First Post: Honda Insight

I am not very good at this but I'll give it a try. A few days ago I went to a Honda dealership and while my parents are looking at an Accord Crosstour, I take a peek at a Honda Insight and I think OH GOD! This was a very cheap feeling car. It so blank and there was nothing there! It reminds me of a Hyundai Accent in terms of content and space. The seats were flat and all the plastics feel like they belong on a cheap toy rather than a $23000 car! It really was that bad. The "piano black" background for the insight was not nice. The radio looks like it was stolen from a Kia and it was not nice. I sit in the back and it was not to bad. It was a little more spacious than I expected and trunk space was okay, but it is hard to get up because it is in a weird angle. What really got me in the interior was the air conditioning vents. Were they really trying to cut cost that they couldn't put a regular vent. It was like this round cylinder with vents. How you adjust it is by turning the cylinder then to shut it off you turn it all the way 90 degrees. It was that bad. I would not recommend this car. But it still has that Honda name and dammit. It still holds it resale and is a hybrid so you get the gas mileage. If Honda can sell this for less, like $17000 then it would be good, but I don't see where the value comes from for this thing.
