Whammy and Double Whammy!! A McLaren SLR

I just hope this is not one of those "Veyron" spottings.. I seriously doubt someone would get a RED SLR.. If Yes I bet it would be on Carnet from somewhere in the Gulf!

We need pics please!!

Yeah, I won't be surprised if its a tricked out SL/SLK from Brabus/kleeman/hamaan.. Had it been the SLR, some one would have spotted it for sure and members here sometimes misinterpret Opel coupes to be ferraris.

I have to agree with Ecksreturns here. The benifiet of doubt goes to the SL and not the SLK. The similar thing happened in Bombay with the Black Kitted SL that was mistaken for the SLR. Please do post pictures of the car, i am sure someone would have seen it.

BMW X6 in Hyderabad!!

So I was in Jubilee hills club on Tuesday and surprise,surprise my second spotting of an X6 in the whole world - the first one being in Los angeles. Anyway, the truck ( I can see the BMW guys cringe, heheheh ) was black, had the 20 inch Y-spoke wheels in graphite. My first impression was hotdamnn!! My second impression was why BMW,why??
I have to admit though, it's very cool looking. That would probably be the only reason why you would buy one. Oh, couldn't tell which of 3 available engines it had. I'm hoping it wasn't the diesel. Also, the car had Delhi temporary plates.
P.S: I'm an idiot for not taking pictures - I guess I'll keep an eye out in Jubilee hills. Some help here from the Hyderabadis?

Yes Magnus Motors Delhi did sell a Black X6, so i guess this is the one. The car looks phenominal. i did see them in Dubai. Dont know of its drive but looks are really good.

I came across the picture in a random picture search for an SL that was offered to me for sale on Yahoo images. Here is the link for the pictures.

Hi junkishya,

please check the photo, it does not look like an M5 to me. It is the M6 coupe. the M6 badge in the rear is not visible, but still i make my claim that it is an M6 because M6 have the double-twin exhausts unlike the regular twin exhausts of the 6 series.
M5 looks the same as the 5 series sedan. except for the performance

the photo of M6 is attached for your reference.
