An first generation Insight is a sought after gem around here. Congrats. I think that car is infinitely better looking. You traded up and really smart. I'm sure the other guy got something he wanted too. Which is also cool. One thing I learned about hybrids on this site is that you can get the batteries "repaired" when they wear out and save thousands. I would bet you know that already with your background, but just in case, thought I would mention it. Welcome. Oh! And join "Team hONDA" -- with that car you'll do way wicked well really soon and probably bump me out of position 7 or 8.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
