FIAT Grande Punto Specs: Punt(o)ing around town

15" wheels are more than enough on a hatchback.
Even Fiesta, NHC came with 14" wheels only!

From what i saw in the pics, the wheel was looking really small in that large wheel well and was looking out place. Anyways better to see the car in person.

Eagerly awaiting review to check what Zigwheels reported about FE & 0-100 kms. IMO, thats the only concern else Fiat has got a winner here

Wow! Looking at the response to this thread, wonder what will happen when GTO releases his review?!
One request to GTO, please dont get carried away by the mass hysteria seen on this thread and we are hoping for a well balanced review (which I'm sure he will!)

Arre baba, it was said that its raining Lineas on the forum. What the hell will it be with the Punto? An intergalactic hailstorm?

When i spoke to hte lady there, she said they still do not have the vehicle and will be displayed only by tomorrow evening. I asked if it is possible to see the car in their garage or where ever they have but they do not have.

Update me if you are able to see or tell me what time you'll be heading there. Else mysore road is an option
