2002 HONDA INSIGHT CVT AUTO 97K MI 70 MPG!!!!!2000 Honda Insight VIN: JHMZE1376YT003713 condition: excellent cylinders: 3 cylinders drive: fwd fuel: hybrid odometer: 89400 paint color: green size: compact title status: clean transmission: manual type: hatchback 2002 Honda Insight CVT Automatic 97,900 miles. 2 Owner car. This car is capable of miles per gallon in excess of 70! In one of the photos I went and got gas and received 75 mpg! This car has undergone a 2 month rejuvenation to get this car running right to give the buyer a trouble free great running car. Automatic Transmission works perfectly as it should for a car with these low miles. No noises. Transmission fluid changed. IMA battery is STRONG. Freshly charged and discharged and charged this battery should last a long time. Grid charger, discharges, and harness included as all of these cars should be grid charged frequently. Nothing but the best for this car. The grid charger/discharger is from hybridautomotive.com and 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). Charging and discharging will be discussed with the new owner upon pickup. Interior- above average. 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. Exterior- very good. I'd say an 8 out of 10. Numerous scratches from being a 15 year old car but relatively free of dents. Underneath- above average. 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. I must say that this car has "GREAT BONES". These cars are aluminum with aluminum frames but I frequently see the fasteners (bolts) covered in rust. Not on this car. This car has exceptionally clean fasteners. 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 another 200,000-300,000 mi. Oil and Filter - just changed. Ready to go. This car is great for fuel economy. 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 lean burn easily or go into auto-stop. If you carefully examine the last 2 photos that shows the car in "auto-stop" which saves a ton of gas. You guys buying these cars with bad tranny's and IMA's (battery pack) 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. Money was no issue in making this the best that it can be. 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 over 30 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" 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 70 MPG's and has NO problems with a great battery and tranny with a grid charger and low miles for under $5k? 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 (seller id: galevin) and NEVER had a positive comment and not going to start now. I want both of us happy. I have spent too much time working on getting this car ready. My last Insight I sold in 2 days to the first guy that saw it. You will be very happy with this car. All I ask is you complete this transaction on a timely basis (one week) and pay an immediate paypal deposit of $500 when you buy this car. I drove 1000 mi round trip to Kansas to buy this car and taking a loss on it but I make money with my investments, not on Insights. This hobby has been an absolute joy that I wouldn't trade for anything. Many of the Insight enthusiasts know me for having the world's largest (and best) InsightFest last fall at my property. I'm here to protect my reputation and will make any problem right. I'm here to make you happy and keep these Insights on the road.
