Hey Guys

I was away for a month visiting family back home in Karachi during Dec / January. Took a whole lot of pics and would like to share some of them with you.....

We dont have a big car market back there and the market giants are Suzuki, Honda and Toyota. Talking of Honda...they manufacture Honda Civic and Honda City only while Toyota only manufactures the Toyota Corolla among sedans. There is a lot of imported JDM stock available in the market (Jspec camrys, accords, and corollas) but most of what you see on the road is either a Corolla or a Civic. Jeez..we have like three Corollas in our house and ive trying to convince my dad and brothers to buy a Civic at least.

The city is very dynamic yet strange in a way...the part of the city i live in....u can see ppl driving the Lexus, BMWs, Mercks, Jags and even Hummers.....while over 2/3rd of the population can not even afford a new car. Thats sad in a way but i cant change that...

Anyway....here are a few pics for you guys to see.


The entry level Honda City (2nd Gen)



First Gen City...much better than the new one..JDM look

An EM Civic with JDM style 14" rims (Folks just love if can have 14" rims...and believe me...i saw tons of civics and corollas with 13" tuner style wheels..haha)


My neighbor's wheels....this was taken from my rooftop. The empty land in the back is all residential space



Perhaps the smallest Chevy in the world. This is totally built in Pakistan


Public Transport...lol


Nice Rims


My Dad's Corolla (He just bought it as he thinks his V8 Toyota truck gobbles gas...thats being so hypocrytic...lol)


Dad's V8 Toyota Cygnus (Imported from Dubai)


Glad to see something like my own


Thats our house


Old school and busted Lancer


Our other two corolas (one each for my brothers) at the day of my brother's wedding...the Civic belongs to a friend


Thats me with my cousins at the beach


Thats it for now guys....will post more pics later from my one week get away to Dubai.
