Also, most of the diesels are turbo charged whereas their petrol counterparts are NA. I really wish we see more turbo charged petrols. See with the Linea T-jet, the turbo gives it a massive 207 NM of torque for just a 1.4 L petrol engine.

Diesels are hugely inefficient for their size without a turbo (take the earlier Mitsubishi Lancer - its 2.0L diesel put out only 68PS), so its almost necessary to have a turbo. Plus since diesels already have stronger internals to withstand the higher compression ratios, its much easier to add a turbo.

A petrol on the other hand would need major rework just to factor in the turbo and already provides decent power ouput/litre. Although in the interest of even better efficiency, turbo-petrols are gaining traction.

Looks are subjective... City is aggressive. Linea is classic. Vento is... Polo looks better :p

Seems like you're blind... Run a poll, maybe you'll be able to buy a pair of blindfold's sunglasses, if you consider 10p. per positive reply towards the CITY... haha

looks are ofcourse subjective...as said by mjurmani, city is aggressive while linea is classy ,both are head turners.. personally i feel linea looks better.ANHC is bland from the rear and appears tinny in front of solid linea.I remember a poll in teambhp for the best looking sedan ,there Linea bagged more than 50% of votes...:D

I would love to, but looks like you're already wearing a pair :p

The City is many things - agreed. Its fairly decent looking (mind you, I never said its ugly), but best looking car at its price point - you have got to be kidding.

P.s.: Just to clarify, I personally know a few ANHC owners who won't contest this fact either. And owners are usually the most defensive about their .. waaaait a minute, you must drive a City :p

Even though I mentioned the subjective remark, I feel like creating a new thread for choosing which car in each category looks the best.

I imagine the fight would be lovely :p

How do looks matter when you spend (or should spend) most of your time behind the wheel.

It's not the car that attracts attention, it's the personality and flair of the person driving it. Hard to believe, but thats exactly what it is. If you have buck teeth and a hairy nose, you'd look a dolt even in a Agera. And Michelle Pfeiffer would look turn heads on the street, even if she was in the 4th row inside a bus.

Thanks to all...........

I am pleased by ur suggestions.

I am a lazy guy. I dont have patience to buy a second hand car and learn driving.
I am thinking to buy all new honda city which is compact type of sedan model.
Vento doesnt look good. Linea is big enough to cause driving problem. I am also thinking
of bmw 3 corporate series which has an emi option. I am very concerned about the people commenting on driving skills. I am currently undergoing driving school and if i could pull off auto transmission car, then confident of my driving skills.

I am also looking for upcoming cars like new verna,nissan sunny, renault .......

Target month of buying the car is sep-nov.
