Find the "in service date" for the battery warranty, you may have at least a few months before your warranty truly expires.
My 2001 CVT red Insight with 126,000 miles i got for $3,200. That battery IMA'd 3 months later but still runs fine. Had it happened before i bought it i could've had it for $2,500-$3,000. It's in really good shape but it has a few dings and scratches. Unless your paint job looks immaculate i'd say $4k is unreasonable, but you never know what people will pay these days.
My car was traded in the minute the warranty expired and the IMA light didn't go off. As i'm sure is why there are a good deal of 00-01 Insights for sale. My suggestion if you want a high price, put it on ebay with a reserve and if it never reaches your reserve, well now you have an idea of what it should go for.
