We're the second owners of this excellent 2000 Honda Insight hybrid with under 28,000 miles! We've owned this for a little over a year. We bought it with just 16,000 miles on odometer from the original owner to use as a commuter car but are no longer commuting now due to a job change.
We have the original sticker price and maintenance/service records from the original dealership where it was bought. The IMA battery was changed in March of 2012 by the original owner and all recall services were also made by the dealer. Everything works the way it should and we've had no issues or problems. Both owners being non-smoking adult drivers, the interior is without damage. No accidents, no dents or dings anywhere with only very tiny paint flakes from rocks and a couple small top-coat scratches from careless people when parked in public lots.
This has been well maintained and serviced by a Honda dealership since new. It has been garage kept and never driven in snow by both owners. We did drive it during winter on clear roads to maintain the IMA battery.
Truly a nice commuter car that averages 60-65 mpg. With a strong tail wind we got over 90 mpg a few times! The price of gas makes this the ideal commuter car with many more years of driving life ahead.
With such low mileage on this first year Honda hybrid, a smart collector could look to the future desirability of owning the top EPA rated fuel efficient production vehicle of all time. Or just drive by the gas pumps as you frugally commute back and forth for many years to come.

Honda and Mario Andretti cite pedestrians for excessive slowness
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Honda and the Andretti family have a lot to celebrate at the moment. Andretti Autosport driver Ryan Hunter-Reay won the 2014 Indianapolis 500 in his Honda-powered car, and Marco Andretti, Mario's grandson, also managed to take the third step on the podium. Apparently, the victory is making them feel magnanimous because Honda and Mario Andretti are giving the chance to ride with him in a two-seat, open wheel car.
To promote the contest, they created the Honda Speed Patrol to ticket anyone going too slow. It's an interesting idea, and the chance to ride with Andretti would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Perhaps the biggest shock of the video, though, might be when you realize how short Mario is when you see him milling about in public. Scroll down to watch one of America's most respected racers cite people in Chicago for being too slow.
Honda recalling 25k Odyssey minivans over side curtain airbags
Fri, 02 May 2014Honda's refreshed 2014 Odyssey (now with 100-percent more vacuum power!) launched last year, but is now being called back for issues related to the side curtain airbags. According to Honda, 24,889 Odyssey minivans are affected by an issue that may cause the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning light to illuminate or, even worse, cause the side airbags to not deploy in a crash.
What went wrong, exactly? We'll let Honda explain:
During assembly of the electrical coupler for the side curtain airbag on the passenger's side of the vehicle, it is possible that the shorting terminal, which is used to prevent deployment of the airbag before it is assembled into the vehicle, may have been damaged. A damaged shorting terminal may illuminate the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) indicator as well as prevent the side curtain airbag from deploying during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Acura already planning NSX Type R?
Wed, Jan 14 2015Acura just took the wraps off the production version of its long-awaited new NSX, but rumors are already circulating of an even hotter version to follow. Meeting up at the Detroit Auto Show this week, Auto Express asked the NSX's chief engineer Ted Klaus about the prospect of a Type R version in the future, to which he reportedly answered: "I think everyone who loves cars wants to see a version that we say is pure red. The NSX has always been silver first, moving towards red later. Someone asked me, 'when will you be satisfied?' Probably never. What you do today, you can improve on tomorrow." That doesn't mean that tomorrow will actually come tomorrow, but it does speak to a spirit of improvement on the NSX team that could stand to keep the American-made Japanese supercar on the knife's edge and out in front of the competition, which Klaus identified as including the Ferrari 458, Audi R8 V10 and Porsche 911 Turbo. The previous model bred the NSX-R two years after its release (in the Japanese domestic market anyway), benefiting from a 265-pound weight reduction, a stiffer suspension, and though never officially confirmed, a long-suspected bump in output.
