).. Anyways he has quite a few exotics i guess , last of which happend to be a M3 from chennai .. Can anyone confirm this ??

bike importer yes....m3 im not sure...lexus for certain...... BRILLIANT honda....BRILLIANT zen.... and BRILLIANT busa if he still has it....

i still think 42 for a boxsters a complete waste....sporty and all yeh....but on a boxster????hhhhmmmm.. i saw yesterday...kumara park area...saw a crappy miata also...(is that how you spell miata???) very hott lukin...very sporty with the low clearance and mags n all...but still... nvm.... i want more on the slk...what colour...model??? never seen it...

went to Diamond District this morning (around 730ish) and saw a white Bangled 530 and a red and white CBR on TN plates, couldnt see the plates on the beemer though.

the 5 series looks real cool in white!

"Mr.Bike Importer" bought a Boxter. Yes,correct.
But, 42 lakhs might be his selling price....not his buying price.

He bought the chennai M3 for around 11 lakhs. Do u think he's brainless to pay 42L for a boxter??? We get used 911 carreras for that price,man!

manson · 4th July 2006, 16:29

sure the price paid was much below 42.
if i remember correctly the car's pic has been posted on the forum, car owner tried hard to race in the 2004 speedrun, but wasnt allowed as it was a last minute entry.
ajmat i think the number was borrowed from bond.
nitrous - same bike dealer that shuttles between chennai and bangalore?

spent 30 mins looking for the bombay car's snap, but of no avail. though the car is mentioned in the 2004 speed run report.
good thing = came across a whole lot of old threads in the motorsports section which many have forgotten/don't know about.

nitrous....

42 was what I heard...could be wrong also...as i have been...found out a while back from someone else that he's askin for like 45 odd ...so yeh...I'm guessin he bought it for MUCH less....the guy who told me he bought it for 42 must've mistaken buying for selling.

whateva he paid though...still think its a waste on a boxster....like you said...you can get a 911 for a lil more....

so he did pick up the m3?? nice.... did'nt hear about that...

This is a different car,ajmat. How would anyone have the heart to sell a beautiful E46 M3 for such a throw-away price??

v1p3r, it's a small world. If you happen to know anything about this dealing then it's also your duty not to make it public.

I'm deleting this post for obvious reason.
