Used Honda Insight for Sale

I bought my Insight certified used through Honda. I've been overall pleased with my car. For a small car it has great space. The gas mileage is a blessing. The quality is excellent and I've had no problems with my car in the 2.5 Years I've owned it.

The Honda Insight is an adequate fuel-saving people mover. With pedestrian seats, an anemic acceleration profile, weird shifting and strange HVAC system, the Honda insight has some rough edges. Honda's approach to hybrid technology is simpler than Toyotas, but falls behind in the fuel-saving categories.

This car produces exceptionally good fuel economy. I average about 50-54 mpg regardless of how I drive, and I drive it most of the time in the 60-75 mph. My Insight is a 2001 that I bought when it had 16,095 miles on it. I bought it from a dealer who told me the older lady who owned it got ill shortly after she bought it, and it sat in the garage for most of the time between 2001 and 2012. My mileage now was 75,926 at my last fill-up, so I have put almost 60,000 on the car. I needed to replace the main battery shortly after I bought the car. Because it sat around for much of the 11 years the lady owned it. When I first bought it, the gas mileage ranged from a low of 47.7 to a high of 60.3 mpg. I would guess the average mileage was about 53-54 mpg. I calculated the gas mileage by keeping meticulous records of when I filled the gas tank, and I compared the Insight's mpg with that calculated by hand. The results were within one to two mpg of what I manually calculated, so the readout gives a pretty honest record of the mpg actually achieved. The largest discrepancy was about three mpg, but it did not happen very often (it happened about three times). The gas mileage was as low as 42.4 mpg on a hot day in July (when I use my A/C a lot), and the average gas mileage now after all those miles is around 51 mpg. I do drive pretty fast now, so that could be a factor because I generally drive 70-75 mph on the highways, and I spend a lot of time on the highway. I have not had too much problem with my Insight, and I really love this car. I take the Insight on long trips, because I prefer better gas mileage with my Insight as compared to my Lincoln Town Car (although the Town Car is much more comfortable!).
