Here it is! Our 2000 Honda Insight Hybrid car! We purchased this from the original owner, an older woman from Oklahoma about 2 years ago. Prior to our purchase, she had the transmission rebuilt, which as all you Insight fanatics know, is a bonus that has eliminated the grind when downshifting from third to second and from second to first. It also had a new battery put in in the last 3-5 years. The upholstery has also been redone. The former owner, as well as current owners…me) was very particular about this car, its upkeep and repair. It really shows! There are NO ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS on in the dash. Auto stop works correctly. Radio works. A/C IS ICE COLD!!!  The battery charges and discharges well. Has a good boost. It is a 5 speed which gives better mileage (in my opinion) than the automatic. The lifetime is 54.9. My wife drove this for the last two years and gets mid 40's. She also loves the A/C, and driving quickly shall we say? On my way home from Oklahoma when I bought this, I was getting 72 mpg!!!  This is our third Insight and I took great pride in trying to squeeze out every mile I could. These cars are very mpg sensitive, as you know, depending on use of a/c, wind, temperature, speed, additional passengers and extra weight in the hatchback area.

Here are some things you will want to know. Car will need new tires. Evenly worn, but down to the wear bars. Will need a new windshield. Has a crack in it which I showed in the pics. Only has one hatch lift and it is not quite enough to keep the hatch up. Needs another hatch lift. HEADLIGHTS ARE CLEAR because after the last buffing, the former owner put clear packing tape and they are still clear now. 

These are desirable little cars and this one can be purchased at your price! This is a no reserve auction starting at one penny! Lasts only five days. If you have any questions, email me with your number and I can call you and we'l talk. I've been on ebay for 14 years and have sold several vehicles as well as other items with a 100% feedback.  Thanks for looking out my listing and good luck in the auction.

2015 Acura NSX burns to the ground at the 'Ring [w/video]

Thu, Jul 24 2014

Assuming all goes to plan, automakers test their vehicles to the breaking point in the months and years leading up to that vehicle's actual release into the public. Which is good, because it's much better for a car to break in glorious fashion in the hands of the company that produces it than in the driveway of an owner who just spent their hard-earned cash to get it. Such was the case with this production-guise Acura NSX prototype that we saw running around the Nurburgring just the other day. We can't be 100-percent certain, but the burned-out carcass is wearing the same number plate as the car that was spotted earlier, so it's likely the very same NSX. We have no idea what was the cause of the blaze that turned this Acura into the car-b-q you see pictured above, but our spy shooters on the ground in Germany say it was not involved in any collision, having caught on fire all on its own with engineers behind the wheel. The good news is that nobody was hurt, though the car is quite clearly a complete loss. We're sure there's another ready to to test in the burned car's place... just as soon as the engineers at Honda figure out exactly what went wrong. Have a look at the smoldering aftermath up above, and feel free to scroll down below to see a video of the car in much better circumstances.

GoPro learned to hoop from Meadowlark Lemon

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Wait, wait, wait. We promise that there's something to do with cars in this story. Really, there is. It also, though, features some basketball antics. And the entire thing is possible thanks to the magic that is the GoPro.
Strategically situated, the little cameras capture David Kalb, a master when it comes to making trick basketball shots. This time, he's showing just what he can do when launching balls through the sunroof of a Honda Civic. That includes dribbling and sinking a layup (although we think he may have traveled when driving to the net).
Take a look below for the video, and let us know what you think of Kalb's tricks down in Comments.

Honda Expands Takata Airbag Recall To 5.4M Units In The US

Tue, Dec 9 2014

While Honda already announced plans to take its front driver's side Takata airbag inflator recall nationwide, the automaker has now officially reported on the number of affected vehicles and the specific models in need of repair. The expanded campaign covers an estimated 5.4 million units across the US, including those already being fixed under the previous regional actions. That number is an expansion of the five million units initially reported by NHTSA. The affected models under the nationwide recall are the 2001-2007 Accord with a four-cylinder engine, 2001-2002 Accord V6, 2001-2005 Civic, 2002-2006 CR-V, 2003-2011 Element, 2002-2004 Odyssey, 2003-2007 Pilot, 2006 Ridegline, 2003-2006 Acura MDX, 2002-2003 TL and 2002 CL. For customers who expressed concern about their vehicle's safety, Honda had already been replacing the inflators nationwide. It's possible for the inflators in these vehicles to rupture when inflating the airbag, spraying metal fragments at occupants. This problem has been blamed for at least five deaths worldwide and at least 139 reported injuries. In its statement, Honda said that it worked with Takata to test the recalled inflators in the original high-humidity recall regions, and there were no abnormal deployments in these evaluations. Honda will begin notifying owners by "over time," according to its statement. Priority will be put on the geographic areas with the highest risk of ruptures. Those in the original recall region were contacted in September. Earlier in December, Honda partnered with Autoliv to supply the automaker with replacement inflators for this campaign. Autoliv predicted it would take six months for deliveries to start. Takata also increased its production of substitute components. Scroll down to read the company's announcement of this nationwide expansion. Statement by American Honda Regarding National Safety Improvement Campaign: Driver's Front Airbag Inflator Supplied by Takata Dec 8, 2014 - TORRANCE, Calif. Honda will voluntarily expand a regional Safety Improvement Campaign initiated in June 2014 (NHTSA No. 14V-351) into a national Safety Improvement Campaign affecting certain 2001 through 2011 Honda and Acura vehicles in the United States to replace the driver frontal airbag inflator, free of charge. Honda is expanding this Safety Improvement Campaign to address concerns raised by its customers whose vehicles were not included in the regional campaign.
