Recent maintenance: New Optima dual purpose starting/deep cycle Yellow Top Battery. New timing belt 2008 (driven very lightly since then). New alternator. Newer spark plugs, wires, and valve cover gaskets. New console and speed sensor. A $700 Water Pump and Timing Belt Repair was done in 2008. Turbo muffler and new belts in 2007. New tires on front replaced in the beginning of ’08. I have all repair records. All window tint.
Well-maintained very fuel efficient vehicle, ugly but reliable gets ~25/38 miles per gallon town/highway. Good work car, first car, student car, or basic point A-to-B transportation. This durable reliable car runs like a champ, quick and peppy, 1.5 Liter engine drives like an Si due to increased air intake and custom turbo muffler. This make/year/model is well sought after by enthusiasts. Fun to drive. Starts up every time. Change parts, customize if you're inclined. Hondas are known to last well into 300k+ mileages and beyond. This one only has 182k. This car could get plenty more mileage with the right owner.
*No AC or radio (fan relay switch likely, and radio just needs rewiring, speakers still work). Like I said, basic A-to-B transportation. A few quirks and blemishes, mostly cosmetic. Some rust here and there. Some dents. Right side door has a dent, back bumper has slight crease. Driver side window is offtrack. You'll hear the right front wheel bearing case vibrates annoyingly, it's been like that for years. It's a cheap part, just hard to get to. Back tail fin is removed. Back hatch spring latch needs repair. *note: Hatch Door is loose needs to be sealed to avoid carbon monoxide getting into the cargo area, or else drive with the windows open! Driver’s side door handle and small outside panel needs repair, driver side door won't lock from outside, must be entered from passenger side when locked. A few repairs it may need: front left CV boot axle, front bearings, oil leak (probably valve gaskets), could use 2 tires soon. I still drive this car around town to run errands. It runs good. I'm the 3rd owner.
Thanks for looking! Must have Paypal. Comes with Spare Key, Owner's Manual, Clean Title, & All Repair Records. Local pickup.
