eBay (not mine): Texas - 2000 Honda Insight, 5 spd, 150k mi, no reserve

Noticed it because of the link to EcoModder in the description:

2000 Honda Insight with 152000 miles. Clean Texas title in my name in hand. The car runs and drives just as it should. Every thing works. It gets great MPG !

The interior shows ok there are a few spots on drivers side where the carpet is warn. the dash, seats and cargo area are all in good shape
The outside looks very nice with a few chips on hood, mirrors and bumpers with a ding on the right rear 1/4 by the wheel about the size of a nickel.

Mechanical the only problem to note is that it grinds when downshifting to second gear above 20mph all of the upshifting works great. Most Insights 2000-2006 have the downshifting issue for more info :

Over all nice little Honda Insight

I'll be interested to see what it brings. It's hard to figure out the value of these cars, they seem to be all over the map.
