Can you post a pic of complete front as i want to see how the fog lamps gel with the look of the car.
I was told fog lamps are for 13k. So 9k is still an acceptable price.

Skyfire2892 had replied to me earlier stating he paid approx 1200 for 3 d mats from a local dealer . I didn't check for mats outside since I had paid Honda upfront.

All the owners of Amaze I wanted to know about the fit and finish of the product anyone experiencing any rattling or niggles how are interiors holding up
If anyone has completed 1st service how is the performance after service ?

With the Ecosport dream out in the drain, I drove the Amaze iDtech the day before.
Its a good family car. At around 5:30 pm, I took the car onto the NICE road and reached somewhere between 140-145 for a good half minute before slowing down for slow moving trucks. As mentioned earlier, there is no cutoff after 140. May be it is after 145 or so. Wish i had a few more kilometers of empty road to confirm that. It reached 140 without a sweat and it had enough juice to go beyond.

The brakes are good at that speed too. steering gets a bit heavy at speeds. Ride quality is decent and suits the car.

What i was really impressed by is that the design of the lower part of the dash is such that a six footer like me doesn't end up hitting my knees. The leg space in the front is awesome. When front passenger seat is moved totally back, i can fully stretch my legs in the front and there is still decent leg space when i sit in the back.

Overall i liked the car and is definitely in my list of sub 10L sedan.

Regards,
Krishna.

I don't think they'll provide switch for fog lights.
It would be integrated in headlamps stalk.

No rattles till now don't expect any change after first or second service they are mere checkup and body wash.
