Please examine pictures because what you see is what you get. The hood has a few rock chips in it. There is a small rust spot in the plate area of the hatch and some minor rust around the rear right wheel well.

A new front windshield can be installed for around $200 if you do your homework. The transmission needs replacement or work (See description of issue below) and new front brake rotors, pads, wheel bearings. The passenger side sliding door handle needs to be installed. If you are a mechanic this may be your lucky day.""

2000 Honda Odyssey LX. No reserve. Transmission needs work. The van is in Mt. Pleasant Michigan. Buyer must make arrangements for pickup and transportation of the vehicle. Please make arrangements through me if you wish to see the car. The vehicle is at my parents' house.

I am selling my 2000 Honda Odyssey LX to the highest bidder. I purchased the van from the original owner. The odometer reads 131,700. I used the vehicle for freeway driving between Michigan and Ohio. It has 17 inch wheels and tires with 10,000 miles on tires. I also installed a new stereo just prior to moving. USB inputs and a CD player are included.

When I moved out of Michigan 10 months ago the van was put in storage.

Routine maintenance is all up to date. When my father went to start the van it started without any hesitation. Proper procedures were followed to protect the engine while vehicle was in storage.

The front rotors, pads and bearings need replacing. The replacement of bearings and brakes can be performed at the same time which will reduce labor costs if you plan to have the work done by someone else.

Also the driver's side exterior sliding door needs replacing (See picture). This requires removal of the inside sliding door panel. I replaced the passenger side one about a year ago and it took less than 30 minutes. A new door handle will be included with van.

I had planned to do this work myself and will include the following new parts with van purchase:

1. Two new front wheel bearings,

2. New pads and rotors for front wheels.

3. New rear driver's side sliding exterior door handle

The van shows normal wear and tear for its age. It has a dent on the passenger side sliding door. Please examine pictures closely. What you see is what you get. These pictures were taken yesterday. The hood has a few rock chips in it. Also if you look at the front windshield there is a crack that runs across the bottom. It does not obstruct the line of sight and does not leak. This occured several years ago and it has been fine. A new front windshield can be purchased and installed for around $200 if you do your homework.

The transmission fluid has been changed 4 times or every 15000 miles since I purchased the vehicle. At approximately 120000 the transmission began to "bang" when put in drive. Through my investigation on the internet I learned this is a common problem for the Honda Odyssey. I assumed I would eventually be replacing the transmission but because this was not the vehicle I used for daily commuting, I planned to drive it until the transmission died. I mainly used the vehicle for freeway trips and had been manually shifting the gears to reduce the severity of the "bang." Once on the freeway I would leave it in overdrive.

If there is a transmission expert out there it may be a simple fix, but with all the information on line regarding Honda Odyssey transmissions it seems that replacement is the only sure way to take care of the transmission issue. There are two very highly rated transmission shops listed on ebay who charge around $1200 for a warrantied rebuilt transmission. I had planned to do the work myself but that day never came as it still can be driven the way I described above. My current transmission never overheated that I am aware of, and the van has not been used to tow a trailer. It is recommended that when replaced, an external transmission filter and a transmission cooler be installed. These can be purchased for under $50 each.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask prior to auction end. Thanks for looking.

Honda slaps Legend name on JDM Acura RLX

Mon, 10 Nov 2014

It's been eighteen years since we last saw the Legend nameplate in Acura showrooms here in the US, but in Japan it's still very much alive as Honda's flagship sedan. And now the Japanese automaker has revealed the latest generation.
Set to go on sale across Japan on January 22 - 30 years since the nameplate was introduced - the new Honda Legend is essentially the same model we already know in the States as the new Acura RLX. Only by "essentially," we mean exactly. It is the RLX, only with Honda badges instead of Acura ones. The manufacturer hasn't even changed the grille or the wheels.
Although the RLX is being offered Stateside in two forms, the new JDM Honda Legend will only come in one form, equivalent to our Sport Hybrid, with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive and a hybrid powertrain pairing a 3.5-liter V6 to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission with integrated electric motor. For the privilege of owning the most luxurious car Honda makes, Japanese customers will have to pony up ¥6,800,000 - which about adds up to $59,950 we'd pay for an RLX Sport Hybrid.

Acura built just 91 examples of the ILX last month, here's why

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

The short life of the Acura ILX has been vexed by one glaringly odd standard equipment choice, mediocre reviews, getting outsold by its competition as it posted slower-than-projected sales and a pledge by Honda to upgrade its supposedly upgraded offering. Therefore, when Automotive News reports that just 91 of the Civic-based Acura sedans were manufactured last month - after a string of production months in double-digits - it would be easy to press the button for the alarm bells.
But that would be hasty, because it is actually the 2013 Honda Civic that is crimping the production pipeline of the ILX. The vastly higher sales numbers of the Honda meant that all three North American plants that produce it needed to crank up output to satisfy dealer inventory needs, including the Greenburg, Indiana plant that makes both the Civic and the ILX. As the classic guns-vs-butter Economy 101 lesson taught us - in which making more of one necessarily means making less of the other - well, the Civic is the gun.
Honda prepared for this eventuality by cranking out the Acuras while it got ready for Civic production. The ILX has held steady at about 500 units shy of company projections every month, and the current inventory represents about 90 days worth of sales. That makes Greenburg's ostensibly low numbers in line with the realities of the ILX, and the situation probably won't change much as Acura gets ready for the improved 2014 ILX.

Honda shines the spotlight on Project Drive-In success

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Project Drive-In, a Honda-sponsored campaign to save drive-in theaters across the country, is beginning to bear fruit, as the first theaters have been informed that they'll be getting free digital projectors. Many theaters still use 35-millimeter film, which is being phased out rather aggressively in the movie industry. The move to digital, meanwhile, requires nearly a six-figure investment, forcing many drive-ins to close up shop for good.
The first phase of the campaign saw the public vote for their favorite drive-in, with the top five getting a free digital projector, courtesy of Honda. There's some touching reaction videos of the owners being informed that they'd won down below. The next phase in the program takes place on Indiegogo, where Project Drive-In is trying to raise $100,000 for the drive-in that's gotten the next highest number of votes. If the Indiegogo campaign reaches that figure before its expiration on October 7, it'll make the donation and reset the meter to save another theater.
Take a look down below for the video from Honda on Project Drive-In, and then do yourselves a favor, and head over to the Project Drive-In Indiegogo campaign, and make a donation.
