  Good start, but not enough for me - 2000 Honda Insight
  By ECR2003 - December 23 - 2:00 am

  The Insight was a great concept from Honda, but unfortunatly dose not do anything for me. I hate the fact I can not get more then 1 passanger in my car. Or the fact in a minor crosswind my car feels like it is going to be blown off the road. Or the fact that when going up hill out of town, I feel it will never make the top. I can barly put three bags of groceries in back without filling the back up. And finaly no machanic (besides honda) will take a look at the think to even attempt a repair, so I am forced to go to honda to have anything replaced.

  This Is It !!! - 2000 Honda Insight
  By ggovert - October 27 - 2:00 am

  When I test drove the Insight it handled great with a lot of pep, and thought this was pretty sharp. I wasnt looking to by a car for myself. Then my dealer made me an offer I couldnt refuse. I drove it home, and got over 90mpg. Since then I average between 55 & 90mpg, depending on how much in a hurry Im in. Definatly the best car Ive ever owned.

  Fun to drive - especially past the gas station! Surprisingly responsive. A technology marvel. It fits two full size adults and two golf bags -- no problems.

  cant beat the gas mileage! - 2000 Honda Insight
  By hempist - May 27 - 2:00 am

  Ive owned this car for 1 1/2 years and Im very happy with it. The gas mileage is the best! I get about 58 mph driving around town. The steering wheel is small & sporty, the car handles great around corners. The most common questions Im asked are, "Do you have to charge it?" (NO) and "Does it go fast?" (YES). This car is a real conversation piece. People ask me about it everywhere I go.

  This is the future - 2000 Honda Insight
  By Armin - March 19 - 2:00 am

  This is the automotive future today! There is no reason why any commuter needs to lug around 5000 pounds of big iron that burns gas at frightening rates. The Insight is the answer: lower fuel consumption, find easier parking, fund to drive, tax deduction, exciting technology and you can feel good about driving it, too!

  A diamond in the rough... - 2000 Honda Insight
  By Gazoo - March 13 - 2:00 am

  Of the ten or so vehicles I have owned, this is by far the best vehicle I have ever owned. Performance is great (keep in mind that it weighs =1800 lbs), its a blast to drive, phenomenal mileage (I averaged 87 mpg on a 250 mile trip once), etc. Ive spent roughly $1100 in gas over 50k miles the 2 years Ive had the Insight. I never realized how much attention this car would receive from all walks and places of life. I cannot say enough positive things about this car. Ill keep it until I die.

  Great Car - 2000 Honda Insight
  By And y Dettling - February 5 - 2:00 am

  This car is a huge step towards non reliance on fossil fuels. SUVs suck! Think about the effects that your personal choices have on the Earth.

  Insight on Maui - 2000 Honda Insight
  By RicCorless - January 31 - 2:00 am

  Since moving to Maui, the Insight has been the perfect vehicle. Regular gasoline at $2/gallon - and driving about 700 miles a month for pleasure, the car is delivering 72-mpg! We dont use the A/C - it doesnt get hot in Maui - which helps the mileage a lot. Weve renovated our home, and all materials except major appliances were transported with this vehicle! I left a superb Mercedes behind, and miss only the sound system.
