Adding:
I think Jenson's sold his Veyron. GPUpdate reported that some time back.

And according to MS interview in Top Gear, he had a Fiat 500 Abarth as his city drive.

Re: F1 Drivers and their Fabulous Machines

Adrian Sutil owns a TechArt modified 911 and a CGT. Imagine how hard it must be to drive a car when an F1 driver considers it challenging. (Adrian Sutil likes the car as it is the most difficult super-car to drive) .

Re: F1 Drivers and their Fabulous Machines

It isn't Narain's Cars, he is posing with the Car for track-days held at MMST by Auto Car India magazine.

He has a Safari & an Ikon (the last I remember) He said that he wants to go for an Audi R8 though,

The 370 isn't his, but the GTR is!

Re: F1 Drivers and their Fabulous Machines

The 370z pic was taken at the time of 370z launch in India. Link to launch report with Pics & Video

Whereas the GT-R was gifted to Narain by Nissan later, because may be he was closely associated with the brand promotion in India.
