Accent - overall a good car in terms of performance....problem lies in its build..just isnt sturdy enuff....u could probably put dents in the just by punching it...
Indigo - defenitely worth a look esp for its pricing....however performance at high speeds are bad. Try breaking hard at 100KM and the car skids almost ending up sideways...
CORSA - agreed, best suspension absolutely no road noise (I know this after driving the IKON, ACCENT and the INDIGO). Power is a problem (esp with the AC on!!) I still went for this one just because its more stable than the rest. Also I did a cool 150 km/hr when I went to Chennai from Bangalore...not bad eh... ANd since we are saying the 6Lakhs rage then I am including the road tax as well (cos this is a whopping amount in Bangalore!!) hence I havent compared the IKON 1.6 and above cos they are all above 6.6. Dont even think ford FLAIR..geez who would wanna pay 5.5 lacs for a vehicle which has 72 BHP!!!
HONDA CITY - The new looks are debatable. However the car itself is quite amazing. Autocar India says that the car gives 26KM/LITRE (Holy S**T!!!) but after doing some talkin more realistic is around 17-19 which is still more than any car in this segment. And its become more more affordable as well. Plus it comes with all the HONDA features such a huge iteriors, safety and stability. Still 8 lacs...so think abt it...
I personally will reccomend waitin for a bit as there are some new players entering the market. BMW (yes BMW) are setting up a plant in Gujarat, NISSAN has just entered the SUV market. And talkin of SUV's...how abt the Hyundai Terracan!!...Its is amazing people...check it out!!....I cant wait to get my hands on a 'B'MER (thats a BMW tw). Drive one of those and u dont wanna drive anything else..
