1999 Honda Prelude Base Coupe 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars

1999 Honda Prelude Base Coupe 2-Door 2.2L This has been my personal car for about 2 years. It is running fine and has no problems that prevents it from being used for transportation. It has never broken down, and I am only selling it because I needed a bigger vehicle. Are far as I know there are no major engine problems, however there are some smaller issues that you need to be aware of. I have been told that the following mechanical items have issues or need replacement: rotors, shocks/struts, front axels. As noted above, the suspension on this vehicle needs work. In addition, the vehicle has been lowered, therefore I wouldn't recommend driving the car on large stretches of highway until you get the suspension fixed. It does not take big bumps well at high speeds. In general, it just doesn't take big bumps well (railroad tracks, large inclines, etc.). I haven't had problems driving the car in the city and on short spans of highway. There is usually only a problem once you get around 65-70 mph and hit a dip in the road. The shocks don't handle it well. In addition to the mechanical issues listed above, the vehicle has the following cosmetic/electrical/other issues: front blinkers not working (crack in left one), crack in front windshield, belt squeals for a few seconds when you crank the car (longer if the AC is on), tear in driver-side floor mat (2-3 inches), piece broken off inside driver door handle (still works), outside driver handle doesn't sit flush after released. Aside the the issues above, everything on the car works. The paint is chipping in some places and there is normal wear as you expect from a used car. |

Sales incentive growth clustered around brands with few CUVs, trucks
Wed, 24 Sep 2014While it's arguably been around the longest, the dominance of the four-door sedan has been under threat for many years. As a further sign of the hurtin' that SUVs and crossovers have put on today's four-doors, a new report from Automotive News points to the increasing use of incentives by brands reliant on cars and light on CUVs and pickups.
Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and Kia have all been stung by double-digit increases in their incentives-to-transaction price ratio, according to AN, which cites data from TrueCar. Honda's ratio is up 14 percent, while Toyota, VW and Kia are up 18, 15 and 19 percent, respectively.
"Most of the incentive growth we have seen is in product segments with low demand - midsized or large sedans," TrueCar CEO John Krafcik told AN. "As this trend goes on, the brands with three-sedan strategies are going to be in worse shape on incentive spending than the crossover brands."
Honda Walking Assist Device begins US testing at Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago
Sun, 17 Nov 2013For years, we've been wondering what implications Honda's Asimo robot could have in the real world, and now we're starting to get a sense of that. Honda announced that it will begin its first US clinical studies of the Walking Assist Device at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago in an effort to provided improved mobility for people who have suffered a stroke. While the automotive tie-in here is pretty weak, this is the first time we've heard about this device since it was unveiled back in 2008.
Weighing in at six pounds, Honda's device is fitted to the waist and legs of patients to make it easier to walk, and the 22.2-volt lithium-ion battery provides enough electricity for more than an hour of operation. According to Honda's press release, which is posted below, up to 80 percent of the almost 800,000 stroke victims each year (in the US alone) are afflicted with limited mobility, so a medical aid like this could have a big impact in the real world.
British Honda CR-V looks tough, gets diesel and 9-speed auto
Wed, 01 Oct 2014Honda just took the wraps off of its thoroughly updated 2015 CR-V for the US, with a touch more style and improved powertrain to provide more torque and better fuel economy. In our First Drive, we found that all of the changes really focused the CUV even more towards the desires of its audience of mostly families. European crossover shoppers don't have to wait too long to see these tweaks for themselves and get a few exclusive upgrades of their own.
While US models get a torquier gasoline engine, Europe loves its diesels. Therefore, the CR-V over there benefits from a more powerful 1.6-liter i-DTEC oil-burner that produces 158 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This new addition is only available on the four-wheel drive version, and it replaces the previous 2.2-liter diesel in the lineup. Also as opposed to the CVT here, there's now an optional nine-speed automatic gearbox across the pond.
According to Honda, the new diesel with a six-speed manual drops emissions by 11 percent compared to its predecessor. Opting for the nine-speed auto makes things 20 percent cleaner in contrast to the previous 2.2-liter CR-V with an auto.
