Promised you a pic of Touareg. Here it goes. Took permission from the Driver. He was kind enough to show me the interiors and tell me the owners details.

You've posted the pics incorrectly. What you wanna do is go to imageshack.us and post the hyperlink of the pic-page you create, rather than the link from your own desktop.

what the heck anyway... noticed a Audi Q7 yesterday in nungambakkam. Unregistered Black... and a very impatient driver jumping in and out of traffic. will try and catch a photo of the same next time.

yup! very impatient driver because he works for a VERY impatient man. the car can be seen in indira nagar. belongs to a big real estate promoter. from what the driver tells me he is absolutely delighted with the Q7.

Saw this Lexus GS350 (Not sure, correct if wrong) at Ascon travels. Had a KA reg.

AMATMO · 4th August 2007, 18:14

it looks like GS alright

aniguchisan · 4th August 2007, 20:05

There was no second generation GS with a 3.5 L engine specification. As stated elsewhere, either a GS300/400 or 430. OR, a Toyota Aristo

abdul 65 amg · 5th August 2007, 18:16

The SL is the best sportscar for India.Because of its ajustable susupension.

It is a Toyota Aristo Vertex V300 , those are the standard Magnesium 17 inch wheels and it has the 300bhp 2JZGE VVTi Twin turbo engine - essentially a 4 door Supra.

Did U find it in front of Ascon Travels...if so its my best fren's car...Its one among his collection of some real exotics

madan80 · 16th August 2007, 09:27

have seen the blue bug a couple of times- have never had the time to snap it up. Saw a whole procession once - the bug leading a merc e Class, followed by a mondeo.

R.G · 1st March 2008, 14:05

How come there is not thread for Chennai ????
Did i miss out or none started it yet??

Anyways.. I saw a Black Lexus 350 G in Adyar. Had good road presence.
Came home , searched internet for more details but couldnt find any 350 G Lexus. The closest I could find is a 2007 RX 350 / RX 400 h.
Is this a re badged one??
