Its all perspective and how you see things thru your prisim.
I came from a 2008 Honda Civic. Could not wait to get rid of it. SUPER cheap, noisy and would feel like its shaking apart at 70mph. Heck the way they fold the doors have cut my man tit wide open twice that i can recall.
My insight is quiet. Simply quiet, NOT SILENT but quiet. By comparison i rode in my wife's Mitsu Outlander for the 1st time in months. Thought i was in the center of a tornado. THAT is a noisy car, road noise, wind noise everything. My Insight is a far quieter ride than my civic.
Funny thing is my friends who are car buffs have all read the reviews of the G2 Insight, and then rode my car.. and all mention how they felt the reviews were unfair. They say they hear NO hybrid whine, NO road noise etc etc.
If you are coming from a luxuary european car, why on earth would you be in an Insight? Honestly?
My insight purrs at 80 mph, and is quick enough on small streets to get me a ticket easily.
In my driving, i am only getting 43-46 mpg. I wish my numbers were higher.
As far as Overall Car Satisfaction, i really do like this car. I wish the Navi/Ipod systems were more refined. I really do enjoy driving this car.
