Supercars & Imports : Chennai

CrAzY dRiVeR · 9th January 2012, 12:07

Porsche Boxter S, spotted near Indira Nagar metro station. It was taking the OMR route, and looked like some techie going to office.

Sad part - couldn't spot any numberplates!

Hi CrAzY dRiVeR, I spotted the very same Boxter in the evening near Indira Nagar. Also spotted a black Boxter on Besant Nagar Avenue too a while earlier.

Also spotted a Grey Aston Martin in Mahalingapuram area on 7th January around 4:45 p.m. It was my first spotting of an Aston Martin!

Spotted a Jaguar at around 7:30pm today at TNHB colony main road, Velachery. Was surprised to see it there, because that area is a ordinary residential area and a bit dull (not to offend anyone) too. And this car was parked just in the road-side among other Ambassadors and Indicas.

Not sure if posted before or not.

Ferrari 458 Italia and Lamborghini Gallardo in Chennai - YouTube

Sorry i could not see the video on my mobile. But considering the plates on the 458, I'd say it was registered a month or 2 ago max. Nothing before it. Unless the car was used unregistered. I mean who would dare stop it for papers .

Guys, just a gentle reminder on this post by eshwar.mohan, anyone has any information, tidbits about the presence of these 3 cars together?

I think that the brown car in the background is the Cement company's and not the production company's. If we could by the registration number alone, the black one in the foreground could be the production company's.
I have never seen a white Phantom in Chennai before. Does is belong to the city?

Another point, was this picture shot in Chennai at all?

Maverick5490, Mlcarrera, anekho and others could throw more light.

Haven't seen the White Phantom in town either, looks like a recent entrant, or maybe was in hiding all this while ! With Rolls finally setting up a dealership downsouth, expect to see a lot more of them Rolling into the south

The picture link from Facebook does say they were taken at the airport in Madras, but yes, I've never seen the white phantom before either.
