Look really sexy !!!

By the way, I have noticed that most of the sports car or imports have been spotted mostly in Jubillee Hills and Banjara Hills only ! I guess the other members might agree on this.

That's because most of the rich people have their houses in those two areas. And add to that the fact that the best road for the last few years has been KBR.

Since it's the Checkpost petrol bunk, I'm assuming either unleaded or Speed. But to maintain good sports cars, the recommended fuel is a special performance one that's available (I think) in just one place in Hyderabad.

Hyderabad, Dec. 24 German luxury carmaker Audi has received three bookings for its super sports car Audi R8 before it was formally launched in Hyderabad.
Hyderabad is the second city where the car was launched after its debut in Delhi this November. As the machine stood majestically in the showroom at Banjara Hills, the technology and design prowess of Audi’s team were once again at the fore.
Priced at Rs 1.17 crore ex-showroom, the sports car works out to about Rs 1.4 crore and could go up depending upon features a customer pre.
Within eight months of commissioning Audi showroom in Hyderabad, Olympus Motors sold more than 100 luxury cars. While the slowdown has impacted all segments, the luxury car market has grown by 45 per cent during this year, Mr Rajiv M. Sanghvi, Managing Director of Audi Hyderabad, said.
Addressing a press conference to announce the launch of Audi R8 in Andhra Pradesh, Mr Sanghvi said the first car will be delivered in January 2009.
There is huge appetite for such cars within people who are frequent travellers abroad. These are the ones who have ordered in Hyderabad, he said."Over the last nine months, we have been getting enquiries from customers throughout the State",he said.

The Audi sports car, rated as the Best Car in Sports Cars and Coupes in October 2008, is powered by a 4,200-ccV8 engine and generates about 420 BHP with a top speed of 301 km an hour.
The two-seater car comes ready-equipped with R Tronic gear shifting system, LED tail lights with a three-dimensional effect, 140-watt audio system, driver information system with integral stopwatch for taking lap times, sports seats trimmed in combined Alcantara/leather, 18-inch wheels fitted with cast alloy wheels besides a range of additional accessories. It also comes in custom-ordered colours based on customer’s preference
After launch of Audi cars in Hyderabad, in less than eight months, we have garnered about 20 per cent of the market share in luxury cars. However, given the current trend and the general impact on the economy, we are cautious about growth prospects for next year,” he said.
Audi’s other models — A4,A6,Q7 — have received excellent response, he claimed.
