   If you want one of the lowest original mile, first gen 5-speed insights in the country, read on!  I have owned many First Gen Honda Insights over the last 6 years or so.  This is the lowest original mile insight I've been able to find!  It is from Ohio it's whole life, and I keep it in my garage.  And it shows!  The body is very nice, and the paint shines!  The usual items that get sun baked are not (rear wing, a-pillar trims, steering wheel, side mirrors, headlights, exterior moldings, door handles, emblems, roof pinch weld moldings, etc, etc.)  The usual items that get corroded due to salt exposure are not (brake lines, brackets, nuts, bolts, trim pieces, suspension pieces, underhood items, etc.)  Interior-wise, again, the car is very nice.  Neither the seats nor the rug are worn through (both normal for these cars,) the steering wheel, dash, headliner, door panels, trunk carpeting, etc have no rips or heavy wear.  All the rubber is intact, with no rips (around the doors, rear hatch, hood, etc.)  It has the correct Bridgestone RE92 tires with a very good amount of tread remaining (they look newer and ride great!)   Mechanically, everything works on the car.  It performs flawlessly, gets into and holds lean burn perfectly, does not leak or burn any fluids at all, and is a super smooth rider.  IMA-wise, the battery charges and discharges exactly as it should.  It assists and regens exactly as it should.  I've wired the car for my digital grid charger (again, as I do all my insights,) and cycle the pack regularly (considering the car is stored in my garage and not being driven.)  For those not in the know, grid charging the pack peaks and equalizes the cells within the pack.  This is extremely good for the battery, and prolongs it's life and health.  The car has the owners manual, both keys and a remote, too.  Transmission-wise, it shifts perfectly with no synchro grind or issues whatsoever.  The clutch and slave cylinder are perfect too.  Accessory-wise, again, everything works exactly as it should; heater, ice cold air conditioning, blower fan, power windows and switches, power locks and switches, turn signals, every bulb inside and out, all the dash including the trip meter, horn, turn signals, stock Honda am/fm/cassette stereo, speakers, rear trunk release actuator, rear trunk lock, hatch struts, etc, etc.  This car is as nice as they come.  All jack equipment and spare tire are in place and in good shape, too.  It drives extremely tight with no rattles or squeaks, (as should be expected from such a low mile vehicle.)  I have the clean and clear transferable title, with no liens, in my name.  So, if you want the best car for your money, look no further.  Can you buy an insight cheaper?  Yup.  But what you save in initial costs, you'll put back into the car fixing the stuff it needs.  And you still won't have nearly as nice a car!  These first gen 5-speeds are extremely fun to drive, and even more fun when you realise you only go thru about 10 gallons of gas, every 700+ miles or so!  This is where the old saying, "You get what you pay for" holds quite true!  I encourage you to come look at and drive the car yourslf, or have a 3rd party come check it out on your behalf!  Any questions; call me directly at 716-946-6070.

Thanks for your time and consideration!

Respectfully,

Chris in Gasport, N.Y. (14067)

PS:  I also have an all original Citrus-colored 2000 5-speed from Florida with only 88k miles, that I'll be listing within the next few weeks; feel free to inquire. 

Also, on any of my insights, I can add any of the desirable modifications (grid charger, clutch interrupt circuit, brake regen circuit, throttle smoothing circuit) all of which I build, sell and regularly install myself on my daily drivers and other's insights, at cost. If you do purchase an insight from me, I always offer the buyer one of my grid chargers at a discounted price.  If you want to read up any of these mods, near the top right of your ebay home page, hit the "see other items" button.  You can read up on these extremely versatile and widely used mods among the insight owners community.

Honda CR-V named Motor Trend SUV of the Year for 2015

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

Motor Trend has announced the results of its 2015 SUV of the Year competition, and from a field that included the new Porsche Macan, Cadillac Escalade, Subaru Outback, Chevrolet Suburban and BMW X5, the buff book has awarded the gold calipers to the 2015 Honda CR-V. If that result surprises you just a little, well, get to the back of the line.
MT looked at six different categories ranging from overall design to efficiency - both fuel economy and carbon footprint - to safety and value to pick its winner, singling out the refreshed Honda while paying particular praise to its new 2.4-liter Earth Dreams four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission. A tighter steering ratio was also cited as a big source of improvement.
"There was a lot of contentious debate," MT Technical Director Frank Markus told Autoblog, indicating that nearly half the judges approached the final round of voting with an eye towards the redesigned Jeep Cherokee. "This year's field included some pretty fancy and fast iron, but the thoughtful changes made by Honda to hone its best-seller entry in that crowded compact cross-over segment really did the trick."

1964 Honda SM600 roadster gets elemental in Jay Leno's Garage

Mon, Dec 22 2014

Honda has made a handful of sports cars in the past, with examples like the Acura NSX and Honda S2000 standing as noteworthy examples. But before either of them came along, there was the Honda S600. And Jay Leno has a beautiful example from 1964 in his garage for this latest video installment. The inspiration for the new JDM S660, the original S600 came out in 1964 – which just happened to be the same year that Honda broke into Formula One. And you can hear that relationship when the dual-chain-drive 600cc inline-four revs up to its 9,500-rpm redline. It may not have had the power of contemporary British roadsters from MG and Triumph, but it had plenty of character. When Leno got a hold of this one – a top spec SM model – he and his team took it apart nut and bolt, powder-coated the chassis, resprayed the body and put it all back together better than new. But you'll want to hear Jay tell the story himself in this fifteen-minute video clip. News Source: Jay Leno's Garage via YouTube Celebrities Honda Convertible Classics Videos Jay Lenos Garage

Honda recalling 204k CR-V, Odyssey, Acura RDX models over rollaway risk

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Honda has announced a recall over a possible rollaway risk that affects 204,169 crossover and minivan models. The specific vehicles in question are the 2012-13 Honda CR-V and Odyssey, as well as the 2013 Acura RDX.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "the brake-shift interlock blocking mechanism may become slow and allow the gear selector to be moved from the Park position without pressing the brake pedal." In other words, these vehicles could unintentionally roll away.
NHTSA states that this scenario may only happen during sub-freezing temperatures, but notes that this means the vehicles fail to conform with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114: Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention. Honda will notify owners of the problem, and dealerships will install an updated interlocking mechanism free of charge.
