My wife and I just got one. The insight is a well designed car and extremely fun to drive. We almost bought a used prius for the same price but after test driving the Insight we were sold. It is like driving a very sporty car with hybrid ability. I recommend it highly.
The Insight or Prius might be in the low 20s but if you keep the car beyond warranty end, you have to NOW factor in battery replacement. My Insight showed an IMA light. Honda Insight. System Code P1447 IMA Battery Module $5530 Five Thousand five hundred thirty dollars. That is probably more than the cost of a new engine. Buyer beware.
i can't figure out why they are so slow on getting the idea. Detroit is trying to keep the prices at over $30K and all I want is an inexpensive way to work without funding foreign radicals.
I see your point, but I think the problem is that Toyota built the Prius and Honda the Insight. The Prius being a 4 dr 4 passenger was MUCH more practical for the market. The Insight limited it's marketability. Now, many years later, they look like the follower rather than the leader.

@chofizta My guess is that any extended warranty would not cover the batteries anyway.

Doesn't it have to have a warranty that covers the battery if it breaks down below 10000mi/10 yrs?
If not, how much is the extended warranty cost?
