I purchased this car in July of 2011 from a dealer in Missouri.  After purchasing the car I had my local Honda Dealer go through all of the items that would need to be repaired now or in the near future to ensure that the car would be reliable.  I have all of the receipts from the work I have had done to the car.  All of the parts are Honda Original Equipment and have been installed by the dealer.  The IMA Battery was replaced on 3/14/11 when the car had 70,989 miles on it.  The only reason I am selling the car is because we need something with four doors.  With gas prices approaching $4.00 for Regular Unleaded the car will quickly save you a significant amount of money in fuel.  My best trip was from Austin, TX to Dallas, TX with 72.1 MPG, with around town driving I typically get about 56 MPG.  These are real world numbers.  There are several modifications that can be made to these cars that allow you to get significantly better numbers.  The car has the original OEM Honda Cassette deck but includes upgraded POLK speakers (I also have the original speakers which will be included, and the new speakers were a directly fit with no modifications required to the car) there is also a Blitzsafe Honda adapter which allows you to connect a portable MP3 player or your phone to the radio.  This car also has the leather wrapped steering wheel from an Acura installed.  This car also includes a grid charger which I have only used four times, anytime I am out of town for more than a week I would put the grid charger on a timer.  Title in hand, this car is ready to go!

Pros

Acura RSX Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel Installed

Two recently installed Bridgestone RE92 tires (all tires are Bridgestone RE92) this is the only tire you want on this car

Extra OEM Wheel I have a total of five (5) full size OEM wheels plus the spare, all full size wheels are outfitted with Bridgestone RE92 tires. All 5 are included in the auction.

Upgraded Polk Speakers (perfect OEM fit - no modifications made to the car to install them), Original Speakers also included.

Blitzsafe Honda Adapter for attaching an mp3 player or cell phone

Always serviced by Honda Dealer with Genuine Honda Parts

Rare 5-speed Transmisison

LOW Miles

Hybrid Battery replaced less than 9,000 miles ago

Grid Charger installed

I have removed and cleaned out the EGR Plate (a common problem on the Insight), last year I installed new Honda OEM Spark Plugs (correctly matched for each cylinder), new Cabin and engine Air Filters.

Documented Service History, Clean CarFax

This car has the rear-wiper delete, the original wiper and motor will be included.

All new under-engine cover (Most cars are missing the under engine/under body cover panels, when I bought this car they were missing.  I replaced all of them, it had a noticeable difference on fuel economy)

Cons

There are some scratches on the drivers side wheel cover, I bought another wheel cover but it too would need to be repainted. I will include the additional wheel cover. Because I had planned on either replacing or repainting the wheel cover I also bought the black trim stickers for both sides from Honda, which I will include.

Heat shield on Catalytic Coverter rusted (Strange because the rest of the undercarriage looks great, the heat shield however was made out of steel and has rusted.  It has no impact on the operation of the car and to be clear its just the heat shield that is rusted, not the catalytic converter).

This is a two-seat car

Blemish in passenger seat cover (I bought another perfect seat cover that I am including if the blemish bothers you you can replace the seat cover I also have the pins that are required)

Hole under drivers side carpet.  (Honda no longer sells the drivers side floor mat, so most of these cars end up with a hole in the drivers side floor.  I have another used carpet that I am including if you decide to replace the existing carpet, Honda also no longer sells the carpet for this car.)

I also have one new Honda OEM Oil Filter, and 2.6 Quarts of Mobil 1 Synthetic Oil for your next oil change that I will include. This car only uses 2.6 Quarts of Oil.

Recently Completed Service History

On July 25, 2011 I had First Texas Honda do an Oil Change, Transmission Oil Change, and Coolant Service when they did the Texas State Inspection.  At this time I also asked the dealer if they could inspect the battery and they told me that it was replaced on 3/14/11.  Here is the receipt http://nptrental.com/Insight/2011-07-25_First_Texas_Honda.PDF

On July 26, 2011 I purchased a new passenger floor mat, misc bolts/screws/nuts, and a new EGR. Here is the receipt http://nptrental.com/Insight/2011-07-25_First_Texas_Honda.PDF

On August 22, 2011 Due to a Service Bulletin Honda Installed a New PCM 37820-PCM-HON this was done under warranty http://nptrental.com/Insight/2011-08-22_First_Texas_Honda.PDF

On October 9, 2011 I ordered a PCV valve, and Air Conditioner/Alternator belt.  Here is the receipt http://nptrental.com/Insight/2011-10-09_Majestic_Honda_Parts.PDF

On Novermber 12, 2011 I purchased two Bridgestone Original Equipment RE92 tires and had them mounted and balanced by the Honda Dealer, I also had the car aligned at the time.  Here is the receipt http://nptrental.com/Insight/2011-11-12_First_Texas_Honda.PDF

On May 25, 2012 Replaced the motor mount, fixed A/C leak, recharged A/C, fixed rattling heat shield.  http://nptrental.com/Insight/2012-05-25_First_Texas_Honda.PDF

Turbo Honda S2000 could battle Miata and 124 Abarth

Mon, Dec 7 2015

Rumors are again swirling that Honda could have a new sports car under development to slot below the forthcoming NSX. Autocar claims the model would revive the S2000 name, but offer 1.5- and 2.0-liter turbocharged units at the front to drive the rear wheels. Autocar alleges this info comes from unnamed "company insiders," and asserts the new S2000 could have a base model with a 1.5-liter turbo that makes about 180 hp – almost 60 hp down from the original convertible. However, a hotter version – possibly with Type R badging – would reportedly have a detuned form of the 306-hp 2.0-liter in the Civic Type R. Both trims would have a six-speed manual. Competing rumors contend that Honda could be developing two different performance models. Patent images suggest the company might have a smaller version of the NSX under consideration in addition to the rumored S200 revival. The mid-engine coupe would allegedly use a hybrid powertrain based on the Civic Type R's engine to make a total of about 400 hp. However, Autocar claims the S2000 successor has the higher priority of the pair, but it doesn't mention where the info comes from. The Honda S660 kei car on sale in Japan shows that the brand is willing to dabble in new sports cars, but that convertible isn't practical for the US market, according to the automaker's bosses. Dealers meanwhile continue to beg a performance model in the lineup, so it's possible one of these rumored projects eventually could arrive in showrooms. Related Video:

Japan considering offering free hydrogen cars because $30k incentives apparently not enough

Wed, Aug 6 2014

There's no such thing as a free lunch. A free hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle, though? It may become a possibility in Japan, says Automotive News. We know the Japanese government is being plenty supportive of hydrogen vehicles since it will provide about $20,000 worth of incentives to prospective customers of the $69,000 vehicle. And with local governments like Toyota City's Aichi prefecture supplying another $10,000, out of pocket costs could reach less than $40,000 for the Toyota hydrogen car. We don't know for sure that the 'free' H2 car will happen, but with Toyota starting sales of its first production FCV next spring (potentially named Mirai), it could happen. That would also spell good news for Honda, which will follow up Toyota's effort for its own hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle. The case for the free car is still pretty tenuous. Automotive News, citing the Nihon Keizai business publication, reports that the Japanese government has thrown around the idea of subsidizing the vehicles outright to early adopters just to gain some momentum for this kind of zero-emissions vehicles. Heck, the government would even throw in free fuel for good measure. We'll see about that. To see some of the official hydrogen excitement, click here for a video of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe taking a Toyota fuel cell vehicle for a brisk test drive.
