Selling my 2000 Honda Insight.  It has served me well as a commuter but have a need for a larger car and alas this has to go.  It has a clear title and has roughly 185k on the car. 

It's a 5sp manual with new tires and a 3cyl engine, the car runs great!.. No issues with driving across the US with this one.  I commuted 100miles+ daily in this car.

Back 3 windows are tinted.  
Has K&N Air Filter.
I originally purchased the car with a bad Hybrid back and thought I would need to buy a new hybrid pack, I started driving this and noticed that because I do so many highway miles the hybrid bring disabled did not make a difference.  I bypassed the hybrid system so I could run like a normal car.  The car charges the 12v battery without issues and you don't have to worry about charging anything to keep the car on the road. It's a 100% solid commuter and has yielded me up to 73mpg on longer commutes. In the summer months I would typically average 55 to 60mpg and in Winter it would range from 48 to 55mpg..  The transmission also has the common 3rd to 2nd and 2nd to 1st downshift synchro issue.  This doesn't affect driveability, and you can drive without issues, just a quirk that is a trait to all first gen Insights.  I've put on around 30k+ Miles since I've owned it and never had any issues it just runs, and does a great job doing such.  If you're looking for a solid and reliable commuter car or something you and your significant other can take on long trips, this is a great car that will keep your money where it should be..  In your possession and not the possession of the oil companies.

Honda overhauls North American operations with eye towards more autonomy

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

The increasing sales success of Honda North America (HNA) has led to Honda brass in Japan reorganizing regional operations here. The management shuffling here and in Japan is intended to both streamline and confer more responsibility on HNA "as the region assumes a larger role in shaping Honda's global business," and as Honda builds more facilities that serve several roles in the product development pipeline.
Honda's executive vice president and president of HNA Tetsuo Iwamura was named COO of automotive operations, taking over a position that had been handled by company president Takanobu Ito. Iwamura's new role puts him in charge of anything Honda makes that has four wheels, which Automotive News says equates to 78 percent of the company's global revenue.
The current company CFO, Fumihiko Ike, will fill the now-vacant role of company chairman and Kohei Takeuchi will take his place. Takeuchi is presently the operating officer, general manager of the accounting division. The executive swaps take effect April 1, 2013.

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.

2014 Honda Odyssey first minivan to earn Top Safety Pick+ award [w/video]

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

You know an automaker is confident about the safety of its vehicles when it asks one of the top crash test agencies to destroy one of its newest models. That's exactly what happened with the 2014 Honda Odyssey. According the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Honda requested that the agency run the updated Odyssey through its full barrage of tests, and for good reason.
Aside from slight styling upgrades and a new optional HondaVac built-in vacuum cleaner, the 2014 Odyssey was also given a more rigid passenger compartment using high-strength steel to help better protect occupants. It obviously worked. Following the crash tests, the 2014 Odyssey became the first minivan to earn a Top Safety Pick+ rating, but, more importantly, it did so with "Good" ratings in all five crash categories (four "Goods" and one "Acceptable" are enough for the TSP+). Impressive.
Scroll down for the crash-test video from the IIHS along with a press release.
