The alloys would look killer in matte black. White is not suiting it all that much.
The headlight mod is interesting.

Thanks Veelubai . (your name sounds scary )
I need to collect the plates. They cost Rs1000 a pair. you can get it from Emperor,Cochin.

Anyway I have come online to report my mileage .

For driving 372.9 Km I used up petrol worth 1813.89 . So that corresponds to 4.86 Rupees/Km . And since am filling Speed petrol which comes to 50.33 a litre , am getting a mileage of 10.355

Considering that I have been quite hard on revs at times , its an amazing mileage . And I did touch an indicated 170+ thrice.

170+. How was your experience with cedia at that speed. I would be nervous if I see anything beyond 140 in Indian roads.

Its rock stable at 170+ i managed a 210( dont wanna repeat it too often though) in Bangalore, along Hyderabad road on a quite morning. The car was rock stable. No shuddering wat so ever.

Happy to hear that the car is solid at speeds in excess of 170+ (even 210).

I now need to plan a trip to pune express way to try the speeds

Dear visu, does there have to be another reason?

One thing I've noticed is that the car reaches top speed way faster on normal asphalted roads than fully concrete roads like the Pune Expressway. Probably has got to do with friction.
