oh bro.. i wish u good luck... u was waiting so many month already, and now giving u such problem..

yes.. already 6 months waiting... everyday think of Insight... going to crazy

chill bro....i think you can bug you SA for more free gifts..hehehhe!

so dude... they didt ask you to pay more rite?

ya.. he told me his boss will free me windscreen insurance coverage for 1 year..

wa.. meaning u book on dec/jan?

how come

Yes. booking was made on 5th Dec 2010 (during KLIM)

Actually, I don't buy this as well....

1) The size of the batteries, do they physically fit each other?
2) If assuming that it does fit, does it function better/poorer? Civic Hybrid 1st gen's battery or are we talking 2nd gen Civic Hybrid??
3) Assuming it's all true, it fits, and functions better, and QA Honda releases it.
4) Why would the Msian customs block it??

Is Sanyo plant affected by the earthquake/tsunami?

Or Honda scalvaging (recycling) old Civic battery pack and modify it for Insight use? To some this is big hoo haa or a no no. Well if this is real, I dont see any problems actually because both uses same NiMH cells ..just taking out the new cells from the Civic battery pack (since Civic Hybrid already EOL) and repack into Insights IMA battery pack. After all ...that's what GREEN is all about. As long as 5 years warranty is valid...I think shouldn't be any problem.

Save the Earth!

Hmmmm, if let say our battery suppose to last up to 10 years then after all the repacking and only 5 years warranty given. That's mean we have been cheated and taken advantages to accept refurbished battery just like 3rd world country.

Give HM a call to further clarify. PLEASE.

I think you got it wrong by using the word refurbished. Repacking the "new cells" has no impact on service life. Perhaps saying it this way is easier to understand, just changing the container. Anyway all these are just our speculation. No official words hence guys reading this please don't take it too seriously.

Now waiting official letter from H.M and discuss with SA what to do... I think will state deliver date in the letter..


Yes. I will call H.M when receive their letter...

Refurbish mean Recondition so I believe is the correct term if let say they repack the new cells on an old battery/PCB. As wat u mention, it's just our assumption. No need to take it too serious.

Dun get refunds... This is a good car fyi. If u refunds means ur sa earn anothet rm1800 due to new price for insight. Since u already wait for 6month, y dun u jus wait ya?

Not worth to give up now since u have waited for so long.

Call HM for proper explanation, dun trust what SA said. Check whether u have any requisition number. Something not right to have such a long delay, so more you booked it before the launching.

Just call HM and make some noises there...it works everytime...furthermore, what they really care is about US---> CUSTOMERS....just give them a small piece of your mind....hehe!

yea.. i will not give up... unless there is another CBU car below 100k, cheaper road tax, better FC & Spec. Any?

GOT! scale models 1:18. MADE IN JAPAN! hehehe! my advise is to wait la...no point giving up now...I'm a very proud owner...80% City, 20% highway (if only LDP is considered a highway. otherwise 100% City). still able to get 19.5km/l....WHY NOT?? XD All the Best yo!

Me too ...like it so much that I clean/wipe her every morning !! Seriously love this car. The design and shape is just splendid. Today Mr Postman just delivered my 5050SMD LED bulbs ..tonight gonna tweak her again.
