Yeah, infact I noticed the rule after posting it. Anyway here editing is not possible, otherwise would have done that.

And that registration number is not clear too.

@mods- please do the needful.

found a few pics i had clicked at the leela:
the 6 series was a CG registration, i think it was a 635i.
the white car is a Toyota mr-s, modified by trd.
the orange gallardo is a DL registration.

Quite difficult to take pics, cause there was quite a crowd around the car that night. And also saw the Soarer driving top down. Got a pic when the top was coming back up. the RX8 parked a few cars away from this, and the guys seemed to know each other.

And im sure i've seen the rx8 chap earlier. dont think he's from out of town.

manishasrani · 19th April 2009, 21:22

A few pics that i took today .

The silver 911 belongs to a friend.

punterccrx8s · 20th April 2009, 05:30

The 911 turbo is baller!

pranava999 · 20th April 2009, 08:40

Good stuff.Nice to see the Nissan skyline gtr. In my opinion the last 5-6 years in Bangalore have seen a spurt of imports especially the sportier ones.

@Manish nice pics. Do you actually track and hunt these cars down for the camera??

Amazed at your zeaL to capture them. Keep them coming mate

In the last year or so have spotted an MB CLS (dark blue/grey on Raj Bhavan road and Mysore Road) and an SLK (white on 100ft road, Indiranagar). Both look stunning but the SLK was a jaw dropper. Has anyone else seen them around town?

pranava999 · 20th April 2009, 10:58

Also any MB SLRs in town?

fat chance to find a SLR in India. they are rare globally. But, I could be proved wrong going by the kind of moolah being doled out on cars here. I'm of the firm belief that the veyron talks can be laid to rest coz there is absolute silence on that front.

Are you by any chance Supra guy?

manishasrani · 20th April 2009, 13:38

No he is not the Supra guy

krazyking · 20th April 2009, 13:40

Wow great pictures. How does one import a car such as the GTR? I'm guessing it costs about 1 crore, as the car it self is just 50 lacks and the duty and other expenses would make it another 50.
