It was a CLS...saw it in the most unexpected area somewhere in North Delhi.

nice pictures redcandle. you would find alot of foreign imports in india and in delhi there are loads of them in every corner. i see you have been to the petrol pump at Vasant Vihar. some of the other cars are also from a dealers place and stand on the road more like a service road.
the car you asked about is a CLS you can make it out from the rear glass and the hood. they slope in towards the boot.
all in all you had a wonderful car spotting visit.

Thanks Speedy

I had a great time to observing the change in the car buying trend in India now a days. People are raking loads of money in and spending it in the best possible way (buying good cars).

I still missed out on the Lambos, Ferraris and Porsche. Guess dint hang around the posh areas enough. Damn! I now need a good guide (petrol head) to take me around town. cheers:

yes the trends are changing and more and more people are spending on lifstyle products now. the cars are seeing an upward trend and many a good cars are being brought in.
the next time you in delhi give me a shout i'll take you to see the cars you missed. a tip just hang around khan market in the evenings you shall spot them. i spotted two 911's there in a fraction of minutes while waiting for my friend.

In fact i had a long race with Yuvraj Singh in his M5 all the way back from Jaipur after the match. he was given the car the night before at the after party! the funny thing is he got beat by the supercharged!

That's exactly what I meant by 'killer' - the maniac one.

The funny thing is that he probably drives a little more sanely. I've seen how you move around in that Rangie on narrow roads. I won't even begin to fathom what you do on the open stretches of an Indian highway.

@redcandle: did you visit delhi solely for the purpose of clicking pics of these cars. you've literally been on a clicking spree.
GREAT PICS
