2001 Honda Hybrid Insight.

I am the third owner.  I purchased from a local teacher and she purchased from a local teacher who purchased it from the Honda dealership new.

I absolutely love this car!  I am selling it because it needs to be driven and I am not driving it enough. 

The IMA battery (the electric battery) was replaced on 7/19/12 for the second time.  

The new battery is waranteed by the Honda dealership for three years from the time of installation.

All servicing while I have owned the vehicle has been done by the Honda Tony dealership in Waipahu.

The first time the battery was replaced they said I wasn't driving the car enough.  I have only driven this car 5,510 miles in 16 months.  It needs to be driven much more than I do to keep the IMA battery in shape.

This also happened the second time it was replaced.  So, I am selling it because this car needs to be owned by someone who will drive it.  PERFECT commuter car.  It gets up to 70mpg!

Aluminum body won't rust in the tropical humidity!

These cars were produced to be driven on the freeways as commuter cars.

The gas mileage is phenomenal on this vehicle.  You will be very happy.

This vehicle has been in one minor collision.  I was on my way to hula practice and some little old lady bumped into the back.  The insurance fixed to new status.

There is a scrape and please view the photos on the front driver's side quarter panel.  This was done when it was parked while I was surfing here on the North Shore.  Only cosmetic as the most important aspects are the IMA battery which is basically new and also the impeccable servicing which was all done at the dealership.

Extras include WET OKOLE custom car neoprene seat covers (see photos) and also custom window tinting on all windows except of course the front windshield.

Driver's side window has some minor issues when trying to raise it.  It raises but slowly sometimes.

Car is VERY clean inside and out.  I take very good care of my cars.  I am NOT a smoker and never allowed any smokers in the car.  I also know this to be true with the first two owners as well.

I do own a yellow lab and he rode with me infrequently in the car.  I do keep it vacuumed and clean carpets frequently.

Please contact me with any other questions you might have.  I am NOT a dealer, so I am representing this vehicle as honestly and fairly as possible.

She is a great little car and gets the WOW factor when you drive her around the island.  She looks like a little space capsule !  If you want attention while driving it, you will get it with this car.

I get stares while driving all the time.  I just wave and honk!

Aloha and thank you for looking at this listing.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:

Honda CR-V caught wearing facelift in Europe

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

A few years on from its 2011 debut, the current Honda CR-V is preparing to go under the knife for a refresh. Typical of these sort of mid-cycle deals, the changes for Honda's popular CUV are minor.
The front of the car is home to the most dramatic (a relative term here) changes, with revised headlights sporting what looks like a slimmer profile. The three-bar grille has been heavily tweaked and is now a two-bar item, with a larger lower bar and a nose badge that covers both upper and lower sections.
The fascia itself has been modified with what looks like a larger lower intake, while the foglights have gone from the circular pattern of the current car to a rectangular pattern on the facelifted model. It looks like they'll still sport conventional bulbs, although the shape of the lights themselves look like a natural fit for a set of LED running lights (as is the trend).
