I bought this Del Sol several years ago for my son and girlfriend to take a cross country trip. The only requirements that we had were that it be economical and reliable. Having a Del Sol myself, which I wasn't willing to give up for six weeks during the summer, I was leaning toward finding one for him. Well, I found this one a few hours away from home. It had lots of new parts, all genuine Honda brand. The man I bought it from was the third owner. He was very anal about replacing parts. He would replace things before they were needed so that he wouldn't get stuck out on the road. All of the hoses, belts and even the fuel pump, which is not an easy job, had been replaced. So, I felt that the car would be reliable. And reliable it has been! My son put 7700 miles on it in six weeks. He got 38 - 40 MPG. And, spent a total of $85 in repairs! The flange between the exhaust pipe and catalytic converter came loose, so he had to have it repaired. Our search for an economical and reliable car was a success! It was such a great little car, I had to keep it around for a few more years. I've been driving it late into the fall and early in the spring when my Del Sol has been in storage. And my son and girlfriend have been using it periodically. But, now it is time to let it go. I have purchased a couple more toys and I'm out of room.
Now for the condition: Overall, for the year and mileage, it is in good condition. There is the usual rust over the right rear wheel and in front of both rear wheels. Not bad, and could be easily fixed. Otherwise the paint is pretty good, a few dings. The tires are good, have about 12,000 miles on them. The interior shows some wear, but overall in good shape. It has the original red stripe floor mats, which are hard to find. The rear window does not work. Ac blows cold. The engine runs great. The tranny shifts fine. I recently put new brakes and rotors on the rear, new muffler and the weatherstripping around the rear window. This is a great little car and has lots of miles left in it!

Japanese spark plug giant NGK pleads guilty to price fixing, to pay $52M fine
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice into price fixing in the automotive industry has nabbed one more company breaking the law. Japanese parts giant NGK Spark Plug Company agreed to plead guilty to a felony count of pricing fixing and bid rigging in the in the US District Court in Detroit. Its punishment is a $52.1 million criminal fine and to continue to cooperate with the DOJ's sleuthing into the problem.
According to the DOJ, NGK conspired to fix prices on spark plugs, standard oxygen sensors, and air fuel ratio sensors on vehicles from major automakers in the US, including the former DaimlerChrysler, Honda and Toyota, in a scheme that ran from at least January 2000 to July 2011. The charge claimed that the company and its co-conspirators held meetings where they agreed on bids and price quotes that were submitted to the automakers.
With the latest plea, the DOJ has caught 28 companies and 26 executives for price-fixing and bid rigging in the auto parts industry, and they have collected $2.4 billion in criminal fines. In 2013, the feds brought nine Japanese suppliers down at once, to collect $740 million. Scroll down to read the DOJ's complete announcement of the case.
Watch this to get excited about seeing Honda back in F1
Thu, 09 Oct 2014Honda engines were the dominant force in Formula One through portions of the '80s and '90s, powering championship-winning teams at Williams and McLaren. It tried to recapture some of that magic in the 2000s but wasn't nearly as successful. For the 2015 F1 season, the Japanese brand is returning to the paddock yet again as a partner with McLaren, and in a new video it's acknowledging all of those past victories while looking forward to the uncertain future.
The video offers yet another chance to hear Honda's mill, and this time it's doing a simulated lap of Suzuka. Unfortunately, it's not entirely a joy to listen to. Like most of the current F1 field, it's a bit droning and just lacks the piercing scream of yesteryear.
With so many years out of the F1 game and completely different engine rules to overcome, the brand is essentially coming back to the sport blind. But any new competitors are a welcome addition to a series that can sometimes get rather staid. Maybe Honda and McLaren can rekindle their old flame to win another championship.
Honda recalling nearly 900,000 Odyssey minivans over fire fear
Mon, 17 Mar 2014Honda is recalling nearly 900,000 2005 to 2010 model year Odyssey minivans due to a fault with the fuel pump that could cause them to catch fire.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration filling, if exposed to "acidic chemicals and a high temperature environment," the cover of the fuel pump strainer could crack and cause a gasoline smell in the minivan or possibly allow the fuel to leak out. Denso supplied the fuel pumps on the vehicles, and the report says that Honda first began studying the problem in October 2012 but didn't finally confirm the cause until March 6, 2014. The recall affects 886,815 Odysseys, and Honda has received 187 warranty claims related to the issue. However, there have been no fires or injures reported.
Unfortunately, Honda says that it currently doesn't have enough replacement fuel pumps to fix all of the vehicles and doesn't expect to have the parts ready until this summer. It's sending a letter to owners telling them about the recall and is sending a second notification when the pieces are at dealers. The entire notification including affected VINs can be viewed as a PDF here, and the shortened version from the NHTSA can be viewed below.
