I think, its time to reveal my ride. I didn't feel like making another thread cause i think its just an ordinary altis 1.6 like everybody has plus there are already few threads running, so no need of another one.
selected "autophiles" thread cause i think its The best for altis 1.6 review, so far its pretty simple and very informative as well, plus he gets the credit of giving us free "installation guide for how to install navigation maps":). He has saved us almost 10,000 each.
thanks a lot brother.
Anyways sorry for hijacking your thread for only one post :D. just wanna to show you guys few pics of my car while taking delivery. So that you guys can count me in the league of "1.6 happy owners".
I am really thankful to @autophile, @nido747 in changing my mindset from 1.3 A/T to Altis 1.6. After what happened with @Fouadbhakt, I am really satisfied with my decision.
atleast now i don't feel deprived, while seeing civic 9th generation or a grande cause i have more or less the same car.
guys am not saying that 1.3 A/T is a bad car, its perfectly alright. It runs well and serves the purpose but you need to drive altis 1.6 before buying 1.3A/T.
When you sit in Altis 1.6, It feels like you are sitting in a different world. the feeling of having a full package car with almost all the goodies "grande" has, Its not expressable and the resposiveness of latest "1ZRFe" is too good. You guys might not agree with me but i am telling you what i felt.
you know what lacks in 1.3A/T, at least in my opinion. after spending 18,45000+40,000+40,000+ Insurance(60,000) equals 19,85,000. so you end up paying two million right? I think, its not worth it at all.
In two million you are getting same old engine and no extra goodies. So i think one needs to think about buying 1.3A/T twice before making a decision.
Obviously there are people who have very very tight budgets. So they dont have any choice but still i believe a person who can spend two million can go for one extra mile as well.
In my case i had a tight budget but still i went for 1.6, while thinking that i wont buy "IPhone 6 plus" this year . will wait for next year.
So this is a short version of, how i ended up buying "altis 1.6".
One more thing, i really like "Frost white" in grande, so my dream of owning "Frost white" came true as well.
No hard feelings, just a personal perception or analysis.
now its time to reveal some pics, while taking delivery.
