hmm.. finally... they online with japan to get more on the jerking issue.

Agree.

I have no problem with the car. I'm lovin it !!!
Good acceleration. Good mileage. Good styling. Good tech. Good brand. Good PRICE !!!
Simple words, find me any imported Japanese car with Insight's specs at price tag of 98K. We compare then.

As for Insight vs Prius. Its getting overboard, why compare 98k to RM139k? Then why dont they buy a Vios and complain doesn't ride or perform as nice as the Camry or a City to a Accord! Shouod compare something within the price range i.e. CKD Vios/City RM90K vs CBU Insight 98K?

it is 99.8K now, not 98K

Err..those guys were talking about resale value, we purchased at 98K ! Did it appreciated?? Owwhh..

but if.. if malaysia gov charges for the tax after 1 month u bought the car. so...we can resell it already... hahaha
i think the price should be rm160k for prius? compare to the 1st rm180k prius?

Hmm..friendly info here..i saw a page from my facebook name
SOPO motor selling insight 2din casing..
but i dint ask price..u can go for ask..

i think price increase due to spart increase after tsunami in sushi land not government impose new tax..

dun u see "IF"

Rule of thumb, supply vs demand.

Now demand for Insight is so excessive, somebody try to soften the demand by increasing the price.

SOS


make sure u get the insight battery.

are the size both of this same. if not mistake civic ima battery more bigger..someone pls clarify

Yes... SA told me is bigger battery pack...

New Civic Hybrid Battery? Lithium Ion?

coz it would be stupid of Honda to put the old civic Hybrid battery into insight...it is heavier and should bigger in size (I can sense some bullshit info given by your SA)

for AP, do they even look at the battery which is pack and hidden away?

tat is old type ima battery

I didnt see the IMA approach as 'oldest'. I think it is more practical, logical, economical. The only thing that they'll replace in near future is battery capacity/material and motor capacity.

Internal combustion engine has been here for 100 years with not much evolution. It still cylinders with pistons. Slotting an electric motor in between engine and gearbox is the easiest and more practical way to boost efficiency. 90% match Toyota's hybrid synergy drive which is more complex.

At the end of the day, if both cars breakdown, honda IMA should be the easier/cheaper system to repair compared to Toyota HSD. Toyota have the honour to come up with complex system as they are leading the market.

To put it simple, we will appreciate Insight even more if the fuel price go up to, say, RM3.00 per liter.
That time, people will ask whether u want to sell ur car to them

Should not be bullshit info, because he say the tax cert won't take a week to process and now they just know this is the reject reason. Let's see what official notice I receive from Honda Malaysia..

I also agree with u, Honda Japan cannot simply change the spec of the car, its like cheating customer, a big mistake that a company would do.
