Thats is fine yaar. I just felt that why bring another car in the poll. Otherwise I know how is petra. In fact I was also considering Petra but dropped the idea after getting the feedback about FIAT here.

Few weeks ago, my friend (who drives NHC GXI - a very enthusiastic driver) and I headed towards Mysore. We cruised for about an hour and stopped for some grub.

As soon as we hit the road again, we heard a loud noise, a black thing roared by. On second glancing, it was a modded Baleno ! Noise was so loud that it seemed like the Baleno driver transplanted his IC engine with a Jet engine !!!

Other motorists were scared by the noise and gave way for Baleno. He was doing decent speeds, in the range of 120s. We decide to checkout the top speed of Baleno. He saw us coming and increased his speed. We were doing in excess of 140s, then 160s. We waited for a open stretch and then tried to overtake him. Surprisingly, Baleno didn't do higher. We went past, and never saw or never heard again !!

Its known that NHC is cheaper to maintain. The point I am making is NHC is also quite a capable performer. I want the voters to consider this fact while voting in this poll.

lol. Diabloo, the baleno can easily cross 160kmph and leave the City behind. Perhaps the car had a problem or was just show with a very amateur driver.

But that seriously is a very flawed comparison.

Try that with another mildly modded Baleno like iceman's and he will probably have had lunch by the time you reach mysore and still waiting.

ps: this thread is 1.5years old with no more Baleno and no more NHC. What was the purpose in opening the thread I do not know.
