2003 Honda Insight With Custom Subwoofer And Recently Replaced Ima Battery on 2040-cars
North Hollywood, California, United States
|
You are bidding on a two-door 2003
Honda Insight hatchback that has approximately 73,056 miles on it (see picture
of odometer) with a recently replaced IMA battery. The car features an upgraded
sound system, including a limited edition custom-made subwoofer designed
specifically for this model of Honda Insight. Except for ordinary wear and
tear, and a few bumps and scratches, the car is in very good condition, with a
clean interior and exterior, as shown in the pictures of this listing.
I am the original owner and bought it from the Honda dealership in San Francisco in 2003. Maintenance has been performed exclusively at Honda dealerships in Hollywood and North Hollywood. Most of my driving has been back and forth from work on local roads which is why the mileage is so low. My wife and I are starting a family and I am selling the car because I need a four-door with more space room for babies, pets and stuff. This is a first generation hybrid that has obtained a lifetime average miles per gallon rating of 39.9 mpg (see picture). It is a Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle (SULEV) and includes a regenerative braking system and other features to maximize its fuel economy. Were it not for years of bumper-to-bumper commutes in Los Angeles, the fuel efficiency might be even higher. On highways and road trips, the fuel economy hits 60 miles per gallon. Included with the car are three keys, one of which is new and has yet to be programmed by the dealership, plus a valet key and two original keyless entry fobs (never used or tested). NOTE: The picture of the driver's seat is washed out due to the Southern California sun. Without the glare of the sun, the driver's seat looks the same as passenger's seat (see picture). Apologies for the bad picture.
You can reach me at 510-393-2781 with questions from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. PST. I cannot allow test drives but you may request to schedule an appointment for inspection in North Hollywood during the bidding time period (keeping in mind that I have a day job).

DETAILS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONAL PICTURES The remainder of this listing provides details about (1) the recently replaced IMA battery, (2) the upgraded sound system and (3) additional pictures. RECENTLY REPLACED HYBRID BATTERY UPGRADED SOUND SYSTEM Speakers Amplifier Stereo/CD

"Shoebox” Subwoofer (Pictured) I'm no audiophile or expert but the upgraded speakers and custom sub give a very rich sound without taking away from the cargo space of the car. ADDITIONAL PICTURES http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll161/darkelfo/Honda%20Insight/IMG_5242_zps3754b258.jpg DISCLOSURES In 2011, the car was broken into. In the process of trying to take the stereo, the thieves destroyed some components of the dash. I had those components replaced with new parts at the dealership. And it was a good excuse to replace the stolen stereo with a new and better model (see upgraded sound system section above). When the car was broken into, the front VIN plate was either stolen or not replaced by dealership when they replaced the dash components. So the car is missing the VIN plate on the front window (all other VIN stickers and engravings are on the vehicle). The California Highway Patrol has verified that the VIN number for the vehicle is correct and valid and I will provide the original signatures and documentation from CHP to the buyer together with the title. The car has a slight dent on the right side above the rear wheel cover (pictured). There are some paint chips on the door frame from getting in and out of the car. The vehicle has other ordinary wear and tear which I have tried to show in the pictures. The AC works very well but it has an odd glitch where the fan will on occasional stop blowing. The AC continues to cool but the fan does not blow. The Honda dealership was unable to determine the cause. In any event -- and this is NOT a joke -- if I bang on the dashboard above the AC control panel, the fan usually starts blowing again. If that doesn't work, hitting a pothole or any real bump in the road fixes the issue. I gave up trying to get the dealership to figure it out because I have a practical work around. It has worked every time. |

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
2025 Honda Civic Hybrid confirmed along with new small Acura crossover
Thu, Jan 18 2024Honda made several announcements Thursday regarding both its core band and its premium subsidiary, Acura, giving us a taste of what to expect from both brands in 2024. The biggest news is that Acura will add a new small crossover to the lineup, slotted alongside the Integra sedan. We can also expect updates to the Honda Civic — most notably among them the introduction of a 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid model for the new sedan and hatchback — and less significant updates here and there throughout both lineups. We know little about this new baby Acura crossover apart from what it isn't, and that's a direct import of the CDX sold overseas. Scratch that notion from your mind entirely. Honda wouldn't comment further, but we suspect the small CUV's fundamental architecture will be shared with the Honda HR-V, though we wouldn't be surprised to see it benefit from a powertrain upgrade. This is not to be confused with the Acura ZDX, which is the all-electric crossover due to arrive just about any day now . The ZDX is larger and shares its underpinnings not with anything of Honda's, but rather GM's Ultium platform. Elsewhere at Acura, we can expect a thorough interior and exterior update of the MDX and "upgrades" to the RDX. Over at Honda, the long-expected Civic Hybrid is now officially go. It will launch this year as both a sedan and hatchback alongside a broader update that will include new styling elements (teased above) and interior upgrades; expect more closer to launch. Honda said the Odyssey will receive updates for the model year too, but did not elaborate on what to expect from the effort. We expect more on that later in 2024. Related video:
