If you want the lowest original mile, true survivor, citrus-colored 5-speed insight available in the country, read on! I have owned many, many First Gen Honda Insights over the last 6 years or so. I am not a dealer. I am an obsessed insight fanatic (private owner.) The citrus colored insights were only made in the first model year (2000.) The number produced was very low (estimates of 300 total.) A true collector car. The car is from Florida, and has only 88k original miles on it. The body is not flawless, but it is nice, as seen in my pictures! Every body panel has the correct VIN tag on it (both front fenders, hood, both doors, both quarter panels, rear hatch, front and back bumper covers.) So no panels have ever been replaced. The car has never been in any kind of major accident, or this would be appearent with replacement panels lacking the correct vin numbers. This is further evidenced by it's clean carfax report. The usual trim items that get sun baked are not (rear wing, steering wheel, headlights, exterior moldings, emblems, decals, etc, etc.) Interior-wise, again, the car is real nice. The seats are great and not worn through (in fact they show very little wear at all,) the steering wheel, dash, headliner, door panels, trunk carpeting, etc have no stains at all, and are all perfect. I totally steam cleaned the car's interior, as I do all my insights, but it hardly needed it.) All the rubber is perfect, (around the doors, rear hatch, hood, etc. It has the correct size 165/65/14 tires (Like brand new Michelin Green X, low rolling resistance tires, with 100% tread.) I just had these mounted and spun balanced, so you'll be good to go for the next 80k miles. The car runs, drives, and shifts very well. It does not leak or burn any fluids at all, and is a super smooth rider. I also put brand new brake rotors and ceramic pads on the car, so the brakes are brand new too. You shouldn't have to touch them for another 80-100k miles. I've wired the car for my digital grid charger (again, as I do all my insights,) and cycle the pack regularly (considering the car is stored in my heated garage and not being driven.) For those not in the know, grid charging the pack peaks and equalizes the cells within the pack. This is extremely good for the battery, and prolongs it's life and health greatly. To the buyer, I will offer a brand new grid charger for half the price I normally sell them for (my cost to build, basically.) To read more about my grid chargers, see my ebay item # 301002355166. The car has all the manuals, key and remote, too. Transmission-wise, it shifts perfectly with no synchro grind or bearing noise issues whatsoever. The clutch and slave cylinder are pefect too. I also just did the full oil and filter change with the correct Mobil1 0w-20 oil, and the transmission fluid change, as well. Accessory-wise, everything works exactly as it should; heater, blower fan, power windows and switches, power locks and switches, turn signals, every bulb inside and out, all the dash including the trip meter, horn, turn signals, stock Honda am/fm/cassette stereo, (rare 4 speaker option, with great sound,) rear trunk release actuator, rear trunk lock, hatch struts, wipers, trip meter, squirters, etc, etc. This car is THE nicest citrus you'll find for sale in the country. All underbody panels are in place and nice, too. All jack equipment and spare tire are in place and nice. I have the clean and clear transferrable title, with no liens, in my name. I have done a ton of work to this car to get it exactly where it should be, and as you see it now. I do all my own work (over 30 years of automotive schooling and experience,) and do not scrimp, always using correct factory Honda parts, right down to the last correct screw. NO surprises with this car! So, if you want the best citrus for your money, look no further. Can you buy an insight cheaper? Yup. Maybe you can even find a high mile citrus. But what you save in initial costs, you'll put back into the car fixing the stuff it needs, both mechanically and cosmetically! This is where the old saying, "You get what you pay for" holds quite true! Just look at the pics....Any questions; call me directly at 716-946-6070. Thanks for your time and consideration! Respectfully, Chris in Gasport, N.Y. (14067) PS: I also have 1 other first gen 2000 silver 5-speed Insight I'll be selling as well, if this one does not suit your exact wants. It is a true, documented 49k mile car from Massechusetts. Feel free to call! I build and offer other extremely useful mods for these 2000-06 first gen Honda Insights cars, as well. Some of which include: Clutch Interrupt Circuit (see ebay item # 290990607482.) Brake Regen Circuit (see ebay item # 291048200804.) Brand New OEM Honda Insight Citrus & Grey Seat Covers (see ebay item # 300932249369.) Stainless Steel Dead Pedal / Footrest) (see ebay item # 291039568254.) Honda Insight Spun Aluminum Moon Disc Set (see ebay item # 300951306290.) And soon to come; another round of Throttle Smoothing Circuits! Thanks again! Chris

New death linked to Takata airbag crisis, Honda recalls 170k vehicles overseas
Sat, 15 Nov 2014The safety crisis surrounding Takata's exploding airbags continues to expand. In the latest revelation, Honda confirms another death linked to the faulty parts, and the company is expanding its recall of the components. However, none of the newly added vehicles are in the United States.
With the confirmation of this report, there are now five deaths linked to the faulty airbags. According to The New York Times, a pregnant woman in Malaysia was killed on July 27 in a 2003 Honda City when she crashed into another vehicle, and the inflator ruptured. This was the first announced case outside of the US.
The faulty part in the woman's car was reportedly made at a now-closed Takata factory in Georgia, according to the NYT, and it's the first known example from that location. In response, Honda recalled about 170,000 vehicles in Europe and Asia to replace the potentially bad inflators. The latest campaign brings the total number of recalled vehicles worldwide to around 14.3 million units.
Honda builds 300-millionth motorcycle, it's a Gold Wing
Wed, Nov 26 2014Honda has been selling motorcycles in Japan since 1949. And it's been selling bikes to US customers since John Travolta had a paper route. Combine all those years, huge markets and great products, and apparently the number you come up with is 300,000,000. Wowza. Starting with the iconic 98-cc Dream Type-D you see above, Honda announced that it has built its 300-millionth motorcycle this month. The company currently sells all manner of powersports goodness, of course – ATVs, side-by-sides and two-wheelers – at 32 facilities in 22 countries. Honda motorcycles took our country by storm in the 1960s, taking the title as the best-selling bike brand in the world during that decade, largely on the back of the Honda 50 or "Super Cub" bike. Honda's success in the '60s also helped to justify the establishment its first manufacturing footprint in North America, in Marysville, OH in 1979. The company mentions, in the press release you'll find below, that lucky number 300 million was a Gold Wing produced at the Kumamoto factory in Japan. We're celebrating that tidbit with a heaping helping of historic Gold Wing photography, in the gallery of Honda bikes, above. Honda Marks Unprecedented Milestone: Global Production of 300 Million Motorcycles Nov 24, 2014 - TORRANCE, Calif. Achieving a milestone more than 65 years in the making, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today announced production of its 300-millionth motorcycle. The milestone bike is a Honda Gold Wing produced at the company's Kumamoto Factory in Japan. Honda will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic Gold Wing in 2015. Honda began mass production of motorcycles in Japan in 1949 when it built the Honda 98cc Dream Type-D. Today, Honda produces motorcycles, ATV's and side-by-sides at 32 plants in 22 countries, including two plants in North America. "This incredible milestone is the result of the millions of customers who have placed their trust in Honda and we would like to thank all of our customers, associates, dealers and community partners in North America for helping make it possible," said Bob Gurga, Vice President and Manager of Motorcycle Division for American Honda. "Now, we are focused on the future and the ways that we can harness the challenging spirit of Honda associates to create new joy for Honda customers." In 1958, Honda introduced the Honda 50, known globally as the Super Cub, which would go on to revolutionize the industry. This iconic bike paved the way for Honda's expansion into the U.S.
Senna's McLaren drives Honda up the wall
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Honda is getting excited for its imminent return to Formula One with McLaren. So excited, in fact, that it got its new/old friends from Woking to loan it one of its old F1 cars. But not just any old F1 car...
On display at the Honda stand in Frankfurt this year is the 1988 McLaren MP4-4 in which the legendary Ayrton Senna drove to fifteen out of sixteen grands prix that season to take the championship in spectacular style.
Honda provided the engine for that car, a 1.5-liter turbo V6 with upwards of 600 horsepower to propel less than 1,200 lbs. Of course this being a static display car, it's likely been stripped of its engine, gearbox and most other internal mechanical components. But that doesn't make the sight of it any less memorable.
