  1. Is this the base model panda for 2.7m? I've seen pics of it online and apparently it has black bumpers and doesn't have power windows. Kind of a big drawback for that kind of money. I'm definitely not a big fan of Perodua. I really don't mind the Gen2 though. Any idea as to how much it costs?
  2. Brand new car prices are just insane. I remember 8 years ago, a brand new civic was 1.8million. Well I found out that both the Indian and Japanese swift is out of stock. The new Rio would've been nice but its out of my budget and there's a 4 month waiting list. So basically that leaves me with just the Panda and Hyundai i-10. The i-10 is Indian assembled and costs 2.4m. Does anyone know anything about the Fiat Panda?
  3. Hey guys I need your help. I was thinking of buying a car recently that's brand new and one that would be good on fuel. My budget is 3 million and so far all I could come up with is the Suzuki Swift, Kia Rio and Hyundai Accent. I think the Swift costs 2.7 million but I have no idea how much the other two would cost. Would there be any other brand new cars under my budget as well?

    My New Ride!!

    haha yes it is. As I mentioned on my last post I wanted to show you guys the comparison between the 2 cars
  5. A 1996 presea seems decent too, and usually comes with a airbag.

    Here are some cool pictures I found of the XG online. A russian automobile website said that the XG30 resembled the Silver seraph a bit. What I find is that the alloys of the rolls are similar to the XG's stock alloys, and the shape of the back(the way the body curves to the lights).

    Nope that couldnt have been mine. There's another black XG30 that I've seen quite often. It look really lovely. He's got 18 inch alloys and the standard XG hood ornament. There's also a minister that has a white XG30. There's a picture of mahinda on the rear windscreen.

    Sorry to dissapoint you mate. The guy who owned the car before lives there
  9. hey guys I need your help. One of my friends was interested in the 2005 Lexus IS250. I remember seeing that in the h*t ad, but I don't have that paper anymore. I was just wondering if any of you guys knew which shop had that car. I think its the only one in sri lanka.

    My New Ride!!

    Cost me 2.3 mil. I'm guessing there should be about 20 XGs at the most. Not as rare as the optima where there about 10. Yeah I was quite surprised myself! I think its because the engine was well maintained. It does the same as my dad's optima which is a 2L

    My New Ride!!

    Well sometimes luxury costs a lot!! But believe me its worth it. I have a little 1.5L rio that I use on some days. The XG does about 7- 8 km/l but to pump a full tank really does pinch the wallet. The leather is absoloutely gorgeous.It's really really comfy. Guess I have to change it to streetkiahyundai Damn these pictures are taking hours to upload. I'll try and upload some full pics from my phone so it wont be that large.

    My New Ride!!

    HEy guys! This my new ride which I got about 2 months back so I thought I'll post some pictures of it. The car's a Hyundai Grandeur XG30. It has a 3.0 litre V6 engine that pumps out about 200bhp which enables it to accelerate from 0-60mph in 8.5 seconds. It also has a top speed of 225km/h. Luxury wise it has everything you could want from a car. Well it has leather seats, front electric seats, wood trim, 6 speakers, 5-speed shiftronic, foot operated parking brake, leather wrapped steering wheel, digital climate control,map lights, front and rear door lights, rear reading lamps, dual a/c, auto lights, etc. It also has dual airbags and abs with ebd.

  17. I do get your point, but the fact remains that people will still buy it regardless if it doesn't look "stylish" enough. Some people look mainly at practicality and safety when buying a car, and the sedona seems to offer it ( 5 star crash test rating). But I guess it all comes down to your personal opinion on it. The new sedona looks rather nice, maybe it will appeal to more people.
  18. I do agree with you. The sedona is not stylish at all, but I do find cars that are absoloutely hideous compared to the sedona. It's no ferrari, it wasn't designed to be stylish, but to serve its main purpose and that's being a practical vehicle. I feel that the styling of the sedona is typically your average joe car where no one will dare impart a second glance at it, but it doesn't deserve its ranking there. Well there's my opinion on it. You're definetely entitled to your own. Yeah there are some good looking kia's out there, my optima is proof of it
  19. No offence madmax, but the car looks deformed. What are its options like? Maybe it can compensate for its looks.( It better have radar, sat nav, a top speed of 300km/h) j/k
  20. How is the sedona ugly? I think it has rather conservative styling
  21. that ass hit me once on my bumper . some godaya from tv
  22. It looked nice, but for that price it definetely had to have something wrong with it. Anyone know much much that red 156 went for with the large spoiler and bodykit?
  23. I wanted to suggest this. It would be a good idea
  24. The graphics card on the asus has hardware T&L, but the GMA 950 on the acer doesn't. It only had T&L software I think. On Intel's website it states that the GMA 950 can play games like NFS most wanted, world of warcraft, etc I'm guessung on medium settings though.
