2002 Honda Insight 1 Owner Socal Car, Ima Battery Replaced Less Than 20k Ago on 2040-cars
Monrovia, California, United States
We are listing our very
clean 2002 Honda Insight (First Generation) that has approximately 71,930 miles
(see odometer picture). The body panels are very straight with some
rock/debris chips, which is visible to the eye upon close inspection.
This Insight has never been in an accident or had any touch-up done to the
original factory finish. We are the original owners, purchased new in 2002 in
Monrovia CA. The only major work done to the car since new was to have the IMA
battery replaced by Honda, last done on 9-28-2010, when the car had 52,693
miles. The same Honda dealer we purchased the car from has performed all
regular oil changes and service checks.
The car is a joy to drive
and as you can see in the pictures has averaged 45.1 MPG for the life of the
car. We are confident this number would be higher if we did not live at the
base of the foothills. At times we have seen average trip MPG calculations in
the high 60’s.
A Kenwood stereo replaces
the original radio so you can connect your iPhone or iPod to the car. The original factory radio is also included
with the car.
All systems work,
including the factory A/C that will keep the occupants cool on the hottest day.
As you can see in the pictures the underside of the car is very clean thanks to
the warm and dry climate the car has spent its entire existence in. Even the
exhaust system is rust free and looks and performs like new despite being 12
years old now. The spare tire has never been used.
The car 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 can 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 within 7 days
following the deposit. ??Thanks for your interest and please ask if you have
any questions. ??

105-year-old Facebook user gifted new car anonymously
Mon, 26 Aug 2013105-year-old Edythe Kirchmaier is quite a woman. Not only is she California's oldest driver - she just renewed her license this January after passing the test without incident - she has a perfect 86-year driving record without so much as a parking violation. In fact, she's been driving for so long that she learned how on a Ford Model T (how many people alive today have even driven one of those, much less learned on one?). On top of all that, Edythe is a philanthropist; she's been volunteering at Direct Relief, which provides free medications for people in need, for 40 years. You may have even seen her on TV earlier this year spreading the word.
So when Edythe's 1997 minivan began breaking down, an anonymous fan did what any completely selfless person of means would: they gifted her a brand-new 2013 Honda Civic, ensuring that Edythe can continue working for the cause she loves. Check her out on Facebook - she's the social media site's oldest registered user - and scroll down to the press release for more on this heartwarming story.
Bisimoto 2014 Honda Odyssey packs 1,029 hp plus the kids
Wed, 06 Nov 2013You know, the last time I drove a Honda Odyssey, I thought, "Man, this thing could really use another 781 horsepower." Thank goodness for the folks at Bisimoto, then, who have brought this "Power-Van" to the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. It's your standard seven-passenger Honda Odyssey with massive powertrain tuning to deliver a full 1,029 horsepower. Honda has not listed the torque output, but we imagine it's roughly eleventy billion foot-pounds.
That crazy power bump has been achieved through the use of - *deep breath* - an Infinity ECU, Arias pistons, ARP headstuds and bolts, Bisimoto's own 360-degree oil cap, a cat-back exhaust system, stainless mufflers, an improved fuel pump, new spark plugs, custom headwork, R&R custom steel rods, Turbonetics BTZ7265 twin turbochargers, a wastegate, blowoff valve, VP racing fuels and a whole lot more. Honda says the only chassis/suspension modifications come in the way of Fifteen52 wheels, 225/30-series Toyo T1 Sport tires and Young Guns performance exhaust coatings. So as far as we can tell, this thing still uses a front-wheel-drive setup. I bet it'll do somersaults.
Of course, this is SEMA, where we assume there's a four-modification minimum for any car that enters the Las Vegas Convention Center, so the Odyssey has been given added visual flair, as well. Outside, that means there's a Denmatic design theme, a whole mess of Honda accessories (check out that roof tub) and some new paint. Inside, upgraded upholstery has been fitted, as have Recaro seats.
Ford F-150 bumps Camry from top of Cars.com American Made Index
Tue, 25 Jun 2013With July 4th just around the corner, what better time could there be for Cars.com to announce that the Ford F-150 is the Most American car of 2013? This may be especially true since it was the Toyota Camry, a car produced by a company based in Japan, that had held the top spot from 2009 to 2012.
Cars.com compiles its Most American list by considering the amount of parts each vehicle uses that come from America, where it's final assembly takes place and how many units per year are sold. "While the assembly point and domestic parts content of the F-150 didn't change from 2012-2013, vehicle sales are responsible for bumping the F-150 to the top spot," according to Patrick Olsen, Editor-in-Chief of Cars.com.
As far as automakers go (as opposed to individual models), Toyota retains the top spot it held in 2012, with General Motors, Chrysler, Ford and Honda (in that order) rounding out the list. The motivation behind this list each year, according to Olsen, is "to help car shoppers understand that 'American-Made' extends beyond just the Detroit three" and because "a study we conducted in 2012 indicated that 25 percent of shoppers surveyed preferred to buy American."
