re: Supercars & Imports : Kolkata

@ R8 V10 Hunters - did you guys ask about the registration plate thingy? Take print outs of pics of both the cars if possible.

i think the silver 6 series was spotted earlier by Ayan! & Rohin. But anyway, thanks for the pics.

Nope couldnt ask. Was just not the right time. Will try next time I get to meet him. The silver 6 series is pretty common and has been spotted quite a few times. The interiors are amazing.

if R8 has false plates, then it will be in trouble soon.

Pancham - if you have the un-editted pics of the R8 at Saltlake stadium - please check and confirm.
Planet - I had snapped he R8 once and posted it here.

I can confirm that the number is 9209.

He had an SL63, not a 65. And his name is Babi Nobis. It's still there, I believe. His 360 is gone. So his currrent garage consists of the F430, SL63 and now this 458. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Also add a Red Ferrari 348 to the list.Its a soft top convertible.That was the first Ferrari in Calcutta.

The Red 348 is not a Soft top Convertible. Its very much a Hard top.

I don't think so. I have lots of photographs of the car and also have seen the car many times as the owner is very well know to my Father and me. Its not at all a soft top.
It must be the red 355 that stays on Rowden street, that is a soft top convertible.

I stand corrected. Its a hard top that has a removable top. But its definitely not a soft top.

haha i've noticed in here and there on facebook too !

and excellent pictures of the 458 cityvic ! Been expecting that car from a while.

Hope to catch it in action soon !

maybe a Lamborghini vs the 458 would be something I would die for !



by the way, i'm surprised I haven't seen any pictures of the 911 on this thread ? any one successful in spotting the elusive beauty ?

Thanks.
Btw next time you upload pictures,please dont forget to watermark them.
Well Lambo is no more in calcutta.
It has gone back to Mumbai and the Grey 911 has come here instead.
Vantage Vs 458 Vs 911 Vs R8 V10 will be die for.

Oh my mistake with the name.Thanks for correcting me.By the way why haven't any of us spotted the sl63?And yeah if i am not wrong he also owned a 348ts or tb not too sure.But the 348 seems to shuttle all the time.Correct me if i am wrong.Even though i stay around Mr.Babi Nobis's place at New Alipore i have hardly spotted his exotics so far just because i have been off the city limits for my studies.But now i am back and hoping to catch a glimpse while passing by his home.Hoping to give some contribution to the forum.

re: Supercars & Imports : Kolkata

The SL63 has been spotted at the Tollygunge Club. It was there for a car show, I guess.
