You are absolutely right. I used to do this on the Ramamurthi nagar ORR. It is real fun.
Cedia sticks to the road so well and that boosts confidence. My Michelin PP2 is giving me better grip for sure.
Enjoy your driving dude.

Santosh,
This color looks a bit different than my French Claret.. Is this the same color or Mitsubishi have changed the shade a little bit to the red side..???

gods-envy · 28th June 2008, 12:28

Congrats on your new car Santhosh! RED the color of passion anytime :P

Have fun & drive safe!

Santhosh, Very nice writeup mate. Congrats on the new purchase and enjoy your new ride.

Congrats on your Cedia Santhosh and its a very nice car and i certainly love Mitsu's for this except for their marketing in India . Its the color of passion for you and quite apt for the cedia. Have a good ride on a this.

snaronikar · 28th June 2008, 14:09

Congrats on your new buy. It looks stunning. Good choice of colour too. Do take her for long trips and she rocks.

Drive safe.

sanjayatarizona · 28th June 2008, 14:20

Congrats on the terrific buy Santosh. IMO a rear spoiler would up the looks quite a bit.

Welcome to the Cedia Club!

You will surely enjoy cornering and will rip her at every possible opportunity. While returning from work daily, I get to take on one such corner at Koramangala Inner ring road and its a great feeling to drive at 80km/h while being in the lane all the time. Of course, only when there is not much traffic.

If you are planning to take her to the highways, you should consider upgrading your stock headlights to 90/100w.

Very pretty..some pictures of the interiors pl..they have done some lovely wooden panelling

VMG · 30th June 2008, 11:01

Welcome to Cedia club.
Congratulations!
Cedia is a great car; Happy and safe driving.

Lalvaz · 30th June 2008, 11:21

Congratulations Santhosh !!!

Must say, its probably the first time that someone has a Cedia Select as their first car. She looks awesome in red.

Have loads of fun and many years of safe driving with the "Lady in red".

Do post a detailed review once you've run her for a bit.

Welcome to the club my friend, so is it going to be a stock setup for your ICE or going in for upgrades?? I love the feel of the car specially on high speed turns where the grip just does give up even on the stock tyres that I am using. One of the best handling cars in india today at this price. Take care and enjoy the ride.
