Please can some one Answer these Questions,

2 ) If Yes What the Engine Capacity Limits

Petrol CC ? 2 Cateogries 1600cc/1800CC

Diesel CC ? 2 Cateogries 2000cc/2800CC

3 ) Can a Used Vehciales Imported for these Permits No, brand new only

4 ) What are the Conditions of Import ( Within 3 Years / 5 Year Single Permit Holde Ownership Etc ... ) 5 Years non transferable, with the book in custody of department/ministry, transferabilty can be obtained by paying full tax at any moment

5 ) Is it Transferable No

6 ) What is the Price Advanatage of a Permit Car Total tax wil be 25-45% of CIF depending on petrol/diesel engine size etc.

7 ) How will it Affect the Current Market of Used Second Hand Cars As it's non-transferable effect will be minimal, However government servants bringing new cars will sell their old ones.

8 ) Can we buy a Permit from others. No

Oh Chang, Never Knew that you were fit lover. Check what i missed from Japan Before I brought the Rotory.

HKS Turboed Honda Fit. Sadly This was out of the 3 year range by 3 months, so could not import It,

[Velocity]

By the way check how the COLT Ralliart Version R Eats The Fit ( But Fit is N/A car and still hangs on)

I love the Fit man infact my next project will be on a fit : Everything abt this car facinates me. They say from all the new honda Chassis this is the best to build on.

Its good to see the government giving these permits to its Servants, I guess spending over 50cents for each tax Rupee that is collected is just not enough, they should be given low priced cars for their lazy non taxed asses.

Pardon me for sounding bitter but anyone who tried to get any constructive work done through a government servant would have experienced this frustration, there seems to be abt 10 ppl for each job that can easily be done by one and those 10 ppl are also clueless in most cases and the sad part is that the general public and the private sector r forced to pay for thee excesses of successive governments

i think the addtional torque and the world class AWD of an EVO will still eat this alive... perhaps in a straight line this might just have a slight edge over a standard evo with complies with emission rules etc. ... but if u drag a proper FQ360 with this one the evo will eat this alive... i think it's fair to compare this with a FQ series evo as this car does not seem like it could pass any emission rules.

anyway it would be interesting to see the performance figures of this Fit

oh man i love the colt, i prefer it to a heavier lancer evo, there are so many things you can do with modifications when the car is light

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

just read a review of the colt, it's said that the chassis isn't da greatest of 'em all and FWD of is said to be having some torque steer and the height of it is said to make it have more body roll than one would expect

I think thats an unfair generalization....majority of the people who r benefiting will be University Academics, Engineers etc. who have been serving the country for a long period, ignoring opportunities in the private sector where they could be earning more money.....so i think its just reward for some hard yards....

But machang,most of the permit holders sell their permits. This is actualy a way of giving the goverment servents some extra money to be earned

I dont think selling the permits is going to happen this time around machang, some new rules and regulations including placing a sticker on the license plate are to be introduced....it will be complicated....
