Audi R8 spotted in front of Hyatt Regency by me around 8pm today.I feel like cursing myself for not asking the owner for a ride,but was with dad so couldn't help it.The owner is a really nice guy,he gives a ride to everyone who asks for it.

WoW!! Never knew the R8 would come down to Salt Lake from Park St/Russell St (that is where it is spotted most of the times). Considering the road conditions of E.M Bypass i wonder if it got unloaded from a truck in front of the Hyatt!

Exactly

.I was coming back from the hospital and suddenly I see a low sports car turning in fornt of Hyatt and the lights at the back made me recognize it.I started shouting R8-R8.Then took the phone and clicked a pic.

scuderiamania · 15th September 2010, 17:30

Ok, I admit the pics I have taken are not great but I tried..

Anyway, its a Q7, a black one. I guess this has been spotted by other Kolkata BHPians.

Pancham · 15th September 2010, 20:49

nice try scuderia!!

Here is a black Cayenne S I spotted.It had a pretty new number plate
(WB-06-D-****). So I am guessing that this is the newest Porsche in Kolkata.

shamik.bose · 15th September 2010, 21:07

The R8 looks fabulous. The black Q7 looks total gangsta.
Btw, I spotted these over the past coupla days

Ford Transit

Common Shamik what is so "Gangsta" about the Q7? It doesnt even have dark tints.

shamik.bose · 15th September 2010, 23:29

@Pancham: Its not about dark tints or bling rims or the like. A black behemoth like the Q7 and indeed, the Cayenne also, makes you step aside, like you'd do for the Godfather.

Too many of these ugly SUVs here.
I hear that a Guards Red Cayman S is going to hit the roads soon.
A blue bug can be regularly seen along Gariahat road in the late afternoons.

Eeek. What a strange colour for the Cayenne. However I suppose it`ll be the first 2010 Cayenne here or is the black one in the pic a 2010 one?
