trying to research on the possible buying of a used or new honda insight:
I talked to a guy who has 80k+ miles on a 3 year old 02 insight. He said he has had ZERO problems! He said he gets 70mpg+ most of the time. Since I don't see how I can do a poll here I will do it manually (really more like a survey).
-p.s. I had a chance for a 2000 red insight, no ac for 8K with only 60k miles, I think I made a BIG mistake by not getting that one then! ; ( the ones Im seeing now are either 2k more, or have a lot more miles on them.
Q1. did you buy new or used, how much did you pay? What kind of tax break did you get?
Q2. year of insight & manual or cvt?
Q3. Listing of mods for mpg.
Q4. avg mpg and how many miles do you have on it? Im especially curious to see how many high milage insights with no problems there are.
Q5. MOST IMPORANT Q, what problems have you had and how much have they cost (not including maint.)? im particularly concerned about the battery pack and ima system.
Q6. looking back on it would you have bought it again, done something different (like paying less or going with a mod sooner), or bought something else (like prius, civic hybrid etc.)
