The Abarth looked amazing. Wait till you see its interiors! Bare, simple and functional!!! And check out that rollcage.

They ran out of hoardings when the show started. They have now been put to cover the whole place properly.

The JBL stall totally rocks. There's bikes, cars, babes, music. Amazing place to chill out. The most crow is in the JBL stall with people either ogling at the babes or the bikes or teh cars.

Here are a few of the star of the show for me (sorry Sam )



Pictures DO NOT do justice to this car...

















All other pics I have (courtesy moralfibre) are identical to whats already posted, so never mind....Barring this one. You see, Yeti1 and Yeti2 weren't the only twins at the show...

Man getting behind the wheel of this car is an amazing experience even without the engine running you feel you are in race mode. I went mad seeing this one didn't care for any other car displayed inside.

More on the Punto Abarth.

Sam stole the show with the evil twins and many more. I enjoyed myself thoroughly.

i noticed one things indians with too much money dont like to advertize on road bill boards. they buy fancy cars and advert on itself. no matter it looks like a joker but still. orange gallardo selling kids clothes. hmmm not bad really. as they say happens only in india. sometimes i wonder car companies should start having rules as to how to use their exotics and not ruin them
