Honda


I am selling my 2001 Honda Accord EX V6. I purchased this car new in 2001, so I am the original owner and have kept maintenance records. The car has 118,000 miles and is still running beautifully. The EX comes loaded with the following features:

• 3.0L V6
• Leather interior
• 6-disc CD changer
• Power driver's seat
• ABS
• Homelink system (built in garage door opener)
• Automatic climate control (with micron air filter)
• Steering wheel audio controls
• Allow wheels

The car has had regular oil changes every 3k-5k miles. At 75K miles I switched to synthetic blend motor oil. The AC blows cold and strong. Recent maintenance performed includes:

• New front and rear brake pads (at 115K miles)
• New rear brake rotors (at 115K miles)
• New spark Plugs (at 116K miles)
• Transmission flush (at 116K miles)
• Fuel injector cleaning (at 116K miles)

You can click on the pictures to view larger images and see how well this car has been taken care of. KBB suggests a private party value of around $6,000 in good condition. The car had a small tear on the driver’s seat which has been repaired (see picture below), and makes a rattling sound from what I suspect is a loose bracket on the 60/40 folding seats, so I have priced it a little below good. KBB's definition of good states that the car is:

• Free of any major defects.
• Clean title history, the paints, body, and interior have only minor (if any) blemishes, and there are no major mechanical problems.
• Little or no rust on this vehicle.
• Tires match and have substantial tread wear left.
• A "good" vehicle will need some reconditioning to be sold at retail.

If you're interested please contact me with questions or to arrange a time to look at the vehicle. The Accord has been a great car for us and it’s ready for its next home.

Thanks for looking.

Logitech Driving Force Pro Steering Wheel

I am selling a Logitech Driving Force Pro Steering Wheel originally designed for PS2. The wheel was originally released for the PS2 but is also compatible with the PS3. I used this wheel to play Gran Turismo 4 but haven't used it in years now and figured it was time to sell it. I was planning to wait until GT5 came out to sell this because I figured there would be more demand for a PS3 wheel then, but I don't feel like waiting until 2020 for that game to come out so I am just going to sell it now. After all they did finally release a demo of GT5, so you could try it with that!

I don't have a PS3, but I did test the wheel out on the PC (that's right it's windows compatible!) and did some racing in Need for Speed Shift, and it wheel is in excellent working condition.

I am asking $50 for the wheel, thanks for looking and I hope to hear from you!

Turbo for Sale

I am selling a Garrett GT-17 turbocharger from a 2001 Saab 9-5. This turbo will work with:

Saab 9-5's 1999-2001 on non Aero and non SE models
Saab 9-5 Linear from 2002-2005 for Linear models.
Saab 9-3's from 1999-2002 that are non SE.
I am not sure about the 03-05 9-3 Linear.

This turbo was removed from my car when I decided to upgrade to the Aero turbocharger (Mitsubishi TD-04) to get some more power. The car had about 100k miles on it at the time, and there is no play in the shaft, or oil leakage in the chamber. The turbo has the oil hoses still attached.

I am asking $150 firm, this would be a great purchase if your Saab is shooting white smoke at start up, or if you want to have a spare just in case, or maybe you have a project car you want to turbocharge. Send me an email!

Thanks!
