RARE FIND! PROFESSIONALLY SERVICED SINCE NEW; ALL RECEIPTS ARE AVAILABLE!

I am assisting a family friend with the sale of her incredibly well-maintained sedan. I have sold on eBay for 15 years, and have a perfect feedback score. I recently sold my own vehicle on eBay sight unseen to a very satisfied buyer. I tell it like it is so there will be no surprises. This Honda EX is so nice that I am confident even an out-of-state (sight unseen) buyer will be pleased. As the owner was buying her new car, the dealership, two salesman, and one mechanic were all trying to get this Honda from her!

This Honda Accord EX was purchased brand new in Dublin, CA by the current owner, a retired woman. Car was mostly garaged since new. All maintenance services were completed at the dealer, or at local Honda specialists, since new. She has every single service receipt since 1999 (see picture). Every recommended service has been completed on schedule, plus additional services above and beyond factory recommendations were done to provide the current owner peace of mind. Engine oil changed every 3,000 miles! Transmission oil, antifreeze coolant, spark plugs, filters, and other items have been changed multiple times. Tires frequently rotated. Brakes replaced early. Battery replaced early. The car received a $378.52 full service and inspection in preparation for sale and found no defects. This inspection was completed only one hundred (100) miles ago.

Too many services to list (see photo of receipts), but these are some of the larger items completed:

Factory 7.5K service @ 7,610 miles. Factory 15K service @ 15,219. Factory 22.5K service @ 24,087. Factory recommended 30K service @ 29,358. Factory recommended 37.5K service @ 35,852.

TIRES ONLY HAVE 13K USE; FULL SERVICE COMPLETED LAST MONTH.

The car drives nice, like you would expect. No noises, squeaks, rattles, pulling to one side, steering wheel shake, or anything along those lines. If you are looking for a good commuter or family car, this is the one. Non-smoker interior. No cat, dog, pets, or kids. The car has only been washed, not detailed, so the center console has some soiling. Otherwise, interior looks excellent, except for two cosmetic defects in the driver's door panel. One of these is hardly visible with the door closed. A/C blows cold. Factory 6 speaker AM/FM/CD player. Cloth interior. One rear electric door locks stick on occasion, but works manually OK. Ignition key needs a little jiggle to turn. Factory front & rear floor mats included. Original keys & original remotes included.

Clean title. Not salvage. Original steel and paint, with the exception of the rear bumper cover. The rear bumper cover was replaced in 1999 due to a minor incident and repainted. The bumper cover paint color is slightly off from the rest of the body, and also the bumper cover clearcoat is starting to flake. There are a few golf ball size dents due to the owner living in a golf course community (see photos). There is a scrape on the rear driver's wheel opening (see photo). A few other light scratches that you would expect from normal use.

Winning bidder must make contact within 24 hours of the end of the auction to make payment arrangements. Full payment due by Friday following auction. Car will not be released until funds are received and cleared. Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick-up or shipping. If you are a California buyer, allow time for a DMV or AAA visit to ensure a proper transfer of ownership. California License Plate Registration is current to 2/20/2014. California Smog Certificate (if needed) will be provided to buyer.

Please send any questions along with your phone number. The vehicle owner will contact you. This is a private party sale and vehicle is sold in "as-is" condition with no warranty expressed or implied from original owner to winning bidder.

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.

Five automakers now being investigated by NHTSA for airbag woes

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

It appears that Toyota's renotification to owners of recalled vehicles from last year is just the tip of the iceberg for what could potentially be a much larger industry-wide recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation investigation into roughly 1.1 million vehicles from Chrysler, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota and parts supplier Takata regarding faulty airbag inflators in several models.
NHTSA has received six reports - three directly, two from Takata and one from Toyota - of vehicles with ruptured airbag inflators from 2002-2006, which resulted in three injuries. So far, all six incidents have occurred in high humidity areas like Florida and Puerto Rico. According to Toyota's latest recall announcement, the inflators may have an improper propellant that could cause it to rupture in a crash and the bag to deploy abnormally.
This new investigation follows a previous recall from April 2013 of about 3.4 million vehicles worldwide for the airbag inflators from Takata. As Autoblog reported, Toyota jumpstarted the new situation when it found that the original list of serial numbers for the faulty part was incomplete and discovered more cars in need of replacement. Honda and Nissan told us that they were investigating whether further models would need called in again as well. Mazda told Autoblog: "Regarding the current Takata situation, we're working closely with NHTSA and investigating the situation, but nothing else to report at this time." Chrysler Group responded to us with the statement: "Chrysler Group engineers are conducting the appropriate analysis. The Company will cooperate fully with the National Highway Traffic Administration."

Refreshed Honda Civic's first commercial is a minor mea culpa

Thu, 27 Dec 2012

Honda has officially rolled out the first ad for the 2013 Civic. The one-minute spot focuses on a number of clever inventions that improve on old themes, from rocket-powered parachutes to hover bikes and smart window shades, before shifting to the redesigned compact. Set to Santigold's "Disparate Youth," the ad culminates with the phrase, "Things can always be better." This is likely as close as we'll come to hearing Honda say, "we could have done better."
Unveiled at the 2012 LA Auto Show, the 2013 Civic features revised front and rear fascias, nicer cabin materials and an updated suspension just one year after the ninth-generation model debuted. That car received scaling reviews from critics, most notably Consumer Reports, who felt the 2012 Civic was a step backwards for a company known for producing high-quality, economical vehicles. You can check out the full ad for the 2013 Civic below before it debuts during the Rose Bowl.
