I know Baba, but we were using it to launch the new CS components and we wanted to show stuff from JBL that could be bought off the shelf. Thats why we installed 4 CS sealerd boxes inside, because it's CS series (we dont sell CS woofer drivers), because it's no fuss, a customer can buy it off a shelf. Thanks for the compliments, the car is not a demo car, it's just pure bloody fun

Sheer Masti.

Sam Kapasi · 10th November 2006, 01:25

Yes yes, sennen made the speaker enclosure which is fit in the boot. He did it really well and it fit like a glove.

Its kinda late, VERY late, but why not JBL Jalwa if you want a name thats got something to do with Fire?

I still think it should have a desi name, but well its a bit late in the day - okay night

Oh HELL no! The perfect song for this would be firestarter by Prodigy! The song goes SO well with the car's name!

Having a car named firestarter, and playing we didn't start the fire would make the whole idea pretty redundant me thinks!

Godspeed,

Alok
