Vehicle Detail
2002 HONDA INSIGHT CVT AUTOMATIC ONE OWNER CAR WITH A/C Only 67k original mi. Title states miles are "actual". Been working on this car for the last month getting it right. This car is correct and needs nothing and runs great. Automatic Transmission works perfectly as it should for a car with these low miles. No noises, no problems. CVT tranny fluid just changed. IMA battery is STRONG as it was replaced appx 6000 mi ago by Honda. Receipt will be given to new owner. Freshly charged and discharged and charged this battery should last a long time. Grid charger and harness included as all of these cars should be grid charged frequently. The grid charger/discharger is from hybridautomotive.com and I believe is appx $400 without the installation charge. Of course the harness is installed and you should grid charge all insights on an as needed basis (appx every 2-4 weeks). Interior- above average. A/C blows cold. Stereo system and speakers were upgraded by the original owner and sound is awesome. I removed the seats and door panels, washed and cleaned the seat covers and door panels thoroughly outside the car and reinstalled. The carpets were freshly shampooed. Interior I would say is a 8.5+/10 Exterior- average. There is only 1 door ding on the lower portion of the passenger door but there are multiple nicks and scratches. If you are looking for a show car then this is not for you. If you are looking for a car that looks nice, performs well with a fresh battery with low mi then this is the car. Tires are NEW and correct for this car. I had the car professionally waxed and buffed and detailed. Exterior I would say is a 8/10 Underneath- nice. All underneath body panels intact and even the body panels were cleaned and polished (my friends thought I was nuts doing this). Engine compartment-above average. Had this professionally detailed. Mechanics-above average. No check engine lights, tranny purrs as it should for low miles, motor fires right up and sounds great. Should last easily for 300,000-400,000 mi as these cars go forever. Oil and Filter - just changed. Ready to go. This car has a lifetime ave of 41.1 mpg. I've been averaging over 60mpg in this car and my last 15 mi trip got me close to 63mpg. This car is great for fuel economy if you drive it accordingly. My girlfriend, who has road rage, only gets 40 mpg because she could care less about mileage. A friend of mine in Las Vegas just recently achieved over 100 MPG on a tank of gas (10 gal tank 1000+ mi). In temperatures of 95-100+ degrees he would drive with the windows up, no a/c of course and get huge mpg. But he's a little nuts...and so am I. Just shows you what can be achieved with these cars. Great cars if you drive a lot or if you are just frugal. I'm neither. I just like the look of the car and want to be as gas independent as I can without getting too nuts. Car also goes into auto-stop easily which is where the engine shuts off when idling and starts instantaneously when you step on the gas. This helps your mpg greatly and some Insights don't go into auto-stop. You guys buying these cars with bad tranny's and IMA's will be faced with possible repairs of $4k or more. This car is done. Tranny purrs. Strong IMA. Engine has ZERO leaks. Get in, drive and send me a thank you after you have the car. I spent the last month working on this car to make it right and its right. No corners cut. Gas tank-on full of course. No issues. PERIOD. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this car. I'm appx 20 miles NW of Indianapolis, IN and you can fly in to IND (Indianapolis, IN airport) and I'll meet you at the airport and you can drive home. Anywhere including Timbucktoo. This car is ready to go. I am not a dealer but a retired enthusiast that has a ton of these cars that I enjoy working on. I'm not going to sell a car and then have you give me a negative for whatever reason as I have many more to go. But as of now just this one for sale. No sight seers of "InsightWorld" and no parts for sale as I'm too busy enjoying what I do. Here to sell a great car for a great price. Where else can you get a car that can go 60 MPG's and has NO problems with a great battery and tranny with a grid charger and low miles for under $6k? I am selling this "as is" with no warranties expressed or implied. With that said if there is a problem, let me know about it. I have thousands of positive comments on ebay and NEVER had a negative comment and not going to start now. I want both of us happy. My last 3-4 Insights on ebay sold prior to auction end. Give me a reasonable offer and I'll remove it from the auction. You will be very happy with this car. All I ask is a $500 deposit immediately after you buy and you pay the balance within one week. This hobby has been an absolute joy that I wouldn't trade for anything. Clear title on hand. BTW the world's largest collection of Insights will be at my house for the National Insight Meet the weekend before Labor Day. We will have enthusiasts from all over the country including a special guest from London, England. Seminars, other enthusiasts, food, lift in garage for demonstrations/seminars, camping, swimming pool, etc. Go to Insightcentral.net and search for InsightFest 2016 for more info. If you don't buy my car at least consider making it to InsightFest 2016. It is something you wont want to miss. Call if any questions: Gerald 3 1 7 four four one 3 2 3 1. Thanks
