That car is pretty damn awesome.

 

Nice buy gaurav :hi2:

 

Thank you tinbin, we're leaving for a 3 hour drive to Vellore in another hour from now. Highway drive, perfect to see if the 0-100 time of 9.1 is possible (I doubt my Dad will let me drive fast though). And cruise control to check out.

nice car guarav!!! looks civic frm back + sx4 frm front. killer car :unsure:

 

 

Thanks, but you got it kinda wrong on both counts... It doesn't really have any of the civic's looks in it. But it looks pretty good, and you have to see it in person to actually appreciate it. More like they tried to mix a BMW's looks with a more Chevy-like front end lol...

 

I hate the SX4's looks.

 

Took it to 150kmph on the highway to Vellore. Damn, it accelerates well.

 

Edit: You made me sound like a fruit, its gAUrav btw :wub:

 

For your reference infinity:

 

SX4 (uggghhh) :

Look how they've copied the lines from the BMW and put on a typical Chevy front end. :wub:

Can you guys please stop posting for a couple of days?? Your posts arent gonna matter in the glory of gauravs purchase

 

 

Unless offcourse your name is tantrikbazzar

 

 

Aye, the tantrik will be getting something new and we'll all go green probably.

 

Btw, funny thing is you don't realise these petrol bunk attendants are sometimes quite knowledgeable about the gadgets on cars. Stopped at a HP bunk the day we bought the car and the way the diesel tank lid opens is you stand near it and just touch lightly on it and it flips open. It only needs the driver to have the key fob in his pocket within one metre (part of the PEPS system I guess). Damn, that peps is one awesome thing (yeah, we haven't owned too many BMWs and Mercs before :)).

 

SO the thing is when we stopped and I got out to go tell the guy how to open the lid, this fellow had already opened it and he was smiling wide. When I asked him how he knew he said "This is how they open on all those BMW cars sir, those also need petrol and diesel in them " Lol :)

 

I'm a big fan of all things that glow (musta been apparent from my LED 4x4x4 Cube project a month or so ago), so here are 2 more pictures of what I bought this week:

 

The door sill plate in the light:

When it gets dark and I open the door:

The audio system isn't audiophile grade but it is damn good, much much better than any stock audio system I've heard in any car priced less than 20-22 lakh.
