A180? Is that an exotic?
Well, there is one in my street! A white one with Temp plates!

There ya go, yes there is an E60 5 (with M-kit) in Chennai and E60 5 Touring in Bangalore in the same shade, but this was the only M5.
Was given to understand this car had crashed when being test driven by a prospective buyer when on sale with its 1st owner, next owner fixed it and changed the paint. A perfect car ruined

you have got your information wrong..

Master Blasters driver had hit the wheel on a divider while taking the car to Navnit Motors to be kept for sale. The suspension had got damaged and the fender got dented, it was not "Crashed" as you metion..it was fixed by Master. The second owner wanted to change the colour and modify it for his own whims and fancies and ruined an otherwise good car. I know as i was going to buy the car before it got hit and had seen the car when it was hit too at the workshop, the price quoted did not suit me and hence had to let it go.

Thanks for pointing out that my information was wrong and repeating that i mentioned it was "crashed" (not sure since when suspension getting damaged to the extent of fender getting dented does not classify a crash ) but I suppose you are the authority/professional on all types of info floating around. PS I did put a cautionary start to my sentence "I WAS GIVEN TO BELIEVE"

Bottom line the car is "crashed" as far as I am concerned:

Refer: crash
/kraSH/
Verb
(of a moving object) Collide violently with another object: "the coffin slid down the hill and crashed".
Noun
A violent collision, typically of one moving object with another or with an obstacle.
Adjective
Done rapidly or urgently and involving a concentrated effort: "a crash diet".
Adverb
With a sudden loud sound: "crash went the bolt".
Synonyms
verb. smash - break - shatter
noun. smash - clash - collision - collapse
adverb. loudly

It would be completely futile to now argue over how much/what levels constitute degree and level (Violently etc). Hope this adds to your rapporteur of already over flowing info on the happening around cheerio

Thank you on your crash course for the term Crash.

To a lay man the term crash comes across as a total loss vehicle. I am no authority but you do talk as though you are mister know it all and anything said otherwise to your believe or knowledge on the forum on varous threads is taken by you with a pinch of salt or hurts your ego. Anyways i wont be replying to any of your replies regarding this topic. Cheers.

Re: Supercars & Imports : Chennai

Note from Mod

Now that the collision has happened, let us avoid the roadside arguments, let's focus on the car's and less air-bagging!

Supercars & Imports : Chennai

The previous Chennai based supercars and imports thread seems to have disappeared
So, I started a new one.
Mods: If you'll recover the previous thread then merge this into that one.

Saw this white Lexus RX350 today in Adyar.

The rest are pics I've uploaded before incase the mods are unable to recover the previous thread
