man i miss driving stick sometimes... hybrid and 5spd is just the best of both worlds... oh honda why did you stop!?!?!

Hi Larry:

___That HCH-I went out at a great price too … To bad I was not in the market right now as she is yet another automobile I would be considering ;) Its lean-burn 1.3 for the highway and a stick for around town slicing and dicing. Figure out a way to disable IMA’s assist for the around town stuff and you have one heck of a hypermiling automobile. And her miles were so low too!

___Good Luck

wouldn't IMA be dead weight then? unless you just wanted IMA to stop and start the engine and nothing else.

Hi Phil:

___IMA on a Honda is dead weight to me other then spinning that fantastic 1,000 RPM spin up before the injectors are turned loose as soon as the key is turned and of course absorbing some regen for yet another spin up later on when I actually do have to touch the brakes :(

___Still, $10K for what looks to be a pristine 03 HCH-I w/ a stick was a bargain!

___Good Luck
