Anvaller:

u forgot to tell him that it is not very easy though. He must be ready to shed some sweat while doing the polishing and if its a big car, that means more area to polish and more sweat. If he's not used to working out, advisably, don't think u would wax ur car and cruise it out immediately after, u might end up so tired to do so. Although its not a big deal if u are used to physical stuffs then u should be able to handle it.
True dat

Thanks bud.

Fuel consumption has never been one of my considerations, with regards to engine size. I enjoy the low-down power and torque, that only a large capacity, naturally-aspirated engine can provide, and appreciate the fact a lot of heat goes into producing that power...and a lot of fuel needs to be burnt, to produce that heat.

So no, I don't begrudge a powerful engine it's fuel consumption. smiley

Sometimes, who is driving and where it's been driven also determine it's 'head-turning' ability.

Drives a 2005 Toyota 4runner SUV. Hardly turns head in my regular places(Ajah and VI),except on few occasions when my stature betrays the car and couple of watchers look 2nd time to check whether na this pako-looking slim guy get d vehicle.

It however turns more heads when my hijab-wearing wife drives it.

And turns most heads when I am in my hometown. cheesy

That's my observation.

In any case, I like good cars.
