First the bad. The car hasn't been driven any distance in about a year and a half. I did start it with a jump from another vehicle, the 12v batter was dead and froze over winter, it didn't crack but won't hold a charge. I got a new job and a company vehicle with it so I stopped driving it. It has a broken windshield. The front fascia has come off. I hit a racoon about 4 years ago and continued to drive it. the interior has seen some miles as well. The rear hatch wont open. The servo wines but nothing happens, a common problem I understand. The key will open it. There is a orange check engine light on on the dash. We all know red is bad but since this one is orange its just something that should be checked eventually, I remember having it checked a few years ago and it was a bad O2 sensor. Their are a few dents and dings. The tires are just"ok". Now the good. When i started it, it fired off immediately I drove it for a few miles. It charged and discharged as it should, giving me plenty of boost when I asked for it. It stopped the engine when I came to a stop and restarted when I put it in gear. I had the IMA battery replaced at about 200000 miles by the local Honda dealer. I had a aftermarket cruise control installed when the car was new. The AC is cold and works well. I'm sure the fascia can be re-atached by someone who is a little creative. All thing being considered its a sturdy little car that could be fixed and probably driven for another 100000 miles or used for parts.
