me excellent service and gets excellent mileage. On the highway with cruise, it will easily get 37-39 mpg. Worst I have seen in city type driving is the low 30s mpg. A very economical car. So why am I selling? Just don't need it. My wife has a van and I have a truck that serves us well and we don't need a third car setting around.

Features

Although this is an LX model, I did upgrade the wheels on this car to those you would find on an EX or sportier model. I bought Honda OEM wheels and had new tires, Toyo Extensa, installed on the car. I think they make the car look good. I also installed the Honda OEM Aux inport port for the radio and use it with a Bluetooth adapter.

Condition

Although this car has been very well maintained, with me performing all the regular oil and filter changes (including regular transmission fluid drain and fills), this car is by no means perfect.  I will list the items below any buyer should be aware of:

1.) In 2012 I struck a deer on the way back from Cincinnati on OH-32.  The car, although drivable, needed repair to bring it back to the condition you see in the pictures.  A new hood, grille, radiator and A/C coil were replaced on the car with appropriate paint work to make the car match.  The car has driven perfect for me, just like it did before the deer strike.  The lost photo in this ad shows the amount of damage that was taken from the deer hit.

2.)  On the passenger side there are a couple of door dings, one on each door.  The one on the rear passenger door was there when I bought the car and is the most noticeable in the pictures.  The one on the front passenger door is a standard parking lot door ding that I received while at the Columbus Airport during one of my trips.

3.) On the post of the driver side windshield it is dented and scratched (see pictures).  This was due to a coal truck kicking up a rock as I was driving in western Virginia visiting a plant.  I guess I was lucky it did not hit the window, but it did dent the paint as you can see.

4.) On the painted air dam at the bottom front of the car you will see paint missing.  This is due to parking too close to a curb at the Columbus Airport (hard to see when covered with snow).  No damage to car, but as you can see, the paint was taken off.

5.)  The Toyo tires wear very slowly, meaning they are hard.  Good to drive on, but they have gotten noisy as they have aged.  Civics are not known for their sound isolation and you can hear the tires.

6.)  The car is missing the jack.  It came this way to me.  I do not plan on including a jack in this sale.  If it is insisted upon, I will just buy a jack form Walmart but that is it.

 

The car although in great shape and fun to drive is being sold with no warranty and as-is.  To my knowledge there are no pending issues with the car, but it does have 91K miles on it.  This is a good, solid car.  Please contact me with any questions you may have.

Honda boss says Chinese drivers don't want green cars

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

According to The Wall Street Journal, Honda CEO Takanobu Ito believes that China's nascent car-buying demographic isn't all that interested in hybrid cars - at least not yet. The emissions story doesn't resonate with them, and certainly not for the higher purchase premium such models usually carry. What they really want, Ito believes, is reliable, affordable cars that fit their needs. When it comes to Honda sales, the numbers would appear to jibe with his thoughts: Honda sold 598,577 vehicles in China last year through its two joint ventures, yet just 542 of them were hybrids - not even a tenth of a percent. However, Toyota sold 840,500 cars in China last year, and two percent of that total, 17,300 units, were hybrids, which is closer to the still-piddling three-percent ratio of sales that Toyota posted in the US last year.
Honda offers the Insight, Fit Hybrid and CR-Z in China and plans to make components for its Integrated Motor Assist hybrid system there from next year, the hope being it will reduce the cost of hybrid cars for local buyers. That was one part of the plan Honda laid out last year to popularize its IMA system in China. Other initiatives include the introduction of a new hybrid system for mid-sized and large vehicles and a plug-in hybrid. Among the four new vehicles Honda showed during this weekend's press day for the Shanghai Motor Show (including the Concept M minivan pictured above) there was not a single hybrid among them.

Honda unveils new 3.5-liter racing engine

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

Honda is following Ford's lead and debuting the second twin-turbocharged V6 to be used by Daytona Prototypes in the United Sports Car Championship. The wait won't be long to see it on track because the new engine will debut with the Starworks Motorsport team in a Riley Gen3 prototype chassis at the 12 Hours of Sebring from March 12-15.
The new HR35TT engine is based on Honda's J35 production V6 found in a variety of its models, including the current Accord. The racing version benefits from dry sump lubrication, but is still similar to the production version with an aluminum block, direct injection and single overhead camshafts. It is fueled by 100-octane E10 fuel, but like many racing engines, exact power figures have not been released.
Starworks has had a close relationship with Honda since it won the LMP2 class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2012 with a Honda Performance Development ARX-03b chassis and Honda engine. We can't wait to see this new mill hit the track, and see how it fairs against Chip Ganassi Racing's EcoBoost-powered Riley. Scroll down to read the press release for the full details.

Honda launches new Fit in Japan, has big expectations for North America

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Honda has officially launched the Fit sub-compact in its home market, ahead of its eventual arrival in North America. The third-generation Fit is wildly important for Honda, with the company's president, Takanobu Ito, saying, "This is the most important model."
The third-generation Fit is a ground-up reworking of the car that we've come to know. It will pioneer Honda's new design language, Exciting H Design (seriously) and will also be the very first Fit to be manufactured in North America. Thanks to a Mexican factory that is scheduled to open in the spring of 2014, Honda will be able to produce 200,000 Fits for the North American market in North America, saving the brand a huge amount of cash.
As for that Exciting H Design, it's meant to be sleeker and more modern, according to Automotive News. It's not bad looking, but the overall design is far less important than what's under that hood. The vehicle you see above is a Fit RS, which has quite a resemblance to the rumored Fit Mugen. There's not a lot of detail on this model, but based on looks alone, we certainly hope it'll be coming to the North American market - it'd make a great Fit Sport. A hybrid variant will also come to the US market, and that car is returning impressive numbers on the Japanese cycle: 86 miles per gallon so far, thanks to the combination of an 1.5-liter, Atkinson-cycle, four-cylinder engine and a seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission. That's a 35-percent improvement over the current, JDM Fit Hybrid.
