I second that.
I will list out strong negatives against Getz.
- The getz is going to be discontinued soon
- No safety features like ABS & Airbags
- It doesn't have any of the modern features (Automatic climate control, Multi-Information display, steering controls, Blue & me)

If interior quality, fast engine are really high on your mind, then better check out the new I20 CRDI. Be prepared to shell out a 75k premium (atleast) over punto, though.

In the end, its upto you to decide if you want to be seen in a hot new car like Punto/I20 or an old horse!

P.S: And as for Dzire, thats not a car , thats a frankenstein monster. (Sorry Dzire owners, strictly my opinion)

Punto is a latest car, excels in all departments, Looks, handling, Safety (no ABS in getz, no airbags in getz), features.
See if you can give away safety, features, better stability and handling and a new car for just the engine power. Its your choice. I will pick up Punto, Getz is at the end of production very soon, i 20 has good interiors, Getz doesnt has average interiors and Punto bad bad.
