    Pretty nice if you ask me. Congrats OP!

    Here in Brazil you can’t even get a new car with 11K USD. You could, about 5 years ago. But our economy is so fucked up that even the cheapest brand new car goes for about $14.2k dollars. And that’s a barebones entry level Renault Kwid (considered a shitbox, if you will).

    Oh, Brazil… why?

      We have the kwid here as well but no one buys it , I’ve driven it , kwid starts at 5000 usd and the triber at 8000k which is leaps and bounds safer and better

        Yeah, the Kwid is initially Indian. They brought it here to fill in for the Clio that was leaving (we were still on the 1990s Clio). Seems good for the city courses but super unsafe for highways. Also, there’s a lot of people complaining a LOT about reliability on the long term. Also, it’s small as hell. I’m 1.80m and my knees hit the dash. Guess they gave us a project rejected in Asia, and we bought it, hard. Brazil sucks, man.

        Didn’t know the Triber, had to Google it. Looks much safer, indeed. Looks like a mix of a Dacia/Renault Duster and a Renault Captur. I dig the design, better than the Kwid.
