Ferrari pics from Mumbai

That's an absolutely beautiful example of a very well kept exquisite beauty !

OT: The Prado looks almost double the height of this beauty.

Well its not a Prado ,its either the LX470 or the Toyoto Land Cruiser. I am pretty certain its the later.

It is indeed a Toyota Land Cruiser sir. My mistake.

BTW u wrote TOYOTO !

@FlyingSpur: I was with the car today for sometime. Must say that she is a beauty. Couldn't get to listen to her, as she was there for some work. Got a chance to feel her for sometime.

I completely agree with the words "Sportscars are never meant to be perfect". The seating position, the rear view while reversing, the creature comfort that today's cars deliver. But who cares, it was my second Ferrari. I thought of posting the pics, but you have done the needful. I am smitten...

What a beauty. Have seen this car plenty of times before but I admit I love it in this yellow colour. This is one of the few Ferraris which look equally good in this shade other than red.

Nice pictures. Thanks for sharing.

I thought that was in Calcutta. This is probably the one with NL reg which has been spotted in Pune before.

This happened around 7-8 years ago. I was on my home from my grandpartents place at Napean Sea road, and as we were passing the american Consulate, we saw this ferrari. So we slowed down and he scraped the underbelly quite badly on the speedbreaker. This was aorund 2002 as I remember heavy enforcements outside the consulate as a result of 9/11. Incidentally, the first time I saw a Gallardo, and strangely I distinctly remember that it was Black, It was at exactly the same place. Funnily, I have never seen the black gallardo again. But, I knew enough to know what car it was. And I know I am not wrong.

Nope this car which I have clicked is Spiderman's Ex 360 Spider which was Harayana registered.

Bumping this thread as I could not find a dedicated thread for the 488gtb in Mumbai.

I had stepped down for a jog after a long time. To my surprise I saw a red beauty parked in my apartment complex. It was the Ferrari 488gtb.

We all know what would've happened to my "jog".
Sat on a bench near the car and was just admiring the front of this beauty for a long, long time.

Apologies for the horrible picture quality, currently using a spare phone with a terrible camera.
