Supercars & Imports : Pune

[torqueunlimited]

A brand new white X5 has also landed. And the Audis are now on display at the new showroom on SB road.

[payam]

I've seen a black X5 with HR...TEMP... reg number.

[hkanitkar]

there are 3 new X5's in pune i guess. The white one is latest. Other two being grey ( spotted twice outside mukundnagar Reliance fresh and once while it was under homologation process ) and a black ( spotted near ILS ).

Q7 ( reg / un-reg ) - i have stopped counting. Just too common now

BTW there's a silver VW Jetta doing rounds of deccan area. I dont think its launched here - right ??

@Audi showroom on Senapati Bapat road - Lovely location - the cars are displayed in such a way that you have to look up. And somehow the cars look so freakin good from that angle.

yes its not launched yet,and in the price range it is ,it cannot be imported without homologation if i am not wrong so it must be for the test

The blue Z4 is always seen standing at that builders office at East Street. Pune's first current gen 5 series used to stand there earlier.

One of the Lexus LX in Pune

[v10]

Dude thats a lc 200 not a lexus lx570. cant believe they've already come out with the lexus grilles and all!! i dont like the idea of owning a landcruiser but posing as if it is a lexus.. i have always kept my landcruiser 101 free of any lexus body kits/badges...

i was quoted 61 for the new version with 5-6 lakhs commision... also the hdd + navigation costs 7000 usd$ !!! but is worth it..

to me it looks hideous... theres a silver one in delhi too. imported by a friend and looks huge.. its not a sports utility vehicle but a utility vehicle and the most reliable suv ever made!

[cncity]

It might be called as a land cruiser in India, here in north america its a Lexus and so is the Grill/logo on this car. A Lexus feels more like a Luxury brand than a LC which is just Toyota. Do people change grills in India just for showoff if this is a LC.?

Anyways a gr8 looking SUV.

It isn't a Lexus grille on the LC200. It's just a Lexus badge. They're available everywhere. Probably a Rs. 4000 mod. He still ain't foolin' us cuz the 570 and this 200 don't share the high level of similarities that the 470 and the Cygnus/Amazon did.

@ A6 - Plenty of them in pune. get to see a Golden one almost everyday in mukundnagar.

Yes hrishikesh you are right that TT is bluish silver in color and i saw it twice on the same spot. But which showroom you are talking about!!?? AFAIK there was no Audi showroom in Pune then.

Yes i know about Bhushan's TT.

And as for the A6, i mentioned it because so far ive seen all the A6 with 2.7TDI engines (even the A6 in the newly opened Pashankar showroom: is 2.7TDi) where as this particular A6 i saw was a 3.0L TDi one. Hence, thought about mentioning. The car displayed in the showroom is 3.0TDi and is the A8.

Spotted in Pune...some are blurry coz all pics were taken from a moving car.

Couldnt take pics of the Audi black A4, A6,black BMW 3 series, Silver Lexus LX, silver BMW 5-series and the Black BMW X5 spotted on Apte road.

There is a Black VW JEtta in kothrud just opposite Karnataka High School.
