The car you will be driving in 10 years

supremeBaleno · 11th September 2007, 10:08

My Baleno, ofcourse, on weekends and for long drives (tbhp-meets

).

I would also get one real small car (2-seater or something for city/office commutes on weekdays). Though not the Tata 1-lakh car - a Jap one should do.

Perhaps a hybrid. But definitely not a big guzzler.

planet_rocker · 11th September 2007, 11:13

after 10 years - i will be driving my Padmini (on weekends) and my daily commute will be the Silver Arrow

or the best hatch in 2017 (in India) from the Fiat's stable.

mclaren1885 · 11th September 2007, 11:18

A 400 bhp Baleno and an R34 putting out in excess of 1000 bhp.

pawan · 11th September 2007, 11:23

i wish i could be driving a v8 in another 10 years.all fingers crossed.

veyron1 · 11th September 2007, 11:25

10 years? Realistically?

A 900 BHP RWD daily drive, that can be boosted to 2000 horses on nitromethane for the odd once-in-a-while races. All done up by me. It'll take me 10 years for the build anyways. And yes, a 400BHP Gixxer for the weekends.

If I were to dream, I'd be dreaming about driving a 1200 bhp electric Veyron that feeds off of hydrogen, and lasts 10,000 kms between refills whilst nuding the speedo needle to 430 kmph...

After 10 years, i see myself riding a bicycle on Delhi roads.

sbasak · 11th September 2007, 16:33

If everything goes normally, in 10 years time I shall become less crazy about cars!
Instead of a passion, car will become a means of transport for me. Because I shall have to have worry about many more things after 10 years

Most probably I would drive an automatic car (there should be plenty in India after 10 years) with some good comfort and bit upmarket image. The technical terms like FWD/RWD/ABS etc. will become mostly irrelevant to me by then!

GTO · 11th September 2007, 17:04

My Jeep

. And a Porsche.

autopsyche · 11th September 2007, 17:18

fb1 · 11th September 2007, 17:40

Atleast a BMW 3 series and a yamaha R6.

spadival · 11th September 2007, 20:43

It will be either a Jag S-Type or an Alfa 1XX or Mitsubishi Evo 10 (I know it will be old then.. Dont think I can afford an Evo 20 even then

)

hmmm... Maybe all of the above. Certainly not the Baleno, it will be leading a peacfull retired life
