I understand where you would think the Insight is a snoozer. It's got a face only a mother could love. It came from a time when Honda was making innovations in the car industry. I'm of the opinion that Honda kind of lost there way over the last ten years or so. I think that they are now trying to find there way back and make some exciting cars. There is a bunch of technology in the Insight that, for me, makes it intriguing. Try one out.....you might like it.

/15 Audi A6 3.0T (cold weather package, sport package, Bose, LED headlights) that replaced my beloved /06 TL that I had for 9 years/140,000 very trouble-free miles -- best car I ever had. Sold to friend and I see it every few weeks -- wishing I kept it but he really needed a car. I am penning a letter to John Ikeda about the old TL and reasons why I defected to the Audi camp (love the A6 and it is a different class of car than the TL but I was not happy to leave the Acura family -- TLX sadly nowhere near as good as the old TL -- too small, wonky automatic trans and the FWD version handled like crap, and then no spare tire unless you buy the kit?? Ugh.). At least I still have my NSX and I'm under no illusions -- Audi does not = Acura and once warranty over on the A6 I hope to move back to Acura. I don't want to be around for the inevitable Audi post warranty issues (although the A6 3.0T is reputed to be reliable) and Audi's very arrogant/stingy attitude as regards post warranty goodwill assistance to its customers.
Best,

2006 Ford Fusion V6. Unremarkable yet very competent and reliable. And unlike some of the guys on this thread who drive surprisingly nice cars every day, I'm unconcerned about the milage accumulation on the odometer.
2014 Mazda CX5.
2013 Acura ILX 2.4 6-speed manual

Goes well with what it's ACTUALLY called...

Motorcycles make great DD in good weather - but hard to justify in bad weather.
We recently picked up another s2000 ~ they are amazing DD as long as you don't need a large trunk or carry people.

Sold my 1993 Integra GS-R and picked up a 1993 Toyota MR2 turbo for the DD...along with the CR-V and Ruckus.

I sold my Acura TL daily driver a bought a 2009 Audi S6 with the Lambo based V10, 5.2 Liter, 435 HP engine. In a straight line it is reportedly 1/10 of a second slower from 0 to 60 than my NSX, according to I believe Car & Driver.

Just came across this topic.
Actually, my daily driver is very simple, a Honda Insight with the IMA Hybrid drive from 2009.
Really like that car, very comfortable and fuel efficient. In many ways the opposite of the NSX but of course much, much cheaper to run. Which is exactly why I got it. Bought it in (2nd hand) in 2016.

Pacing my former race group buddies. Tough job, but somebody's got to do it.
