Any issues so far?

Just not sure about the battery thingy... Seems like it's an "added risk" although it has its benefits.

Sounds like a wiring grounding problem there, will take the tech some time to trace which area is causing the problem, sometimes it could be due to damaged wires or even faulty electrical components in the car that cause the short circuit. Usually computers and in your case ECU is most sensitive to short circuit.

I'm very sure if u go public, HM will suddenly treat u as a VVIP..lol, they should not treat this as a trivial matter considering Their stiff competition with Prius C

Especially when there are potential buyers like me who are still wondering if it's "risky" to get a "high tech" Honda... smile.gif

Those who got this car recently..can i ask what other models you looked at?  Was it just the Prius C. Did any impress you?

I haven't made my choice yet but I have looked at Prius c and Insight so far. Insight is out as I feel Jazz is more spacious and fun to drive. Besides, I dont like the "bar" in the middle ( in Insight ) when I look at its rear mirror. Prius c is mainly just because of its keyless feature and HSD tech, not really a fun drive. So it's either Prius c or Jazz Hybrid.

Later may also look at Ford Fiesta and the New City as the gasoline alternatives. Any other cars I should consider too? smile.gif

Exactly my thoughts!!!!

Honda Insight felt rough to drive and i did not like the bar at the back!
Honda Jazz i enjoyed the drive and interior.  On second test drive i felt like a huge amount of space overhead and recall that this is a car hugely popular with the over 65's in europe!!!  Put me off a little after trying lots of cars
Prius C i enjoyed and i even like the simple console at the front.  I especially like the keyless entry and the optional GPS/DVD but have to wait at least 3-4 months!!!

Ford fiesta..like the shape and colours. The bucket seats feel good and it has a nice front console. Apart from that it was a nice drive (maybe a bit noisy compared to others). At around RM 85,000 it is a fair bit cheaper than the Hybrids mentioned. The test drive unit had a terrific GPS unit. Not sure if this is optional or not.

Confused? I am. The more i test drive the more confused i get!!! What about resale value if you resell in like 3-5 yrs?
*
Car features and price apart, I see T salesman not keen on selling the Prius c even if stock is available after customer cancels order. Somehow I feel they had "too much" business or just not really good salespeople. That's partially why don't like T right away (somehow I feel the same for P2) although HSD is said to be different.

Resale value could be lower as battery lifespan is unpredictable and warranty is over in 3 to 5 years. Depends on car condition and buyer too? smile.gif

Eh... but my case is different. There was a canceled Prius c standing by. The salesman said he will reconfirm with his boss and it took him a week to get back to me... (after I sms him...) Haha...

Added on June 4, 2012, 8:49 pmWhy is Insight's maintenance seems to be higher than the Jazz? I see that it's different at 40k.

Yep, it does ...

If you goto the Jazz 1.5 vtec section in the Honda website under accessories, you will see the same Modulo spoiler being offered as original accessories.. smile.gif

I was told there is a look alike. The original Modulo one is selling at RM780. How much is the look alike one?

Hmm... It doesn't say Modulo, but just Honda original accessory.
