So since I bought the Fiesta, I need to sell the Insight. It is Citrus Yellow (Lime green to my eyes), a manual with A/C, Reasonably clean overall with 106K miles. Just installed Daewoo Matiz springs to fix the factory installed bottoming out and the only thing modified on it right now is a set of better speakers, the springs, and a custom made AL bike rack that the previous owner had made up. 2013, battery was replaced. I can't find any pictures on me at the moment but will get some later if there is any interest. Located in Columbia, MO.
Edit: new price to GRMers $4300.

That's the best color for the insight. Looks pretty clean! GLWS!
Thanks, it seems to be the most sought after color. People still didn't notice it and would merge. The only real exterior damage is the scratch, paint is a little thin on the hood but being a plastic hood I think that is unavoidable.
How is the trans and tires? Clean car all things considered.
Transmission has a very subtle grind on downshift into 2nd. From what I have read, mine is very mild compared to a lot of them. Also, sometimes a small grind into reverse. Neither happen ever time though.
Tires have around 20k miles on them and have excellent tread. They aren't the OE tires though and have a fair amount of road noise.
What are you guys seeing for similar miles and condition? I just had a guy (with at least 5 insights) offer me $3500 and swear that is what it is worth?
I've seen these priced all over the place and I think your asking price is fair. The only things working against you are: original battery pack? And the year. I just did a quick search in my area and saw much lower asking prices, but one was a CVT and the other has something bent in the rear suspension.
Mine had the battery professional replaced in 2013,right before I bought it.
I think you're pretty close on your asking price....and you know I'm a cheapskate. When I was looking at these a couple years ago it seems like you had the cleanish cared-for examples going for $4k-$7k, and then another layer of beaters that usually needed batteries going for $1k-$3k. That was a couple years ago though.

Unless I missed it you should definitely mention that in your listing.
I missed it. Have it in CL ad and added it here.
Head unit not included
The post on the rear bumper isn't a trailer hitch. It is the wrong size for that. The PO had a really nice custom bike rack made. This is included with the sale.
This is just missing tape and the black stuff is glue, not missing paint.
