Hi! Im Nikhil from GM

nikhil3456 · 5th January 2007, 17:43

Hey guys n gals!

Finally a member of a forum which talks my language

Im a automotive design engineer currently working with General Motors at Bangalore. I help in designing the interiors of cars such that they are structurally strong and at the same time safe for the occupants.. everything else about my job is confidential!

I dont think mentioning that I am crazy about cars is necessary!
I love driving and am I strive everyday to be a better driver!!
Formula 1 is one thing I try n keep myself updated on a daily basis..

N let me assure you that none of posts will have any bias towards GM, nor is GM in anyway backing me to support them over here!!

Hey nikhi3456, welcome to the forum, & thank you for your candour.

Hopefully you'll be able to present some watered down feedback to GM from this site - they would do well to take some advice from a bunch of completely nutter auto enthusiasts.

Equus · 5th January 2007, 22:01

Welcome aboard!! Which car do you own?

nikhil3456 · 5th January 2007, 22:09

Hey Equus!

I own a 8.5 yr old Maruti Zen
Planning to upgrade to one of the GM models now..
