Freebies : None
Discounts : 5k consumer offer, 10k Exchange bonus, 2.5k Corporate offer

Edit- This is a replacement for my Dad's 16 year old Swift Lxi

Finally got the car last week after a 3.5 months wait. In the mean time the prices had increased and I ended up paying some 20k more than what was quoted in the earlier post.
Got a 10k discount probably because the new WagonR will be launched next month and 10k exchange bonus.
Knowing how crooked these showrooms are, they made money on the accessories which actually costs around 1/3rd the price outside.

Make: Renault
Model: Kiger

Dealer: Renault Yelahanka, Bangalore
On road price before discounts: Rs. 12,34,300 (with extended warranty)

After driving everyone up the proverbial wall over the past few months (my family, friends, dealerships around the city and whoever chose to listen to my stressed out rants and whatnot), I have decided to go with i20 N Line iMT N6.

My heart somehow convinced my head that it is worth stretching a few lakhs above my budget. My head has already bookmarked the conversation for the inevitable "I told you so" reference that awaits in the future.

Make: Hyundai
Model: i20 N-Line iMT
Variant: N6
Powertrain: 1.0 L Turbo, iMT
Colour: Grey monotone (the car deserves a better red shade and would have gone for it if it had been available)
Booking date: 14th February 2022
Expected delivery: Still waiting
Dealer: Kun Hyundai, OMR, Chennnai
On road price before discounts: Rs. 11.43L
Discount: NA
Freebies: NA
Accessories: Yet to decide.

Booked Ertiga CNG today and giving my WagonR CNG (O) 2019 driven 25k Kms in exchange.
Exchange value offered 4.70L had purchased for 5.50 in 2019. Should I ask for more?

Make: Maruti Suzuki
Model: Ertiga
Variant: VXI
Powertrain: 1.5L Petrol + CNG
Colour: Magma Grey
Pricing: 11.20L (Including Extended warranty)
Waiting: 3 Months (Dealer is insisting to purchase accessories amounting to at least 25k to receive delivery early)
Dealer: Maruti Suzuki Sai Service Kondwa Pune
Discount: 0
Exchange Bonus: 0

After sitting on the fence for months with a BMW 330i in mind, I finally switched and booked a Mercedes GLA 220d 4 Matic.

Make: Mercedes Benz
Model: GLA
Variant: 220D 4 MATIC
Powertrain: 2L turbo diesel
Colour: Polar White
Pricing: 55-56L (approx) inc a corporate discount of 2L
Waiting: 3-4 Months
Dealer: VST Titanium motors

The car was very nimble, spacious and practical, fast and fun to drive in city and highway. Was blown away by the MBUX which was far superior to the iDrive 7.

We found that the new sales model at Mercedes to be far more transparent and customer friendly than how luxury car dealerships work.
Insurance quotes direct from Mercedes were at least 65% cheaper than what dealers at BMW and Audi quoted for similar ex-showroom value cars and there was no extra for 3rd year warranty or handling charges.
And the 8 year warranty on drivetrain and gearbox gives a lot more confidence in the product.

Now the wait starts!

Booked a replacement for the ageing Honda Amaze.

Make: Kia
Model: Carens
Variant: Prestige
Powertrain: 1.5
Colour: Gravity Gray
Waiting: 12-14 Weeks
On road price : Not available yet (expect ~11.8L)

This will be a car primarily driven by my dad.
No need for a 7 seater. Looked at all options in the 12-16 range, Carens' price along with the standard safety suite sealed the deal.

Congratulations and wish you many happy miles!
Did you take insurance from the dealer or from outside?

Thanks!
I had got the insurance quote from outside which was much cheaper than the dealer's quote. On the delivery day, the dealership agreed to match the outside quote. So, I got the insurance from the dealer eventually and at a lower price.
