For Sale: My wife's 1989 Honda CRX DX, automatic transmission, 164,186 miles, engine completely rebuilt in 2010, original 1.5l (1493cc) D15B2 SOHC engine and tranny. We get 33 mpg in town and 36 mpg on the highway at 75mph.
We bought this car in 2006 with 109,421 miles on it. She used it as a daily driver (4 mile commute, $27 of gas per month!) until we added to our family, and now we don't need a two seater (so I am told). The hot/cold switch is broken on the climate control, so I manually open and close the gate valve under the hood twice a year to switch the heater on/off. The fan controls do work. The AC blows 79 degrees, so it isn't cold. But you don't sweat. I have never had it looked at, but it hasn't gotten worse. The CD radio works fine, but it is 8 years old. We use a FM broadcaster for the ipod. The driver's seat has a seat cover that is the correct color. There is a 6"x2" hole in the outside bolster and a 2"x2" hole on the "bottom bolster". We don't smoke or have dogs. There is some old bondo that has started to crack at the front of the passenger side front fender (see photos). It looks great from ten feet away. This shouldn't be a big deal, and white is easy to match. But I don't enjoy body work; I'm an engine guy.The window tinting has some slight issues, but that is about it.

Wow. That made me tired just typing that. I know I did more work, but I have misplaced the receipts for the following: lower timing belt cover, water pump, heater hoses, radiator cap, grounding strap, windshield, valve job with engine rebuild, rear brake shoes, front struts/shocks, steering rack and three other tires (not listed above). All five tires have a lot of tread on them.
Included with the car is the owners manual, the Haynes Repair Guidebook (used) and these new parts: valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, many other gaskets, rear brake shoes, Full size spare on Honda rim, fuel filter. Also included are these used parts that are all still in good working order: spark plug wires, spark plugs x8, trunk latch, timing belt, hood hinges, 2 rotor buttons, spare storage compartment for back area-matching blue, exhaust manifold gasket, working water pump, working starter, interior AC controls ($177 on eBay), tie rod ends, working brake master cylinder, good heater hoses, rubber exhaust hangers x3, good radiator hoses, alternator belt and AC belt. Not in working order, but to prove I was in there, I have the old bearings and piston rings.
This car has manual mirrors and windows. All gauges work. It runs smooth and drives great. The pre-OBD2 diagnosis system works fine, but the check engine light isn't illuminated. The paint is shiny. We kept it in the car port a lot because it is so small compared to our other cars. I have a clear title and keys in hand. It sips gas. I'm not interested in a trade unless it is a rear-wheel drive car from Italy or Germany. Please contact me if you would like to see more photos. Take note of my seller rating and bid knowing I want to keep my 100% satisfaction rating by giving you a fair and honest deal. If you are brand new to eBay, please contact me before biding. Please call or text me at 904 -710-752two. My name is Chris. The car is for sale locally, so this ad may disappear.

2015 Fit Kit is the perfect DIY car from Honda
Mon, 31 Mar 2014Ah... let the April Fools' Day automotive jokes begin. Honda is kicking things off, following up on last year's Honda Hair joke with a prank video featuring the 2015 Honda Fit.
It's called the Fit Kit, and as you might guess, it's a way to build your own version of the redesigned hatchback. There are 180,000 mechanical parts in the kit - some delivered by drone - but that doesn't seem at all daunting to the pair of obnoxious, self-described tinkerers that star in the Fit Kit ad.
Honestly, the video is pretty entertaining, with some biting satire of the DIY movement and its attendant cadre of mustachioed hipsters. Scroll down and have a look at both the video and the Fit Kit press release from Honda.
Refreshed 2014 Honda Civic Coupe to bow at SEMA
Fri, 25 Oct 2013Honda has announced plans to bring a refreshed, 2014 Honda Civic Coupe to the 2013 SEMA Show, set to kick off on November 5. Honda's struggles with the ninth-generation Civic have been widely publicized, and while the 2013 model year sedan has seen a significant overhaul, the two-door is now getting some additional enhancements for 2014.
Honda has released one teaser image of the Civic Si Coupe to go along with the announcement, but we can discern a few things. The Si Coupe now features a larger rear spoiler, along with a restyled, more aggressive rear bumper, complete with a diffuser. The taillights look smoked, and the wheels look larger than the current Si's alloys.
Besides those details, it looks like we'll be waiting until November 5 to see just what Honda has in store for the Civic. Take a look below for the full press release from Honda.
Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.
