yeah cheatingdeath totally agree with you on that one.such cars cant be driven to the fullest on roads like ours. they are meant to be driven on silky smooth pot hole less roads.but what the hell.....lets just feast our eyes atleast !!!

I dont quite agree. yes if u think about using it to go anywhere and everywhere then its useless. This guy lives in andheri side... if u see the roads from there ... he can come through juhu beach and stuff straight down linking road then bandra recelmation and then follow the road to marine drive.... that gives him over 80km round trip! Imagine the fun he will have pumping it... those roads r near perfect all r concrete...for sure he doesnt have much option besides the route i mentioned coz most of the inside roads suck... but the drive through this route is divine specially in a car like that.

Ya the roads from 7 Bungalows, Andheri (w) to Bandra are almost 95% concrete.... He can either go through Juhu Beach or Pawan Hans, Vile Parle.

For sure he can't have the top speed, but he can have the 0-100's, and I guess thats as exciting as the 300kmph mark. In which other city in the world will he be able to use that car to its full potential??! No where!! He can only use it on the highways and we have a Mumbai Pune Expressway here. Every city in the world will have traffic related problems, every city in the world has pedestrains, every city in the world has signals, every city in the world has its rules, its pros and cons.

every city doesnt have speed breakers the size we have ... every city doesnt have the auto rickshaws we have .. every city doesnt have the excellent bus drivers as we have ...every city doesnt have pedistrains running arund on roads meant for cars as we have (not their fault though)...

my point here is at the moment india cant drive such cars... unless they are modified like higher ground clearance and stuff... just think about it why do we get power cut cars here... cause its siply useless... you wouldnt even get to the power band in the top or fer that matter even in the third .......thats even more frustarting...
i dont mind him buying the car he has the money and he likes it he buys it ...but its simply not practical fer india as of now

it will definately be an eye candy fer us to .... but you wont hear her roar .... you might hear her moan

All cities have speed limits and traffic. Maybe not as bad as here but they still do exist so I dont think that it is fair to say that these cars cannot be really enjoyed here but can be enjoyed abroad

And what did you say about supercars being practical
