I signed a change.org thing once. They eventually stopped pestering me.
I'd want a petition to recast the G1 in 30x stainless steel.

I'm pretty sure if every previous owner of a new G1 Insight and all the used G1 owners on the planet that followed them and all of their friends and families and everybody they know all signed the petition we could . . . . basically accomplish nothing
But hey, I signed it anyway just in case! RIP awesome little car, miss you (a little) even though I still have one of you sitting in my back yard

They brought back the 1969 camaro so anything is possible.

I wouldn't really hold my breath for some revival of the early Insight, but it wouldn't be so pointless at all. Well, about 10 years ago I could never expect to see so many hybrids on a regular basis as a see nowadays...

There was a company offering brand new 69 camaros for about the price of an overpriced higher end pickup, don't know if they are still doing it.
