Re: Insight Owners: Did You Ever Have a Honda CRX?
Had an 88 Si that I bought new. Drove it hard and still would get 36+mpg. Not sure of top speed, only had it past 135 a few times. It would have RX-7's for lunch! Other than a 67 BB Camaro, I missed this car the most.

Re: Insight Owners: Did You Ever Have a Honda CRX?
I had an '89 CRX Si. I knew the hybrid technology was just about to be on the market and planned to get one ASAP. So I got the '00 Insight and for a month had both cars while I lined up a private buyer. That was interesting to alternate between the two cars.
The first day I sped to work in the Insight, I was grumbling to myself that maybe I'd made a mistake because it wasn't fast enough. Then I looked down and saw I was doing 96 mph...
Fourteen years later, the Insight is still doing its thing. I've moved cross country and now live on a serious dirt road so I'm off roadking every day in it and so far so good. Good thing I replaced the original (!) struts last year.
Now I am faced with prospect of replacing this little beast after so many years of faithful service. After seeing how they treated the Insight like a red headed stepchild, I think I'm done with Honda and am leaning towards a VW TDI. sigh.
