Hi Team BHP,
I'm a new member here and a newbie (of sorts) to cars. I've been in Bangalore spending most of my time on geeky things such as writing software and playing XBox 360 games... things changed recently when I happened to rent a regular rental car in the US (California area). It was a V6 engine - Pontiac G6. The sheer rush of stomping the gas pedal changed me from inside out - I drove around like crazy and traveled without a purpose. I did 1100 miles in 13 days and at the end of it all came back to India with the resolve to buy a car when I get back.
What started out as a search for a 'good family car' ended up in the need to by an SX4. I stumbled upon this site through a friend and I've totally loved the way you guys are doing stuff - from writing super useful reviews to posting your 'hacks' and exploits. I LOVE THIS PLACE!
I'm about to close on an SX4 (ZXi) deal and expect to be driving around India by next week or so (and somehow still manage to stay employed as I start making use of long weekends to explore our beautiful country

)
I look forward to not only sharing my exploits with you guys here but also hear your expert opinions as I take baby steps towards becoming a responsible car owner
