Default Seen any others on the road yet?

Just curious if any of you guys have passed another Insight yet? I haven't, but a friend said she saw two in Boston this week (but she's not really into cars, so I can't be certain she wasn't just seeing Priuses or Fits )

I have yet to see another on the road in my area. As of last Wednesday when I picked mine up the dealer had only sold two others. I think they'll be few and far between for a few months, but I'm sure there will be lots around later this year.

I know the one other one they had in sold but I have not seen it on the rode yet. I did test drive that one and they were both EX. So I just went with grey instead of red.

My dealer did have 3 more coming in though in the next couple weeks that people had preordered so I figure since I'm in a smallish town now (34,000). I may see them around.

As the last person said by later in the year I think you will see more. I know people have been interested in it when its out and about and the price is certainly reasonable.

Default Haven't seen any here in Hollywood

I drove her to the Dodgers home opener today. I suspect I was the only Insight II there.

I also went to the car wash, and the dudes there commented that they have never seen one...

I know there are some out there! Haven't seen them just yet

Actually I think I might have just seen one! Unless there's a very similar looking car with the clear sky blue color.

I haven't seen another one on the road either. But yes, my car drew some attention in gas station and Costco.

When I have splash guards installed at dealer, the service rep said it is his first time servicing an Insight.

I supposed this counts...

saw a red one while driving by my dealership yesterday. It was pulling out of the dealership and had actual plates, so it must have been bought. Also there was no salesman in the car.

Kind of neat seeing another one on the road.
