Car is in good condition. If a new car were a 10, I'd give this an 8.75; after all it is 9 years old. I'm a non-smoker, the second owner, and the car has never been smoked in as far as I know. This car has a brand new battery pack, 3 hybrid control units and the hybrid electric motor inverter all replaced under warranty by the local Honda dealership (receipt attached). The warrantys on these cars have been extended, and I'm not sure how long this car has, but Honda told me 10 years on the battery. I don't know if that means from when it was installed, or for the age of the car (I'd guess the age of the car). The car also has a Rostra cruise control, JVC 12 Disc CD changer capable of playing CD-RW's and MP3's and a Magellan Maestro 3100 GPS installed. The car was in a small accident, approximately 17000 miles ago, before I purchased it, but was fixed properly and inspected by the state of Florida who then issued a rebuilt title. Odometer reading is actual, not exempt and I’ve included a scan of the title in the photo gallery available in the link at the bottom of this paragraph. The car has an ALL ALUMINUM body and has the lowest wind drag coefficient of any car on the road, and helps contribute to the 60 MPG average I receive in it. In the 2.75 years I've owned it I've only put 17k miles on it, and only 5k in the last 2 years because I'm an online grad student. I just don't drive it enough to get all the advantages it has to offer, and the batteries don't get used enough for the minimal driving I give it, therefore it's time to go. I will consider trades for an equally valued Honda Civic LX or EX 5 speed, or lesser valued with cash to make up the difference based on NADA values, BUT NOTHING ELSE. Concomitantly, I'm willing to ship to all 50 states [you pay shipping], or drive it to the 48 contiguous [you pay for its fuel based on 59 MPG and for my plane ticket home], or you may drive it home all of which is only available after all payment has cleared. I have the title in hand, and a $500 non-refundable deposit is due 24 hrs within the auctions close, and the final payment 1 week thereafter. PLEASE DON'T BID IF YOU DON'T INTEND TO BUY, THANK YOU! An extensive gallery of HQ photos with additional commentary can be seen @ http://rlebay.wordpress.com/ THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST!!! On Feb-23-11 at 19:43:53 PST, seller added the following information: I will be taking $150 off the final price of the winning bid (not the non-refundable deposit) due to an increase in the cars mileage by approximately 600 miles, from shopping for its replacement. I've bought a Honda Civic (which will allow me to transport 3 occupants for work related purposes if need be), therefore the option for trade is now off, and the best bidder will win. I'm going to miss this little car, especially the small amount of trips I had to make to the gas station.On Feb-24-11 at 21:47:09 PST, seller added the following information: Second chance offers will be immediately made available for under-bidders, if winner doesn't make the $500 deposit w/in 24hrs of auctions close.
