Replying to: lucien4 (Mar 01, 2009 8:59 am) Thanks for the excellent information and pictures.   I will be calling the dealer about the ETA and the rollout date this week. I would be surprised if they brought up a "market adjustment" markup, knowing it might kill the deal. His sales were off 50% this past month, but of course they're expecting a big bump in sales in another few weeks.   ha ha.

Replying to: dweiser (Mar 01, 2009 9:02 am) The $19,995 was shown on Motorweek a few weeks ago. They say they got their base price from Honda. Honda has said they wanted to keep the Insight under $20,000. At $19,995 they have accomplished that. I assume the EX w/o navi will be $2,000 more. That will keep the price under the Prius and the Civic Hybrid. They need to have that niche pricing.Therefore, $21,995 for the EX w/o navi.

Replying to: rookie60 (Mar 01, 2009 8:42 am) I expect the LX to be $19,995 and the EX to be $21,995.   ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////- ///////////////////////////   Although these figures are about $1K more than originally anticipated, I believe you very, very close. The yen-USD exchange rate will almost prohibit lower MSRP than the numbers above. That said, Honda will try to hit these numbers including destination charges so the advertised MSRP may end up around $19.3K and $21.3K.   The EX w/navi should be about $23K plus a $700 destination charge.

#59 of 212 2010 insight Federal tax credit? by 204meca Mar 19, 2009 (7:46 pm)
Anyone know if the 2010 Insight will qualify for the Fed hybrid tax credit? If so, what would the dollar amount be? Thanks. Replies to this message: moondog6 (Mar 22, 2009 8:56 am) backy (Mar 22, 2009 9:01 am)
#60 of 212 Re: 2010 insight Federal tax credit and updating my 2010 Insight experience by moondog6 Mar 22, 2009 (8:56 am)
Replying to: 204meca (Mar 19, 2009 7:46 pm) Any new car, including a freakin' Hummer tank, qualifies for the tax credit this year. Sadly (and foolishly), there is no additional hybrid credit that I know of, apart from the plug-in model offers, or what some individual states might offer.   My Insight salesman informs me that many other dealers will impose a $1500 additional markup to the price, to which I ask: why? Are they in such demand? Are car sales in general going great? More to the point, are gas prices so high that they can't keep hybrids on the lot? It is totally absurd. I won't pay it, particularly as the Priuses are being discounted to move them. He still has no date for arrival of my tango red EX w/navi, but he agreed that the price is $23,770.   Has anyone seen any Insights on the Honda lots yet?

Replying to: moondog6 (Mar 22, 2009 8:56 am) I read a news report the other day that hybrids in general are selling slowly, with a 60-day supply of Priuses for example compared to 2 days last year. There's even a rebate on the Prius now, unheard of in the past. So good luck to Honda dealers who add $1500 to the MSRP of an Insight. At that price it will be competing head-to-head with the Prius price-wise.   I saw the Insight up close at my local auto show yesterday. It looked like an EX but I'm not sure--there was no moonroof. The dash looked better in person than in photos. It was roped off so I couldn't sit in it, so I have no idea whether the back seat would be roomy enough.
#62 of 212 I'm going to wait & see by dweiser Mar 22, 2009 (9:07 am)
I'm #1 on several local Honda dealer's Insight lists but I may not buy one, at least not right away due to their attitude. I think they (wrongly) think there will be a stampede into their showrooms for the new Insight and like backy above, I just don't see that stampede for this vehicle happening with gas prices low again and an economy in the toilet. Besides, what I'd really love to own is a plug-in, not some Prius wanna-be vehicle.
