Hello Sharks
Off topic: I am planning to buy or book a car by end of this quarter. I can spend upto 20 lacs max. So suggest me a good car.
Also, is it worth spending upto 20 lacs on a car? Why asking because constantly gets feedback from everyone includes friends, family and wife that live your life and don't think much if you can afford. I don't know if i can afford it not. But I am considering one time as well as running cost. My CTC is more than 35 LPA.

If you are living in Bangalore then no use of 20 lakh car. My car's 4th gear is still brand new as i have never used it till now. If you are fond of cars or for people who like to show off then its a separate story

Just a suggestion, why not subscribe than buy?

Good perspective you've there OP. I am on a similar situation and have been doing some research. Here are some findings:

How to calculate how much to spend on a car:
- 10x of your monthly salary (in hand) should be your car budget + in some palaces I have found it to be 1/2 of your annual income
- if possible buy a little on the lower side
- choose a car that you need, not a car you want (only for salaried people)
- what would be your average driving distances and if you'd take the car out every time you think of stepping out (people in india also keep two wheelers and in 1 year they realise they don't like taking the car out) ..

Out of curiosity how did you come at the 20L figure?

I won't say that is my budget, budget we only define and this true I will taking out the car on loan. Now 20L figure i mentioned looking the car prices. Nowadays every other car is touching 20L if you want to go for an SUV and that too c-segment (Creta, Seltos etc.)
