I would never have bought the original insight, for its lack of space. It was pretty useless, and it would have required owning another car to do anything else in. Even my Integra GSR has four doors. I can fit my snowboard and skis into it, or my mountain bike if I take the front wheel off (seat folds). Snow tires allow me to pass 4WD's with all season tires going up into the Rockies to ski. I still get 33-35 mpg. Also, unlike the old CRXs and so forth, I have two airbags and 2700 lbs of car wrapped around me. A few mpg is not worth my safety and quality of life.
