Lolz....what a thread title....

now my reaction...


aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa WHAT A CAR *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/43.gif

My dad said "We will buy this car, as this will easily fit in your bike's garage" *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/10.gif

Design wise, this car is a marvel. Perfectly suited for indian cities where parking is a problem. I mean just look at the UI, it looks so cool *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/4.gif. If I talk about lucknow then other then few roads on the outskirts u cannot drive at more then 30 KP/H in Lucknow roads due to traffic & small roads/allies. This car is perfectly suited...

Now, what I need in this car or what I would like to buy after market...

1) A Sony Ericsson phone dock which I can connect to he car speakers & play music. If it has an inbuilt Media device then I wish it has a USB port.

2) I hope the seats can lean backward like a bed....you know, this will help in "installing vista" *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/9.gif

3) Black colour glasses...a must in summer days

4) Not exectly a car guy but still.....donno what else I can ask for.

So, what part of this car has something to do with iPhone?
no flames for the iphone ... the iphone is considered as the epitome of innovation etc ... but this is a true marvel worthy of more accolades than the iPhone, purely in terms of technological innovation ;) and if u read my thread title twice that is what it says and implies
 

s18000rpm

ಠ_ಠ
the car IS good, good work by designers (dunno who they are , maybe I.D.E.A again:p).



when cars like Indica , Sumo suffer from Quality & technical issues, just hope this car doesnt:p

look at that A-Pillar, ROFL, i guess the chassis is made from tubular frames:D

i know...but if security is a concern then only...

the exterior should be metal & interior can be made out of replaceable plastic. It's good actually, metal takes more time to repair while plasitc can be changed easily

yea it ll. But as carbon fiber is lighter and more durable than steel, the mileage ll increase and operating costs ll decrease.

The car is also rear engined which is also a first for an indian car. The only thing I don't like about the car is the front end. The rest of the design is cute and attractive while the front is bland and lacks creativity. The headlights look huge and a small slit like grille would've looked great on the car.

I also agree with naveen. After this car hits Mumbai streets, we'll have flyovers for flyovers. Everyone and their dog will buy this car. The already horrible traffic will get even worse.
