  • WTF S2K

    WTF S2K

    Briefly, I was surprised that we’ve never featured a Honda S2000; but then I thought about it and there usually nothing odd about them.  They’re just great, pure sports cars. This one, however, first had a hideous body kit installed and then was wrecked.  A quick interwebs search showed what the body kit looked like…

  • 95 Honda Accord Wagon Convertible?  Sure!

    95 Honda Accord Wagon Convertible? Sure!

    Apparently, this 1995 Honda Accord Wagon appeared in the original The Fast and the Furious movie before someone chopped it to make a convertible.  It certainly is an oddity.  I’m just not sure what else to say about it. It seems this was once nice enough to be a ‘show car’, but it’s now basically…

  • Quaalude Convertible!

    Quaalude Convertible!

    The seller claims this first-gen Prelude convertible is one of a kind, but I remember seeing one or two of these back in the day.  As such, there must have been at least one “coachbuilder” churning these out.  Regardless, it’s cool to see any first-gen Prelude, these days, and the can opener job on the…

  • WTF Accord

    WTF Accord

    Sometimes, the answer to the question why is not at all obvious. Interestingly, this Japanese car won the Euro Category in at least one Low Rider show.  Was this the closest thing to Euro? Click for Craigslist ad Southern CA, USA $8,000 Yes, it has lambo doors.  The seller claims suicide doors, too, so I…

  • BUY THIS CAR!

    BUY THIS CAR!

    That’s the message I get from the YELLING, multi-color-text-using seller.  This is a custom, shortened ’74 Honda Civic.  Apparently, it was once red and it’s now in primer.  Why?  I’m not sure. The seller claims the car runs and drives and could be a reliable daily driver.  It even has new “BREAK” hoses.  Also, the…

  • Quickie: Honda 600 Pickup is Too Good to Go Away

    Quickie: Honda 600 Pickup is Too Good to Go Away

    Some cars are too cool not to perpetually be for sale and that’s why this is a recycled post.  This is still in Idaho, but it looks like the car did indeed change hands, as Rudy sold it in October and Kevin is selling now. If Kevin won the eBay auction from last year, he…

  • Uber Rare Gen 2 Acura Legend Sedan Manual

    Uber Rare Gen 2 Acura Legend Sedan Manual

    Yes, manual transmissions were available in Legends with four doors.  Most are the later GS trim level with the Type II engine (235HP!) and big-for-the-time wheels.  This seller has taken an earlier, non-GS sedan and essentially made a GS.  Hopefully, the parts needed replacing, because that seems like a strange project car quest. Of course,…

  • The greatest high school car of all time

    The greatest high school car of all time

    Looking for the perfect car for that new teen driver in your household?  If not already, the 1985 Honda Accord should be on your shopping list; so why not go “all-out” and pick up this spiffy Limousine conversion?  Tell your kid and 6-8 of his punk friends to turn off Facebook (or twitter, or snapchat,…

  • 1974 Civic 4WD

    1974 Civic 4WD

    The seller’s brief introductory description says a lot: “1974 Honda Civic. All Wheel Drive, VTEC, 6 speed manual transmission, cruise control, power window on passenger side, air conditioning.”  Yes, this car was put together with a 1990 Honda Wagovan and a 1974 Civic and it has a 6-speed manual trans.  Most important is that power…

  • Good, Honest CVCC

    Good, Honest CVCC

    For a long time, any 70s Honda spotted on the road was a beater, with only the occasional exception.  Will the rise in Japanese collector car values keep them coming out of the woodwork, or will this be a rare sight in the future? The seller claims 85K original miles on this one, which means…
