Thanks EVERYBODY for all your kind comments and encouragements, it really pays off hard work when appreciated to this extent, it's been my pleasure all the way, you're welcome friends, all of you!
Let me quote a couple of comments, especially by a close and dear friend from another popular forum that we share commonly, respected brother Denovo Sahib:

If this car had third seating row I certainly would have changed my GV xl7 with this fuel friendly beauty.
Great fuel efficiency test AK bro, I am sure Toyota must have been thinking to refund at least 50% of what you paid to them for your quite effective sales promo of their new product.
Lolz, lolz, lolz, Denovo bro, your distinguished humor is found everywhere!
Thanks for visiting PW here, I especially found your post of great value, when noting that it was 1 out of 5 in total, ha ha ha! Thanks a lot bro, appreciated, Inshallah, we'll review this one once more in SLK next time I'm around, when "other" items awaiting our reviews will be reviewed as well, lolz!
As for the Indus refund, lolz! I'm getting a refund draft from them by next month, but sadly not the desired discount of 50% off, yet a mere amount of Rs. 35K's, as my car rolled out of the company just 2 days before the recent hike again, yielding me the post-budget rate, lolz! Have new tires in my mind for replacing the stock ones, so guyz one of the few Rolla's rolling out soon with "company paid" Yoko's, ha ha ha!
Thanks again Den, see you soon.

RPM high or RPM low, we are a nation which is willing to pay plus 10 lacs for a crappy cultus with literally nothing in it and which is a fuel guzzler. so for me, if one DOES have the money, this car is worth every bit its price.

Couldn't agree with you more bro, thanks. Agreed, what to do with RPM when the guyz at the filling stations can't manage pouring more down it's throat, they gladly would if they could, lolz!
@Mubeen..........Bro thanks a lot, you were one of my mentors here, lets regulate the "basses" a bit, lolz! How do you compare the 1.8's fuel consumption with the 1.6 as equal???? If from the RPM readings only, I'm sorry, that's not the right perimeter for it, ultimately it's the physical findings that should count at the fillings, i.e VTI Oriel may have 2500 for RPM at 120, but then again, what do you pay at the refills? Moreover, how to compare 1.8 with 1.6?? You gotta agree with me, and I think you did in one of your posts, that the "dual VVTI" combined with 1.6 ltrs displacements is an ideal "combo meal" for a family Sedan with respect to the correct balance of power/ratio's/fuel efficiency.
Finally, someone of our dear brethren asked for the prices of micro-fiber cloths. Well, they were Rs. 750 for a pack of 3, interior, glass and exterior cloths. The Mother's step 3 was availed at Rs. 1950 from Shahid Autos.
And another dear bro asked, whether I'm a lecturer or not, lolz ! Not at all bro, in fact, I'm the most "nikama bandha" in the world and - by the grace of Allah - with lots of time for my hobbies. I'm a builder and land developer by biz, and with wheels, nuts, bolts and anything legal in the world that's made of steel and functions by internal "combustion " as primary hobbies, lolz!
Thanks once more to everybody, Inshallah there'll be more feed-backs here soon.
Regards.
