- Kenwood ??? integrated satellite radio receiver for the DDX (hockey
puck looking thing that sits in the back deck below the glass).
- The back brakes have also been swapped within the past 3k with
aftermarkets from Autozone (didnt see the point in dropping 600 for
back breaks...). The tires (Falken 912s are in decent shape - 5k or 6k,
cant remember)
11. Service record: I have most.
12. Never leased, owned outright.


I bought this car from a past AZiner 2.5 years and have loved it ever since but I no longer need it due to recently receiving a company vehicle. There are a few paint issues but its mechanically bullet proof. All maintenance is up to date and was preformed by honda techs. Its has been spoiled by amsoil for the past 100,000 and runs like a top.

Im selling at KBB's fair market value price due to some cosmetic damage (I will post pics tomorrow or monday).

The car and I are in Santa Cruz and I work a lot but I would like to see her in good hands as soon as possible so if you want to take her out just IM me. I think the price is pretty fair so NO low ballers.

Thanks for looking,

Eli

...Im sure I have forgotten something so feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to respond as quick as possible.

i don't know your work situatuation, but what happens if you lose your work truck for a little bit.... with being without for a car for a bit (especially with it hopefully being paid off, and so much fun as the 6sp is)

not exactly the easiest to find (somewhat, but not compared to the automatic though, let alone in that color )

Seems you would be taking a loss if you sold it. So much car to let go for so little


Either way, good luck with sale

Believe it or not I don't really have many pics of this car. Its been rainy down here for the past few days but if it lets up ill take pics of everything and post. Are you in the market for a car?

I agree that its a lot of car and I am a bit sad to have put it up for sale but the price is fair based on KBB; cars are typically not investments, theres always a loss. I just dont have room to park it and I travel so much for work that I wouldnt really get time to drive it so someone else gets to take it over and enjoy it.

To be honest, Ill probably buy an E36 M3 for my next car. I want faster but dont really like making a car faster, Im more into just buying a faster car. Hence, the near complete lack of performance mods on my CL.

fixed , and those cars take very well to performance mods too (especially just being retuned/chipped)


but expensive as hell to maintain and fix though, especially compared to our cars

I cant answer that for him. Am I assuming correctly that your friend is in New Jersey? My advice would be to go online and call around. Car shipping typically goes through a brokerage type place and price can be negotiated. My zip is 95062. I will take pics today and post.

other then that rear bumper, everything else is just daily driving type of driving, not much you can do about it (ok the door ding is a little bit big, but nothing that would worry me too much)

and as far as that rear bumper, he tapped into something when parking noticable while at the same time easily repaintable if needed (it's just a bumper cover; and yeah it is a little out of alignment, but nothing that a removal, painting, then replacing should not be able to fix


and considering the mileage, it looks to be in great shape for the body and such (engine bay is a little dusty, but again nothing that a pressure washer can't fix)


edit: all the wheels also look like no curb rash either, which is always a very good positive

I was quoted at 550 to repaint front and rear bumpers and have the door ding removed (hence using the lowest KBB for my price). Im on car 8 and have never cleaned an engine, I know its possible but I just dont like the idea of getting water near it.

never even noticed that at first , just looks like it is peeling paint from improper prep from being painted before


and as far as getting water near anything, everything in the engine compartment should be water resistant, with being sealed and all to prevent corrosion (other then the battery posts, but easy enough to dry off though), and the other big one is not spray the air filter, but that is easy enough with tossing a plastic bag over it, to prevent any water intrusion into the engine (but even then with the intake tube pointing down, it should basically self drain anyways)


so really it is actually pretty safe for spraying down a modern engine bay with water (and it already gets wet when you drive down the road), so biggest thing i would spray is just don't put a pressure washer in there, and put too much water pressure in there, but something like a garden hose and house hold water should cause no issues (ok the belt may squeal a little when first started, but once they dry they should go back to being quiet and normal)

Yeah, I delt with the distance issue time and time again when I was looking to buy this car. I understand. Good luck on your friend's search.

Come on people, I thought this was a sought after vehicle...

it is but me got no


but i just realized something though, i know somebody that needs a car, let me check with them tomorrow, if they be interested



PS: can you take a couple of pictures of the undercarriage, I see Missouri plates on it; and I HATE RUST (a little bit is alright, but do not want it to be too bad though (like the northeast's with their salt covered roads), since i will probably be the one maintaining it afterall

Go to Uship.com, fill out the information, and different car shippers will contact you with different quotes. That's how I got my car from across the country

You said all the maintenance is up to date so does that mean the timing belt was done @ or around 100K miles?
