It's a Palio, no it's a Getz, no it's a City, no it's a, it's a...

Great choice and best of luck.
Great discount, do you hold classes on Negotiation skills?

Good choice. You must be a very good driver to park your brand new car like that. I guess HE and H1 interiors are different?

The_Warrior · 11th June 2008, 11:03

Congratulations on your new buy buddy!!! Enjoy the ride and Drive Safe and regarding the parking next to the wall

with the fellow bhpians.

Congrats Jedi.

Looking at the narrow driveway, I would say that's a very RESPONSIBLE way of parking. I appreciate that.
That's how i park on my apartment driveway...and i get out of the passenger door.

Congrats Jedi! Corolla is undoubtly a great Car, only if it was priced sensibly in India!

But you got a whopping 1 lac discount! Good! Enjoy the ride!

Do get the alloys as well!

Sandeep_K_Ram · 11th June 2008, 11:36

Good buy mate ! But how did you manage to park so close to that wall !!! ??!!

...careful now ..

Would suggest you go for good alloys too..

neoonwheels · 11th June 2008, 12:21

The car is badly shouting for alloys and wider rubber...

benbsb29 · 11th June 2008, 12:57

Jedi, congrats on the Corolla. While many criticize the car on its looks, i feel it to be quite decent, and not overdone. The alloys which came on earlier Corollas looked really good, and would be great if you could procure them for your car.

ravikn · 11th June 2008, 13:05

Congrats Jedi on your new car. A great choice indeed

punterccrx8s · 11th June 2008, 13:12

congrats jedi.Love the colour and the car.But why did you even consider swift and getz while your budget was in the range of a corolla.

and the rims on the car is unique.

Shakensoul · 11th June 2008, 13:42

Congrats on your new car, always loved the corolla.

I guess the car is parked very close to the wall for a reason, to allow other cars to pass through the narrow lane. I also park my car close to the wall to avoid being scratched by other cars. Better safe than sorry.

stable rock · 11th June 2008, 14:13

congrats jedi.Corolla is the best among all the other cars you considered.Happy motoring.Please consider alloys for the exterior looks.

gods-envy · 11th June 2008, 14:13
