$5900/160k miles/Rebuilt trans/new IMA battery/New 12V Battery/New EGR/New Motor Mounts
This car has not let me down once over the last 4 years/100k miles and is ready to go another 200k of uninterrupted service. I know there are cheaper insights available and this is expensive but there's a reason for it, it will be hard to find one of comparable quality with a Brand New IMA Battery with 50 miles on it with extensive service and care completed.
To put it lightly I love this car probably too much sometimes. Garage kept for the last 4 years and well protected from the sun with dash mat and sunshades whenever it was parked in the sun. I personally have completed all of the maintenance for the last 80k miles in strict following of the official honda service manual, which I will also pass on to you on a USB stick or email along with all my notes and bookmarks for service. I follow this down to the torque specs of the drain bolts and even buy exclusively Honda fluids, Greases and Sealants. I am not a certified Honda mechanic, but I am a Professional Mechanical Engineer that has extensive experience working on, racing, modifying, repairing vehicles for the last 15 years. If anything I pay much more attention and care more about the quality of a repair than any random dealership or shop. This car has been a necessity for my life over the last 4 years and it was not an option to have it fail, hence the extensive care.
Was planning on running this thing into 400k miles but with my new job I will no longer need a car, I hope this can move on to a good home and hypermile on for many more 100s of 1000s of miles.
History (10/10): Majority of records and Carfax available, CLEAN TITLE
Brakes (7/10): Replaced 50k miles ago, being that I use regen extensively they are rarely used.
Tires (6/10): 90k mile warranty, these have about 50k miles on them and plenty of life left
Transmission (9/10): Full rebuild at 110k, clutch still has lots of life left
Engine (9/10): Engine is in terrific shape, clean valvetrain, great compression, no leaks, no rattles, clean engine bay
Interior (7/10): New Floor mats, a few replaced trim pieces, driver seat shows some wear, a few interior trim pieces has noticeable scratches
Exterior (7/10): Rear bumper has been repainted, all exterior rubber trim has been replaced at 100k, only a few noticeable scratches here and
there, corner of windshield has a crack that is not spreading for the last 10k miles, overall for a 13yr old commuter car with 160k miles it will
be hard to find a cleaner comparable. Front Clips has chips from the freeway as expected, easy $250 to paint brand new.
