Its odd looking at those numbers that Honda is killing the Insight after 06 and still keeping the S around...hmm.

Here is my theory on why rumors of discontinuing the S 2000 keep sufracing. Back in late '99 when the S 2000 first was first available, one of my car mags (Road and Track or Car and Driver) reported on the S 2000 and said it was to be built for a limited production, two year run ONLY. That has clearly proved to be wrong, but rumors die hard.

Thanks,
Richard

The same questions are asked on the Insight forums that are asked here: "What will be the last year of production?"

Too bad Honda isn't making enough Insights. I rarely see them at my dealership.

according to http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/18/honda-k...-of-new-hybrid/ the insight (the most fuel efficient production car) is getting killed off. The new Honda Fit Hybrid should offer much better value though.
