But consider. You're a retiree and don't drive much. But when you do drive, you want to make as little impact as you can manage. So you buy an Insight. You use it for your errands and runabouts and whatnot. You put a few K miles on it over the course of 10-12 years or so. You get older. You decide its time to sell it. By which time the car has attained cult status and become an icon. I guess that makes you a money wasting fool?

Purchased at $50 less than NADA mid-book at $5550, current mid-book is $8600. Too fragile to be a weekly driver, and not as economical as the Dasher; but it makes everyone up and down the street smile, so there's that.
The Insight is a poor-man's VW XL1, with the motor at the wrong end.
