Dude, mags and alloys, it's basically one word split up, Magnesium Alloy!!! Now those wheels are not magnesium for sure, as the cost a bomb, but we've come to call 'Wheels' mags, even when they don't contain Magnesium!!!
So basically it's a set of Aluminium Alloy wheels!!

Nice car by the way jathin!!!

It seems the design of Suzuki Swift is an exact copy of the BMW Mini Cooper. I wasn't knowing it till I saw it in a recent HBO movie.

Am I right or wrong?

Insane Devil · 27th June 2006, 16:56

wrong. there are quiet a many differences. firstly, this is bigger and more bulkier than the mini cooper, and the front end is not like the mini cooper. the semi circular kinda bonet.

Hemant_Joshi · 27th June 2006, 16:59

I also thought the same..
Swift more or less looks the Cars seen in the movie "Italian Job"..., though i dont know, which cars were used in the movies...

khanak · 27th June 2006, 17:22

I really like the design of the swift. nd yes it does look a lot like a mini cooper especially with the white top nd white mirrors. the one thing that i like a lot about the swift is that it doesnt really need a bodykit to look good. A swift with just 17" wheels nd tints looks really good

@ hemant italian job had mini's only, n ya the movie is great guys do watch it incase u havent.

HOTROD · 28th June 2006, 20:26

There are 3 swift s in chennai as far as i ve seen which look really awesome with the body kits.I enquired for my friends car and they said it would cost 9000Rs

200mph · 28th June 2006, 20:33

9k is like wow! Plz get the pics man ASAP!!!

@others,

guys dont even dare to compare the swift with the Mini Cooper. the coop is lower, smaller and well built. The Swift is not a "ditto" copy but i agree that it kinda resembles the cooper but to a small extent. the difference are, the front is completely different, the rear is kinda similar but the swift is taller. The similarity came because of the flat roof and wide body. I guess the designers of Swift did see the Italian Job movie while having their lunch break and hence got inspired

There are many ppl who tried to imitate the Cooper, like putting white roof and vinyl stripe at the bottom skirt part, but no one can even match the ultimate Cooper!!!
