Those are spot welds, and you'll notice those along the bottom seam of your Yaris too...

I think it looks sweet for $2000.

Talking

We'll never see that cracker box here. However, for 2k (if that were possible) you can't lose...unless you were hit but an SUV, a Honda, a bicycle or a baby carriage, or a skate boarder. LMAO

It would look better as a 2 door hatchback (mini-Yaris).

Your Yaris will be a mid-sized car in a few years. The Nano will be the compact and who knows what will be the sub-compact.

drop it on some massive 15" wheels, could look better... swap the engine for a V6, and make the most improbable drift car ever!

Same here, didn't get what you meant by the pos car, pos....
Didn't understand if you were talking of the Tata or the large US makes. The Tata seems to be a purpose built car that hits it's mark very well...people will buy it for what it is. 90% of the large US vehicles (Hummer H3, Cadillacs, 1 ton trucks & SUVs) are bought for virtually no practical reason, just for the excess.

Sorry for the interuption....carry on

er... maybe I misunderstood you, but Tata is not from China? It's an Indian company, and I would not quiiite place them in the same league as the champions of cut'n'paste reverse engineering from the far east

I meant Tata and the Chinese making vehicles.....;) sorry for the confusion Thomas. Cut n Paste.....LOL good one, never thought of that~

I know Tata is from the Indian market. They too are just copies and no innovation aside from software and electronics >_>.....

Carry on~
