You are looking at a very clean 2002 Honda Insight (First Generation) that has approximately 125,000 miles (see odometer picture). The body panels are very straight with some rock/debris chips and some paint touch up which is visible to the eye upon close inspection. There is no other noticeable flaws (or known damage). The previous owner replaced the battery pack in 2009 when the car had 98,390 miles. The previous owner also replaced the windshield after a tree branch fell and broke the original windshield a few years ago. We have maintained the car to recommended specifications through a local independent Honda service center. It's a fun car to drive and it's very unique. Freeway performance is very good; gas mileage is outstanding and ranges from approximately 45 around town to 60 plus on the freeways (your results can vary depending on driving style). It is being sold as-is, where-is - the car is located in Southern California and buyer will assume all responsibility for pick-up and shipping. We will assist you in your efforts to have it shipped anywhere in the Continental US. Payment criteria is a $500.00 deposit upon winning the auction (within 2 days) via PayPal with the balance to be paid by certified bank check or wire within 5 days following the deposit.

NOTE added January 27, 2014 - The "Maintenance Required" dash light is constantly lit. The light has been on since purchasing the car in 2011 and the previous owner reported that he had the same problem. This light indicates when it is time for routine maintenance and my mechanic told me that it was not necessary to track down the fault that triggers the light - we have maintained the car according to Honda standards (have all of the records). There are no other dash warning lights illuminated.

Honda CR-V spot delights with 'impossible' illusions

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Mind-blowing car commercials that employ optical illusions and jaw-clenching stunts instead of computer animation are becoming the norm these days, and everybody from Volvo Trucks to Forza Motorsport 5/McLaren are regular contributors to the growing trend. Honda joins the crowd in its latest European commercial for the CR-V 1.6 i-DTEC Diesel, and uses well-placed props and well-drawn imagery to trick viewers into seeing the "impossible."
The old-fashioned optical illusion is alive and well in Honda's "An Impossible, Made Possible" spot, so go ahead and watch it and the making-of video below.

Honda ending CR-Z, Insight sales in Europe

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Death by diesel? That may be the epitaph of the Honda Insight and CR-Z in Europe, where the Japanese automaker will discontinue sales of the two hybrid models before to the 2015 model-year. A Honda spokesman confirmed the discontinuation to Automotive News, and information on those models has been taken off of Honda's official websites in Germany, Spain and Italy. The European embrace of all things diesel and fuel efficient as well as competition from Toyota are the primary culprits. The cancellation is not a surprise. Insight sales in Europe fell a whopping 62 percent last year while CR-Z sales there plunged 66 percent. Combined, both models sold less than 2,000 units in Europe last year, Automotive News says, citing JATO Dynamics. Honda is having trouble moving the Jazz Hybrid (also known as the Fit) in Europe as well. European sales declined about 40 percent last year to around 4,500 units. Those numbers compare rather unfavorably to a 43 percent surge in Toyota's hybrid sales in Europe to about 153,000 units. The Insight may face the same fate in the US. Last year, US Insight sales fell 18 percent to 4,802 units, a small, small challenge to the more than 234,000 Toyota Prius variants sold in the US in 2013. Honda has not made an official statement on the Insight's fate here, but the sales are speaking for themselves.

Honda's first production jet takes off from North Carolina

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Plenty of automakers have backgrounds in aircraft manufacturing. BMW, Bristol, Mitsubishi, Saab and Spyker all started out in the airplane business. But Honda is going the opposite direction, expanding its automotive (not to mention motorcycle, ATV, marine engine and power equipment) business with the launch of the HondaJet. And that project has just taken a big step forward.
After starting production a year and a half ago, the Japanese industrial giant recently completed its first customer HondaJet, and has now taken that initial production aircraft to the skies for its landmark first flight. The aircraft left the production facility in Greensboro and took off on Friday morning from Piedmont Triad International Airport in North Carolina - the same state where the Wright Brothers undertook their first flight over a century ago.
The HondaJet undertook an 84-minute test flight, climbing to 15,500 feet and reaching a speed of 348 knots. That works out to 400 miles per hour - assuredly faster than any Honda (save for maybe a prototype for the same aircraft) has traveled before. The aircraft is designed to cruise at a maximum of 420 knots (483 mph) and reach a maximum altitude of 43,000 feet.
