Your talking of getting a car in that year..i am saying getting it in one piece after waiting for a year would be a big thing.

I have heard an Irate customer has damaged the Showroom..could someone confirm this news?.

^Speedy, i spoke to one guy Manish. Who i was told was the MD of the dealership. HE told me he is fighting a case against VW, the now owners of porsche for cancelling the dealership. He also told me he has a letter from Audi, that they apologized for canceling their dealership. Now God knows which is true. He also told me he has sold 48 Ferraris in India and that our bhpian is his latest customer. Mr KD has booked a f12. My friend from bangalore wants to book a 458 with these fellows. He promised us that he shall give phone numbers of few of his customers for us to talk and also ask if they had any complaints. He also said most of the people were jealous of his dealership.

I believed every word he said, but one thing in the end made me feel he was a scorn lier. He said that he took a lot of pains to get this dealership and they had beaten TATA motors to get this dealership. I was like ***!! why would TATA motors opt for a dealership when they can buy the whole company itself?? :

Last night I saw a red 458 Italia spyder at carter road. I'm guessing its the first and the only one.

The car you saw belongs to Spyderman..if indeed it was the Spyder. Bandra also is the residence of a Red 458 coupe.

So are there two blue 458s in Mumbai?? Cause I just spotted a really darker blue than the one in the previous post followed by an orange Aventador at Chowpatty. The 458 sure looked fantastic but was completely over-shadowed by the flashier and bigger Aventador.

There is only one Blue 458 in Bombay. The other car was a Black and that is sold to Bangalore.

Oh so probably I saw the black one and the blue xenon lights of the Aventador played the trick.

The car you saw is the one whose picture is posted above..Blue with smoked orange interiors. At Different times of the day the color appears darker, similar to my car. In bright sunlight its bright purpleish blue, in the evening its dark blue and at night appears black. The black car is sold to Bangalore a while ago.
