yep, thats 5 people out of 1.3 billion.

comon now, this thread was not even about bashing any country. but lets call a spade a spade. india is one of the poorest country out there. you cant sugar coat it with corruption or population. those are the factors/reasons but it is what it is, a poor country.

also, how do you define bad drivers? arent you a bad driver if you cant follow simple road rules and have discipline? some of you are defining "good" as being able to navigate through heavy traffic and weav in and out of lanes the whole time disregarding road rules and annoying others. in some countries, thats actually considered as the worst drivers.

Driving a lambo there is just a punch in the face to the other citizens. Stop running away from your own country. Help and make a difference.

Pull your head out of your *** and stop mistaking fake internet pride for common sense.

OK, I am adding zephyr to the list of fast rising 'W204 section doucheclowns' God damn it the list is growing everyday. Let me guess. You bought an 09 C63 for $32k and think you have arrived in this world? Dimwits like you whose passport pages are empty (clue: you haven't traveled) become the biggest keyboard warriors.

So a country that's consistently in the top 10 largest world economies is considered one of the poorest by some people here... That's a very interesting definition of poor!

I really hope this thread gets locked soon!!!

Well too bad you think that way! We will just have to agree to disagree.

I'm the OP and I posted this to encourage members to appreciate the infrastructure that many of us enjoy that allows us to stretch the legs on our cars. I'm dismayed at the ugly turn it has taken.

Mods, if you'd please delete this, I'd be grateful.

yep roads suck, too much traffic, but surviving.. a C63 here is more like 200k min then you get charged registration which ranges from 4% to 24.5% depending in the state you live in.

Wow! Nice! I made onto your tiny insignificant **** list! My life has changed now! I'm a doucheclown! Awesome. You got so frustrated that you combined a word that is so 2008 and "clown"....crafty. Then you assume I bought a "$32K AMG and think I arrived in this world"? Nice. Then you make the assumption I "haven't traveled". Nice again.

For someone claiming I make assumptions, you are the pot calling the kettle black.

This doesn't have ANYTHING to do with AMG, or who I am am, or when I bought an AMG, (and all your other BS), so get lost. It's more a geopolitical conversation, which you have thus far contributed ZERO. I stated some things such as:

-India is corrupt
-India is socially, religiously, politically skewed etc.
-Many Indians get "married" as a way to get to the US

These are KNOWN facts.

India has a beautiful people, a beautiful country and history. As Gandhi stated, be the change you wish to see (perhaps I'm paraphrasing).

And if it has to come down to AMG, and a whose who, and all that other my weiner is bigger BS, etc...I was driving and toying with Mercedes-Benz AMG while you mother was still wiping your *** clean of baby ****. So FO.
