Hello and Thanks for checking out my car.
If you think this car looks familiar, I've listed this vehicle before, but at the time it had a custom vehicle wrap on it and I think that was limiting it's appeal. Since the last time I've listed it (last Summer I think), I've removed the wrap and actually had the whole car exterior professionally repainted (at Impact Collision Center, Tulsa OK) at a cost of $4,500. As much as I'd like to keep the car, in the back of my mind I know I need to let it go, I've had this car for about 12 years now and I'm ready for something different. Anyway, on to the car...
Engine:

Matching manual transmission (car was automatic)
New Radiator at time of Motor Swap

AEM Cold Air Intake
Custom Bent Exhaust, with midpipe to keep it quieter, but increase performance.
Skunk 2 Muffler

TEIN Super Street Coilovers
Factory Parts that connect to coilovers were color matched to TEIN Green
Rear Trailing Arms and Rear Calipers were replaced when suspension was installed
AEM Big Brake Kit (required upgrade to '97 VTEC delsol from knuckles first, these brakes are HUGE!)
EBC Green Stuff Brake Pads
16" Rota Grid Wheels with color matched lip
Nitto NeoGen Tires, size 205/45 R16 87V
Spoon Sports front Strut Bar

Carbon Fiber Garnishes on vents/gauges/door switches
Seats are from a Mazdaspeed Protge and they recline/lift/lower/slide

2 JL w6 10" Subs in custom Trunk enclosure (roof can still be placed in trunk, as well as full size spare!
Subs can be deactivated with a factory integrated switch, if you want to turn them off.
Windshield mounted amplified antenna
Clear door Glass/Windshield, Tinted rear Glass
Exterior:
Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hood
Shaved door Handles with Autoloc remote to open
Shaved Gas fill and Antenna
Hidden Rear Trunk Release, no key hole

Second set of hidden driving lights are white (in lower bumper area)
JDM 1 Piece Headlights (real OEM Honda parts)
JDM Licence plate fillers
GT Factory "vertical" door hinges
Rolled Fender Lips (in case you want to lower the coilovers all the way down)
Stock Front and Rear Bumpers and Side Skirts
OK, here's the good and the bad of the car.
Overall, it really is a good car, I've driven it from coast to coast 1 time (Philly, PA to Laguna Beach, CA) and it made the trip flawlessly. It's a good driving car, no shakes, vibrations, pulling, none of that. It gets a lot of attention, especially if you open the doors vertically to get out (I just open them as far as they go "regular" and scoot out). The stereo system is awesome, very clear and very little rattle from the trunk, there are various spots of dynamat back there. Almost all the sound is sent forward when the trunk is closed. The head unit can be finicky, it's about 12 years old, and sometimes you have to spin the knob 5 or 6 times to get the volume to start turning up, but once it goes it's fine, typically first thing in the morning. Also, it can be tricky with CD's when you first put them in, but once they are in it works. I've come to learn how to make them work, you may want to replace just the head unit if it gives you trouble, the rest of the sound system is good (or just rely on the 6 disk changer). As I stated above, the car has recently been repainted. It's a professional job, and looks great, but there is a small line of overspray in the drivers door jamb, not major. I have a small bottle of touch up paint as well, in case you need it. I mentioned it's 3rd gear chirp. This is something new, but if I try shifting too fast out of 2nd to 3rd, it does make a small noise. It has never popped out of gear or caused any issue, but I want to give full disclosure about the car. I also have a few extras, an extra ECU (mentioned above), a full set of door glass (roll-up and wing windows that are tinted), and replacement window regulators. I think I have the stock muffler upstairs as well.
I really encourage you to look at the car before bidding if possible. I feel it's in really great shape, and will answer any questions you may have about it. Car is located near Tulsa Oklahoma. I will also help with delivery (cost can be determined on distance) as long as payment for vehicle and delivery charge is made prior to delivery. There is a fair reserve set on the car, well within what the car is worth.
Thanks!

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.

The Honda NSX Concept-GT is one sexy machine, and it looks to be a very effective tool on a race circuit. But Honda's latest web spot leads us to believe that it also can be used to make tea.
In the video, the racecar is hooked up to an apparatus that uses tubing to harness the energy from the car's 500-horsepower hybrid drive system, using it to boil water. The novel tea-making technique reminds us a bit of a couple other inventive Honda commercials, namely Hands and Cog.
Watch the NSX ad below, and be sure to turn the sound up to hear that glorious engine note.

Honda has partnered up with Apple to bring Siri to the Accord, Acura RDX and ILX. Owners who have an iPhone running iOS 6 will be able to ask the software to perform a number of tasks via voice command using the vehicle's on board microphone and speaker systems. What's more, the tech will put the iPhone into an "eyes free" mode, which turns the screen off to help reduce distraction while driving. Honda says it has reworked its Bluetooth and HandsFreeLink systems to accommodate the Siri functionality. While the tech will only be available on three of the company's models right now, we imagine it won't be long before it shows up elsewhere.
As you may recall, Chevrolet integrated Siri into its products with vehicles like the Spark and Sonic, but Mercedes-Benz and Chrysler have also toyed with the tech to varying degrees. The seamless voice command seems to be light years ahead of the tech manufacturers are currently playing with. Check out the full press release from Honda below for more information.
