Okay, so after a couple year hiatus I am back in action on the forum!! Hopefully some old friends are on the forum. I'll be looking for ya.
This spring I decided that I needed to find a small economical commuter car to go to school and work and save the Honda s2000 for fun days. I started my search for something a little different but from the same factory.
I have wanted this car since before the s2000 and it has always been dear to my heart but not economically feasible.
So I went to craigslist to find a bargain...and that I did. I found this at a dealership with only 39k miles on the clock, a one owner, "little old lady" story. She traded in this 2000 Insight and a 2002 CR-V both with low miles on it. She must have just used them for grocery getting and church on sundays. I flew out to Cleveland, OH from Dallas, TX to pick this sweet thing up on 4/21/2010
On the way back home on 4/22/2010 Earth day no less
I was planning on seeing old friends from college in Evansville (where I found this forum and started with my 96 Civic LX) to Texas taking my time on the way back. I am pleased to report that over 1490 miles I burned a little less than 23 gallons of fuel for a 65 mpg average
