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. Or copy and paste the ebay numbers below in the search bar.... Thanks again! Chris

Honda China struggling with high-end Accord because Chinese covet German cars, too
Sun, 06 Jul 2014It's not particularly unusual to see cheap cars in China, or those with designs stolen from foreign competitors, but increasingly the best-selling vehicles there would be very recognizable to just about any auto enthusiast. There appears to be one fact of life whether looking at car buyers in Sacramento, Stuttgart or Shanghai: People who can afford to buy premium cars often look first at the Germans.
Honda recently thought that it could challenge this perceived wisdom by including a premium Accord in the ninth-generation sedan's Chinese launch last year. The market-exclusive version was priced against the Audi A4. The venture failed, miserably.
According to Automotive News China, sales for the new Accord in China are down 37 percent through May of this year. Honda's overall sales are actually up by about 11 percent there on the strength of smaller, less profitable models. However, the company is still off its forecast 19-percent rise.
Honda Jazz looks like a good fit for Paris
Wed, 17 Sep 2014The quirky, utilitarian little hatchback that we know as the Honda Fit in the US carries the more melodious Jazz name in Europe. And while the newest Fit is already on sale in our market, folks are still waiting for it across the pond. Honda is unveiling its new Jazz Prototype to the 2014 Paris Motor Show in October, and it's nearly identical to what is currently on sale in North America. In fact, it's hard to image Honda changing much from this "prototype" before launching it for Europeans.
The Jazz's design is exactly what you would expect after even a glance at the current North American Fit. Except for a different wing at the rear, a shark fin antenna and a new set of wheels, this Jazz plays the same tune we've heard before.
The one thing keeping the Fit and Jazz from truly being identical siblings is that the European model packs Honda's new 1.3-liter i-VTEC Earth Dreams engine under the hood, rather than the 1.5-liter used in North America. But just like our Fit, the Jazz will be available with a six-speed manual or CVT. The Japanese automaker says that the Jazz goes on sale in the summer of 2015. Scroll down to read the company's announcement for its upcoming hatch.
Honda Fit loses Recommended rating from Consumer Reports
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Thanks to its poor performance in the most recent round of Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crash testing, where it received the lowest overall score in the small-overlap test, Consumer Reports has bumped the Honda Fit from its "Recommended" list. When a car gets bumped from the magazine's coveted ranks, it's usually cause for concern. This is not one of those times.
As there is a new Fit barreling towards dealerships for an on-sale date this spring, we wouldn't pay too much credence to the current car's demotion. It's expected that the next-generation Fit should pass the test with flying colors, as CR is quick to point out that newer Hondas have traditionally done very well in the tricky small-overlap crash testing.
Of the subcompact cars tested by the IIHS, only the Kia Rio, which netted a "Marginal" score overall, is a Consumer Reports "Recommended" vehicle.
