| Best car for 6-7 L ? Gurus, First of all, Thank you for all those welcome messages! link you guys made me feel home. really! Now, one of the reasons i was searching frantically for an auto forum was that i was thinking of upgrading from my Maruti 800, which i bought in a hurry 2years back. Since i cannot start a thread in the "What Car" section (me being a newbie), i guess i will have to ask my questions here. ..So i have this 2 year old maruti that i want to sell off, and buy a bigger & better car. 6 to 7L is my budget - can be stretched a bit, but not much. Like any regular IT guy, i looked at Ikon, I looked at Accent. For some reason, i am not able to like Ikon.... Accent...well...looks too plain to me So i was collecting brochures, going thru the specs etc, and another one emerged: Baleno! Looks really bad, and absolutely no snob value that you would expect from a 3 box car...but it looked really VFM to me, and last few days study of articles in this forum confirms my findings. Fusion ? ...dont know, some say over priced..and i really dont know what Ford will do with it if they cannot sell it much..a price cut six months down the line would make buyers look like fools...but still i have it my list, since i like the looks. then one of my cousins tells me that he can get a good used City CVT if I can wait...but used cars = maintenance issues ? gurus, i am confused.. Like anyone else, I am looking for a balance of Driving Experience, FE, Resale, Comfort, VFM.. I can make compromises, but Less maintenance worries and VFM are top priorities for me. Looks is important for my wife though  I drive 25km daily. help me. thank you all. GS300 (How I wish I could buy that Lexus GS300 again! ) |
