Re: Car for Super Tall Men Thank you guys for the guidance. This involved bit of a stretch, but I went for the Creta. Booked of 1.6 SX Diesel Polar white from Shreenath Hyundai Chembur.
Factors which turned my decision in favor of Creta
1.Advise from Team BHP. Performance of 1.6 is enticing
2.Wife liked Creta more as she felt that its more suited for my physique
3.Response from Honda dealer ship - response from Arya and Hall mark was cold. While Harsha from Shreenath was maintaining a strong follow up. I believe owning a car has 2 parts - 10% buying experience and 90% ownership experience. Buying experience in Shreenath has been good so far, I am hoping it will continue to great and chances of it giving me a good ownership experience seems to be bright.
Choice of Model:
I wish could have stretched more for accommodating SX(O) Executive for its additional safety features such as curtain/Side bags, VSC and ESC! Breaking issues in creta is a bit worrying, but considering that I have been driving a Scorpio for past 8 years I think I should be able to manage. Did not choose the S variant as it did not have many of the essential features – Touch Screen ICE, projector lamps etc.
Choice of Color:
While I wanted a black color, Harsha converted me to white stating that the moving models in Mumbai is White and Silver; probably because it cools better during summer. and slight blemishes are not easily visible. Went for white as delivery can be faster, and hoping that when the time comes it will give me a better resale value as its a fast moving color. |
