2000 Honda Insight 5mt 97k Miles All Original on 2040-cars
Villa Rica, Georgia, United States
|
Photos speak for themselves. The glossy paint is all original and there is zero collision history. Car was purchased new by my father in 2000, and has been in the family the entire time - I know the history. Garage-kept since new. Upgraded stereo speakers - best the Crutchfield sells for this model. New floor mats. Body is all-aluminum. Interior is nearly flawless. Seats are in great shape. The gas motor runs great - instant start, rated power, no leaks, no oil consumption. All scheduled maintenance has been performed since the car was new. Always adult driven - Dad was 92 when we took away the keys over his objections. Driven daily since 2010. The worst case on the IMA is a $2500 battery replacement. I am OK with the price reflecting the repair cost, but the enthusiast community has lots of on-line information for keeping old batteries working. The battery was replaced about six years ago under warranty, and the IMA worked fine until recently. I hope to see this car find a home with someone who appreciates how special it is - the first and still be best hybrid electric on the US market. EPA highway rating was 70 MPG, and there are driving techniques to take that number past 100. At the same time, the handling and acceleration reach sport car levels, at least when the electric boost is operating. Check my feedback - I take really good care of my cars, and next owners are always happy with their purchase. |

Takata airbag victim looked like she had been stabbed
Tue, 21 Oct 2014We generally take certain principals for granted. The more water you drink, for example, the healthier you'll be. The more time you spend reading car news on Autoblog, the better informed you'll be. And the more airbags your car has, the safer you'll be. Because airbags equal safety. But that's not what some unfortunate drivers of vehicles equipped with Takata airbags are finding, and tragically finding out the hard way.
In what could be the most startling incident resulting from the airbag debacle so far, a woman named Hien Tran of Orlando, FL, was killed by what looked at first like stab wounds on her neck. It later emerged that the fatal injuries could have been inflicted by the faulty airbag on her Honda Accord. Tran bought her Honda secondhand, and may not have been aware that the airbag issue had not been addressed by its previous owner in a previous recall in 2009.
The Orange County Sheriff's Department is investigating the death, but it wouldn't be the only injury resulting from the malfunctioning Takata airbags. The units, employed particularly by Japanese automakers like Honda (which owns part of Takata) and Toyota, are the subject of a massive recall involving some 14 million vehicles from 11 different automakers.
Honda Walking Assist Device begins US testing at Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago
Sun, 17 Nov 2013For years, we've been wondering what implications Honda's Asimo robot could have in the real world, and now we're starting to get a sense of that. Honda announced that it will begin its first US clinical studies of the Walking Assist Device at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago in an effort to provided improved mobility for people who have suffered a stroke. While the automotive tie-in here is pretty weak, this is the first time we've heard about this device since it was unveiled back in 2008.
Weighing in at six pounds, Honda's device is fitted to the waist and legs of patients to make it easier to walk, and the 22.2-volt lithium-ion battery provides enough electricity for more than an hour of operation. According to Honda's press release, which is posted below, up to 80 percent of the almost 800,000 stroke victims each year (in the US alone) are afflicted with limited mobility, so a medical aid like this could have a big impact in the real world.
Is Honda working on airbags for smartphones?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Smartphones are expensive yet delicate - a single impact on a hard surface can shatter their touchscreens, often damaging them beyond repair. Fitting a case offers only so much protection, but what about an airbag? Honda has explored the concept with the airbag-equipped Case N and even made a video about it. But alas, it isn't real.
For some reason, we really want it to be. Honda has a knack for surprising us with nearly unbelievable inventions designed to improve mankind's quality of life, contraptions like the Walking Assist Device and the UNI-CUB personal mobility devices, so the Case N isn't as far-fetched an idea for the company as you might think.
Head below to watch the video, where you can see the Case N concept in action. You'll also see its generous proportions, which is one reason why it's just a case of Honda humor - not (yet) a market reality.
