New Honda Accord can be classified in 13.5 - 17 lacs category as Base Variant is priced at just under 17 Lacs Ex- Showroom. The next category can have other cars like Camry and Passat.

You wont even get a stripped down Boxter for that price, the Cayman is priced way above !

I think the poll needs to be restructured, at least the last two .. its too broad and over lapping segments... F:23-35 should be one and G:35-50 another

A: 2-6 Lacs = GETZ+FABIA
B: 6-9.5 lacs = SX4
C: 9.5-13.5 Lacs = CIVIC
D: 13.5-17 Lacs = ACCORD
E: 17-23 Lacs = CAMRY
F: 23-45 Lacs = BMW 5 SERIES

A: 2-6 Lacs - Bolero
B: 6-9.5 Lacs - Cedia
C: 9.5-13.5 Lacs - Civic
D: 13.5 - 17 Lacs - Ford Endeavour

17-45 lacs - None. Seriously None. 23 lacs is nearly 60,000 dollars. For that money, you get beautiful Jaguars, Alfas, Mustangs, etc. in other places. In India, you get the same old boring Camries, C/3/A4s.

I understand I'm making an arbitrary stop at 17 lacs, but that's the price point I think where you need to start getting really good looking cars.

I think the poll should be added to this thread as this won't let us judge the final outcome of the "Best Looker"

MODS:"Can we have a poll for this thread please"
