Default Yellow 2005 Insight for Sale

I've never seen a yellow Insight so decided to share this Craigslist ad: 2005 Honda Insight Hatchback 2D

Looks nice, but too expensive for me. I'm curious to see if 2005s were avail in yellow. I haven't seen it in person, but jambs look original.

You can tell by the picture of the engine bay that the original color was silver. Good luck to seller for trying to get $11,900 with 99K miles.

Agreed. You'd never guess I was journeyman bodyman in the past. I should have noticed the core support and shock towers. Thanks for pointing it out. and thanks to Satchel for the link.

Still, the yellow looks terrific to me.

It does look pretty good. Reminds me of the yellow that late 80s/early 90s Preludes came in.

Since Insight #2 needs to be painted anyway, we plan on getting it painted a custom color some day.

Or maybe the Oxygen Blue that foreign Insights come in. I really like that one.
