lets say you get the chip for $600 (rs 30K)
add another 50K for the body kit
30K for the seats
and 40K for a stereo....
= 1,50K instead of 3,50K pricing between the Rider and the RS? so u save say 2,00K.
Q: who can do this? I dont know any qualified garages that I would trust to do this. |
Navin, that would pure academics... accepted that very few, if none can do the work, but rather than spend an extra 3.75 lakhs on that piece of extra kit i'd rather save it for the day when someone can really do that kinda work.
Its not about what Skoda is offering. Its the price. And at 15 lakhs plus, you are taking on the mighty Accord which does 3000 units a year and has completely whitewashed its competition. Who'd wanna put that kinda money on a car that is smaller and probably doesn't have the kind of snob value that the Accord commands. Not many.
Hell at 15 lakhs plus i get a car that develops 143 horses, has a beautiful chassis, has ABS, TC and the works and is big on the inside as well. That 150 horses on the Skoda just becomes a pure academic value.
