It seems one has made its way to Ahmedabad showroom.

Not sure if its a dealer demo car or a customer car.

AFAIK, this is owned by a dealership in Maharashtra and runs MH 14 plates. There was a review by Top Gear India with this car I believe but I could be wrong.

Side note - are those replica Fuchs alloy wheels on this car? They look bleedin' fantastic!

I believe those are Sport Design (or something of that sort) wheels, an option from Porsche.
