Just got my insight today after cancelling my fiesta 2 weeks ago. Guess I was too lazy to wait another 1 month for my fiesta (3 months "recomended" waiting time) back then.

I now somewhat understand the jerking issue you guys been talking about. Got stuck in a jam today with repeating stop go traffic - with the engine cutting off every now and then. Did not notice this since the test drive's traffic condition was so smooth.

No regrets though. I never expected a drivers car when I picked Insight. Else I'll just hijack my brother's Golf GTi and smoke some civics.

y u so hate civic?? they smoke you while u drive insight??

how much?

nice.... Sharp Plasmacluster!!!

Well, I know Golf GTi cant smoke Evos, Porsche, Ferarris or even some Wiralution. No choice la but to smoke some Civics or maybe STOCK Civic Type Rs. I have always wanted to rev till 8K rpm in neutral then shift to D, but not on my own car. Do you think those showrooms allows us to do that?

Met with a minor accident yesterday, guy was double parking and I was passing through his car, and he simply opened his door without looking if any cars was passing by.. bang... hit my insight, dented my back door and minor scratches.. there goes her virginity after just 4 mths..

Asked Honda Workshop for a quote, told me RM585 for paint of whole door and knockjob, plus need to leave the car for 2-3 days. Screw it...
So off I went to fix the minor paintjob and dent repair today at Bdr Sri Damansara.

Right after the accident:


Getting tampal'd:


Into the operation room!:


Surgeon and Asst Surgeon examining and repairing:


All done! (this picture isn't really clear, as its in the spray room with poor lighting, will post one later on in bright sunlight)


The paints used, according to the surgeons, they are ICI paints, just the cans are different coz they mixed the color and poured into these:


Job was done in 6 hours, 12 noon ordered paint, finished 6pm.
Was pretty worried bout the color match, but luckily they really MATCH! and it does give the pearly glow too!
Told the surgeon I wont pay if it doesn't match, he said no problems lol.
Damage: RM190 (all in)
Imo, really excellent job, would recommend to any of you guys who needs his service. And most importantly, price is right!

Do PM me if you need instructions to the shop
