i just went to the showroom and the salesman say blue color is  no more in production?

did he con me or what?
*
haha. i think it is because the demand is low?

i believe 80% of people picked white color, then follow by black then maybe silver and blue?

isit.. hmm SA told me not more than 4gb zzz and even told me ipod cant work.. damn.. cannot trust

frankly speaker, not only SA, but also salesperson at retail shop etc.

to me they are rather useless for getting information from them. a lot of them know nuts about the product, what they try to do is only to push you to buy the product and they get the commission that's all.

that's why i would rather do my own research to understand the product.

Today my door visor driver side fly off just like that after 3 month use. Its happen when i drive around 110km/h at highway....damn!

Its seem the seller use cheap kind of double tape...feel soo rugi since only one part of the visor went missing.

Need to see back the seller ... (most of u guys know him.. quite famous in this forum).
*
third party installed at outside? they just use the tape to stick it i believed.

last time on my NHC i installed the visor at honda sc, they use screw type which is 100% secured.

If you want to buy, don't put FC as the main reasons for it. At your 95% city, start and stop.... you FC will be more around 18km/l, + your low milleage to start in the first place, ur FC savings vs a 'normal' car is more like 20, 30 bucks per month.

And then you need to offset the much higher car maintenance... higher than accord at some major service point iirc
And ultimately, the battery replacement topic will come up also....
*
yeah, in terms of FC, my insight FC is definitely better than my city, for same distance traveled daily, i only need to pump petrol every 2 weeks while my city i need to pump every 1.5 week.

it is definitely better in FC, but dun expect too much. in the end with the free tax exemption from our gahment. it is still a worthwhile buying car especially it is CBU.

i bought it just because i like the look. thumbup.gif

Joining in da club... Finally collected my Pearl White Insight 3 days back after about 3 weeks waiting. I choose to have all seats and door trim to be leather because I will have kids in the car climbing up and down, so earsier for cleaning. Did my security film tinting at Raytech.

Mileage just went past 1,000km because went for outstation work trip with it right away. One full tank of petrol (I pump right before entering highway) just nicely enough for me to drive from Puchong to Penang island and back with highway speed between 110 to 120km/h. Service center no slot for me today so can only do the 1k service next Monday. By then, I guess my mileage would be close to 1.5k.

Tomorrow morning going for Mugen sideskirt and spoiler installation. Will post feedback or pic once done.

HM mentioned must follow their predefined service intervals in order for the car warranty to be valid. just wonder how much extra km we can drag extra before they consider as voiding warranty, 1k? My first service was done at 2k instead of 1k as i had drove the car outstation to kedah right after collection. i am going to hit 5k and due for first service about 3 weeks from the day i collected the car. looks like i need to service the car about once a month if follow the 5k interval.

i used to use fully synthetic oil in my previous car and service every 10k. i do not think HM will honour the warranty if i do the same. anyway, will try to ask the SC when i go there for the 5k service soon.
*
i think depends on which sc u go. for me i did my 3rd service two weeks (at least more than 10 days after exact 6 mths), when i called them up to make the appt, i told them i got no time so can only go at that time, the lady who answered call said need to check with the service dept for approval and called me back on the outcome. Obviously it has no problem for me to get it approved tongue.gif

I think the first three services due to the fact they are FREE. so the sc maybe stricter on this. After that, i believe, if you drag a bit should be ok.

ok, i scratched the whole of my car today because i sent my car for a snow car wash. man, the swirling and line marks are obvious. what kind of cloth are they using, abbrasive?? may i know how can i eliminate the scratches? any certain products, or do i need to polish my car??? its only 2 months old.
*
can try this

user posted image

if the scratch is not deep, use this definitely can remove. I had tried this product before and still owned it.
but since your whole car was scratched now, it will be easier to do polishing instead. but probably you can wait for few more mths before you do it.

seriously for my last car i did do the snow wash outside, i would say i will nvr go back for my insight. although snow wash is fast and clean. but u can easily see the spider web scratch (not obvious, but when step closer to the car under sun, you can definitely see them).

my insight going to 7 mths already. car paint is still new and no major scratches. self wash once per two weeks.

Did he had to install anything ? Did he show you how to activate it ? I also wanna contact Cobra to enable the beep sound
*
no he nvr showed me. he just told me he activated that. because my alarm got problem which sometimes alarm is not activated even lock with the remote.

so today he is troubleshooting for me, so to allow me to know if my alarm is activated (working), he enabled it for me.

besides, now by default, if door is not locked probably, also got 3 peeps.
