    Ameya chose cars over Shakespeare and has been in love with the Porsche 917, ever since he first laid his eyes on it. Cars are not just a mode of transport for him, but a passion, as can be seen in the way he talks about them. He believes - respect your car and the feeling will be reciprocated. He enjoys driving, which is probably a given, but its a stress buster, which is why he enjoys his job even more.
