Being different means when someone questions the Status Quo and they do not fit into the regular things followed in life. I felt I was being different when I wanted to buy a car and this was my first car. I was very excited and I did my research to find out which is the best option in the market. Whenever I read something on the internet or even when I spoke to people asking for advice, I got a response supporting Suzuki and Honda. I felt the people were biased in their opinion and some people who had no idea about the automobiles also said or asked me to buy a Suzuki or Honda. But in my mind, I always wanted to go with Fiat and I had an affinity towards it from the beginning. The reviews of Fiat were bad and I could see only complaints on the internet regarding the service and the expenses associated with the car. My father is very passionate about cars and I remember him saying that the Fiat manufactures the best engines and they are good to drive. I just wanted to go ahead with Fiat by going against everyone and their opinions. I ended up buying a Fiat vehicle and it is one of the best decisions I have made in my life. The car and the service from the company are excellent. The performance of the car is excellent and I have been using the car for almost 4 years. I have not found any flaws in the car and I do not spend much to keep the car in good working condition. So being different attitude really worked here and I am happy that I am made that decision.
