Like many here I maintain an interest in the Insight 1, and would love to have one. But, I'm begining to wonder what the future of the car might be. No one wants to own an orphan.

1. Will Honda continue to supply the battery pack at a reasonable cost, long after the 150,000 mi warranty (I think it is) expires?

2. Will Honda technicians continue to be tained to troubleshoot and maintain the car?

3. In the absence of either of the above, will reliable independent resources spring up for such a low production car?

4. Other complications to ownership of an obsolete, low production volume car?

I'm sure that Honda probably hasn't answered these questions, but even knowledgable speculation would be welcome. I'm contemplating the purchase of a car, but the BIG questions have me stalled. Thanks folks. Great site as always!
