bros, on the maintenance cost, why the cost shoot up to RM454 for 20k km and RM1k for 40k km?

Anyone can enlighten me on this?

Also, any shop recommendation if I wanna do 3M tint?

Thanks in advance

Just did my 1st 1000km service.
1st time experience Honda service center and would say, superb service and they make me feel worth every penny spent on this Insight.

ZeroSP ..PM me price for floor mat and boot mat.

Guys, do you fill up the whole rectangular number plate area or just like the below image? I find this size nicer.

dear WHITE insight owners (those already taken delivery), do you regret getting white? Im asking to determine if I should change color from Silver. I know white is a beuatiful color on the Insight, just the dirty black marks worries me. Just to see those already taken delivery of their white cars if anyone regret this color.

Can PM me if you do not wish to post in the open. Thanks in advance

all i can say, regardless what color, if you dont take care of it, it will leave stains and water mark.
just apply paint protecting or wax, and your problems and worries are solved.
mine if pearl white and no problem at all. wash once a week.

today @ my office carpark, so funny - as i was walking to my car going out for lunch, got one group of guys/girls crowding around my car look here look there... thought WTF... someone banged me!

rush over, then realized they have never seen hybrid before (betui2 sua ku haha)... spent the next 15 mins patiently explaining how hybrid engine works, what's the avg FC and running costs + features of this magnificent CBU.

think after work, some of them sure rush to Honda showroom to see. too bad no more showroom units on display. hmmm.. i should ask H start H Ambassador Program, and earn commission smile.gif

haha. i've experienced that b4 also.
3 in their mid 40's sorrounded my car as i was looking at them from far. in the end, my car window full of their finger prints.

but yesterday as i was walking to my car, there are 2 girls in front of me walking pass my car and obviously they are checking out my car and point at the rear....in the end, both of them shaked their head and walked away...haha, obviously they didnt like the Insight design.

Seller has the right to set any selling price (regardless follow market rate or not) and the buyer has the right to make decision to buy according to the selling price.

If the seller and buyer cannot come to an agreement, full stop and life moves on.

Seriously, I think Honda Malaysia to really check the quality of the Service Advisor in some centers. My service was doned in Sumber Auto SS14, superb service... but the Queue there horrible. eventhou booked and made appointment, still need to wait 2hours. but it was worth it as the service is 100% satisfaction.

today I sent for 2nd service in Kosmo Glenmarie which I bought my Insight there. The service advisor didnt even put up a single smile to any customers and that is the reason why there are only few waiting customers. But luckily, the SA who sold the ride to me chat with me and pretty much the conversation cool me down.

Anyway, any of forumers here bought Side Step Garnish and Trunk lid only?
Wondering how much will it be?
