I didn't read all of the thread, but here's a query:
My cousin earns about 50k per month, and has no liabilities/loans on him. He isn't married, and everyone in family is working. What cars should he look at? He isn't going to take loans, has money already for car, just maintenance is problem. :P

No liabilities, no family nothing...hmmm, sounds interesting.
No loans etc means the guy will always have an advantage that he won't have that extra burden over his shoulders. If I'd have been at his place then my choice would have been a premium hatch or a sedan like City, Fiesta etc or even an entry level SUV like Safari, Scorpy whatever comes under 12 lacs.
Buying a big car isn't enough, there is nothing with running too- 'just add the fuel and press on the gas'. What causes the problem is the maintenance, accidental repairs and insurance premiums etc and looking at these factors, any person earning upto 40-50k must not go too high while purchasing.
Wonderfull thread, I think this thread was created an year back when value of currency was about 10% more than today's value. I was in the bracket of punto, swift etc.. if I purchased it last year. Now I can aford a wagonR as per the calculations the thread start with, which I am having now.
My heart is up for a BRIO which is beyond my monthly income as I hold a Homeloan repayment about 26% of my montly Salary. After deducting my EMI, I am falling into the class who can afford an Alto now. But I have a wagonR with me now and still trying to go for a BRIO![Frustration [frustration] [frustration]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Frustration.gif)
Listen to Heart or live up the present?

Though you fell into Alto category, not you can plan it another way too if you wanna go for Brio and move ahead taking the overall expenses and net savings in consideration.
Rest if I am being asked then sorry for heart breaking words buddy, but in case of financial matters I prefer mind over heart.
Good thread Vipul !!
After reading all the pages, most of the experiences are same and most of the cases shows that people have opted more than what they want.
So keeping all the calculation aside, I always feel and follow one thing whenever I buy either a car or something else
Buy just according to your need and not according to your desire !! believe me you will be very very comfortable in life !!
