‘Desi’fication

corolla 05

Not the one above. But something similar(!!) to this 2005 Corolla. I finally bought a late 90’s Toyota Corolla with enough miles on it. As my car search rolled from weeks into months, it was like Than muyarchiyil satrum manam thalaraatha vikramaadhityan stuff. Alas, I fell a prey to the ‘desi’ HondaToyotaHondaToyota syndrome, only for good. The nice thing about this used car is that it has Kenwood CDs/speakers and I’m already looping Anbe Aaaruyirey. Nice to drive, am not cribbing here. Thanks to Sridhar for helping me with the car google.

So when you drive by the streets of Redmond, if you hear someone blasting Fanah in a maroon corolla and shouting alongwith it, give me a kick, thats me.

  7. Way to go. After adding 60000 miles to my camry, i’m still totally in love with it! long live the desi shopping culture! by the way, did you get a cassette adapator to plug in to your mp3 player and your car stereo? i finally managed to get rid of my 100 scratched cd-rs. Here are some good car songs- Andhi mazhai, Poo maalaye thol serava. For long drives, S.V shekhar is the best
