    I finally picked up a red Magnum 2.0 LT, got it registered in mid august and picked it up from the showroom on 2 Sept.
    Purchased the car through Kropex India, Blr. Would rate dealer satisfaction as 4/5.

    On the pricing front, picked up a huge discount. Corp purchase + pulled some strings out... In total it costed 10.3 lakhs. A direct savings of about 1.5+ lakhs knocked off  the original price. (KA registration costed 1.4 lakhs, sad 'n' no way around it), dealer provided 3m premium Sunfilm & carpet mats for free...
    Didn't purchase other accessories from dealer since they had limited range & were expensive

    Performance-
    No need to stress any more here.... awesome power, can match up take over any car under 15 lakhs (even the petrol ones).... its power one can't resist dragged with a civic & fiesta couple of days back and they are still a couple of days behind..... hhehee

    The car leaves you wanting for more, you seldom feel that there is a lack of power in any gear (except whn u r under performing) and its easy for one to forget to move on to higher gears.

    Sluggishness- one needs to accept that every car has a different gear ratio, and the ratio's are different from our everyday maruti, tata's, Hyundai & ford.
    One issue that I had noticed is at times the car doesn't move from 2nd gear from very low speeds.

    Interiors- A greeting/ far luxurious than most cars I have come across... however could have been a lot improved. Dash board controls lights up giving a nice green ambience

    Annoying things-

    Steering- Its out of shape and large... Making the feedback slower on lower speeds (please let me know if steering could be changed, I have Airbags mounted on the steering so need a steering mount where Airbags could be transferred to)

    Suspension- Too soft and tuned for too much comfort, makes the car to body roll most of the time, have to stiffen it during the next service

    Lights- 60/65W & very underpowered, couldn't see a thing @ night. Had to replace them the very next day
    Same applicable to cabin lights, too underpowerd to search for anything- replace them with LED's

    Keys- Only 1 key comes with remote locking, costs 3800 to get the 2nd pair with remote function

    Boot- like most cars- No luggage net  tool set is limited to a screwdriver, 1 spanner & a jack

    Back panel- has metal underlay and could not be cut without making a mess, so went for upgrading front & rear door speakers with components.

    Music system- Like any car OEM systems are not that great. Comes with a 6cd mp3 changer, no remote, aux input. Looking to replace it with JVC touch panel with blue tooth

    Apart from these minor issues the car is awesome & still the best money can buy under 11 lakhs. better option than Dezire Diesel top mode, Fiesta d zxi, verna, linea & skoda octive
    Engine Performance, Very Spacious/ Lavish- Luxurious InteriorsSteering doesn't suit the car, could have reshaped the tail end, no gadgets/ gizmos
