and anyway i prefer a diesel car with 1600 cc and averaging about 16 kmpl spacious and easy to maintain, something like a swift with a fiat engine

i will go for german cars since they have a celebrated automotive culture & they seem to be the most passionate about their cars.

Jap engines for me. Small, reliable and fast too.

rapideffect · 28th December 2005, 10:43

Italian beauties for me.

goldie_malhotra · 28th December 2005, 13:05

German If I had to drive one and could afford it

Japanese If I wanted best of all worlds at an affordable price
Korean for that VFM and low initial, running and spare costs
American If I had to hire a stylish car for that long weekend drive
French If I was living in france and had no other choice

Not for me. I still think that the Peugot and Citreon are the most beautiful hatchbacks/sedans in the world.

Lots of Money: Ferrari.
Little Less than lots of Money: BMW 7 series
HMMMM Got to stop dreaming.
Bombay Roads, Bombay fuel prices. I am happy with My Zen.
Jap Cars for Indian conditions

Given the criteria laid out, this is a straight shoot-out between the Japanese and the Koreans (Hyundai). I vote for Hyundai, given my own favourable experience. I am truly impressed with the ruggedness, reliability and maneuverability of even my old-generation Santro. Plus fuel economy and cost of spares are OK too. I think it is only a question of time before Hyundai gets ahead of the Japs and everybody else under Indian conditions -- especially if the 75 BHP diesel Santro hits the market in 2007 as planned.
