Thank you for looking at my listing. I am selling my 2004 Honda Accord LX. It has 210,214 highway miles. I am the first owner of this vehicle. This is a very well-maintained vehicle. All major service has been completed by the Honda dealership. The last tune-up was at 195,000 miles and it was the "big" one. This is a smoke-free vehicle. It does not have an ashtray. The last time I checked the miles per gallon, I was getting between 25 and 27 mpg with a mixture of highway and secondary roads (75% highway). Kelly Blue Book and Edmunds.com have the private sale value between $5,200 and $8,200. On a quick search of Autotrader.com, I found dealerships selling similar Accords for around $8,000 or so. Currently, there are a few high-mileage Accords on eBay for $6,000-$8,000. Some are even EX models or 4-cylinder models. My reserve price is very reasonable and lower than the private sale value. Features of this vehicle: • 240 HP 3.0 Liter V-6 (plenty of power) • Automatic Transmission / FWD • Traction Control • Anti-Lock Brakes • Driver Side, Passenger Side, Front Side (A-Pillar) and Side (Seat) Airbags • Heated Leather Seats (driver side with lumbar support adjustment) • Power Moon Roof • Dual Climate Control (with ice cold air-conditioning) • XM Radio • 6-Disc CD Changer • Homelink • Power Mirrors / Power Windows / Power Seats (6-Way Driver / 4-Way Passenger) • Sliding Armrest • Pass-Through to Trunk • Protective Floor Cover in Trunk (factory) • Splash Guards (factory) • Wheel Locks • Newer Yokohama Tires The leather is in great shape. The rear seat has seen very little use. The interior and exterior are clean with normal wear and tear for 200,000+ miles. There is some dirt on the tan sun visor from use. For the exterior, the paint is still glossy and has great color. The hood has stone chips and one small area of rust forming. One wheel has scratches from a curb. The front bumper has some scratches from a curb here and there. All four doors have small parking lot dings. There are scratches around the driver side door handle from use. There are other fine scratches in the paint that are not visible until close inspection (may even be able to be rubbed out). I have tried to capture the major wear and tear in the pictures.I have three keys: two key fobs and one valet key. Also, I have the original owner's manual. All four original floor mats are present, along with the trunk floor protector. The spare tire is also present. The windshield is nice and clear, it was just replaced due to a stone chip.Sorry for the poor lighting in the photos; I only have time to take photos in the evening. I have included additional photos on my blog. I think these photos have better resolution than eBay's. I will try to take photos with better lighting this weekend. LINK TO MORE AND BETTER PHOTOS Vehicle Operation This vehicle runs great; it is my daily driver currently (I will stop driving it now to preserve the mileage accuracy). It idles a little rougher than when new, naturally. No issues were found at the 195,000-mile tune-up at the Honda dealership. The AC still blows cold air. I did most of the oil changes myself. At 150,000 miles, I started using Restore(TM) engine treatment as a preventive measure. The tires are pretty new, with less than 10,000 miles on them. The next routine maintenance item would probably be the brake pads. eBay Experience I have a 100% feedback rating. I sold my previous vehicle on eBay also; here is the feedback from that transaction: The car is great! I love it! Great communication!

On Jul-29-11 at 05:48:42 PDT, seller added the following information: Carfax I have purchased a Carfax report and it is on my blog (link is above). There is an error in the Carfax and the eBay AutoCheck. There are no issues with the Odometer reading or title. The N.H. DMV must of entered something work when I moved from M.I. to N.H. in 2005. 210,214 is the actual mileage. I have paid off the car in full. I do have the title and it is clean. The AutoCheck score is miss-leading and too low, which is too bad. I use it was more accurate. On Jul-31-11 at 17:14:14 PDT, seller added the following information: 31-July-2011:  I have updated my  blog with a couple more photos. Shows the driver side seat better and some of the scratches on the front bumper better.On Aug-03-11 at 15:02:38 PDT, seller added the following information: 03-August-2011: This is actually an EX-L V6 model, not an LX. eBay does not allow the description update. Sorry for the confusion.On Aug-07-11 at 06:07:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Someone has asked if this Accord EX-L has had any mechanical issues. I can say this has been the best car I have ever owned. Not one single mechanical issue, not one. It has only been in the shop for routine maintenance. Also, due to numerous requests, the reserve price is $4,300. Happy bidding! On Aug-07-11 at 06:12:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Accord value per Edmunds and Kelly Blue Book.
