    One word: Trademark

    Honda will be all over you.

    It would be considerable.

    It's such a common car. Were probably talking $xx, xxx to $xxx, xxx.

    There are also trademark concerns with this name. If you end up spending the money to buy it, Honda could turn around and order you to give the name to them because it violates trademarks.

    skinny's right, if you don't already own it, don't buy it... It will most likely just wind up being a headache...

    You shouldn't be asking for appraisals of domains you don't own

    Just to reiterate what has already been said, don't buy a TM and expect to keep it. The name in question is a good one for sure, but it should and probably will be owned by Honda at sometime in the future, whenever they decide to file a lawsuit. You would be better off spending money on a name without the TM issues.
