Market Highlights
- The Mechanic's Special: In 2026, older Hondas remain highly sought after for their simplicity and parts availability. However, a non-running vehicle with over 200,000 miles is strictly a project car, as the cost of a replacement engine could easily exceed the vehicle's total market value.
- The Central Valley Market: Fresno's market for budget commuters is competitive, but buyers are wary of unknown mechanical issues. A car that 'does not start' without a specific diagnosis typically sells at a steep discount compared to running examples, regardless of the brand reputation.
- Catalytic Converter Value: The high theft rate of Honda catalytic converters in California makes the 'new' converter a notable feature. However, unless the seller can provide receipts showing it is a CARB-compliant unit, the added value is minimal in the eyes of a professional buyer.
