You will need to type the values at least once to convert from paper to
bits, but you need not type in the INSERT command. Type them in Excel,
or in a text editor... save the file as a CSV file, then load the file
in SQLite (I believe there is a command to load CSV... if not, use the
editor's capability to add the INSERT INTO car bit with the correct
parens and quotes, etc.).
Make sure to quote the text, and not the numbers. Make sure the values
are in the same order as the columns, and you won't even have to name
the columns.

do you already have the data in another format?
csv?, excel?, space delimited?
just about any consistent format can be handled via one of many of
the scripting languages.
