my favorite buy

Honda civic, a world winner so to speak. Its competition the world over is the corolla, which unfortunately we haven't yet put through the paces, but the Honda has let the cat among the pigeons, and their Japanese competitor scrambling for shelter. I know that you have already been smitten by her looks, and waiting to drive one, perhaps drive one home! I've dwell-ed on the drive I had in Delhi for a few days before writing this; just to let the testosterone settle...

Well, I don't' have too many things to say about the looks, except "Just look at it". Well, some of us thought the C-pillar looked like it came out of the BMW, some wondered if the low ground clearance would hurt on the usual Indian roads. Some even called it a huge PlayStation!! But, looks are subjective; and I think this Honda looks amazing. I think it goes to show that India is getting more and more mature, and won't accept anything but the latest in design. The car is complete with skirting, deep wheel wells and big 5 spoke alloys which look more Italian than Japanese. These are able to match the size of the wheel wells; unlike some other cars sold in india . The front looks amazingly aggressive; it resembles the Accord, yes but not to the extent that this becomes a carry forward. The rear end is also very muscular and big, but does give the feeling that it was completed in a hurry. The thing about this car though is that it only makes the car look chunky from the rear.
