The most happening car in this thread right now and also the most elusive ( to me)

This is the 997 Tourbo MarkII right?

@Manish - What is the count of the XFs in Bangalore?

Cant help it brother,had to take the pic in a couple of seconds from a moving vehicle.So...

And AFAIK there are 4 XFs in Bangalore-2 Black,a silver and a maroon.

Nice pictures Manish and Unknownsatan! The Turbo looks pretty good in white!

No offence to you Bro,I meant even the best of pictures will never make justice to the XF.Its just that kind of a design!

Nope. That's a Mk I 997 Turbo. The wheels are a give away and so is the slightly different bumper.

No offence taken also bro,even i didnt feel like posting that pic cos of the bad clarity. Also i thought its the same as Mr.R's and there are many snaps in this thread of the same car,so better not post. Only when Manish mentioned its not the same,i realised its the newest one

Dude Manish,how the hell ya manage to snap all these beauties? Its difficult for me to spot these,forget taking snaps. And ya coming up with such lovely pics!!!

Anyways here is another Turbo..enjoy

That's a very nice picture Robesh! You just made my day

I was just trying to think of the reasons that Ford Shelby is missing from the scene. I mean it is a great car and is not one of the most expansive cars around. The Ford Shelby is around $50K. It could be a great addition to our Bangalore Car collectors fleet whose cars have been a regular contributor to this thread. I dont know about others but I find this particular a great looker on the road.

Unknownsatan · 17th December 2009, 19:20

Thanks Suhaas

Saw this kinda thing near SSMRV college,Jayanagar at 5.30-6 today evening. NOt sure what it is but it looked a bit like Kawa and sounded like a superbike-a bit too louder though. Couldnt take any pics as i didnt have a cam that time. Anyone got any pics of the same?
MOds: Not sure if its a normal moded bike. Pl move it to respective thread if it is..

Nikhilb2008 · 17th December 2009, 19:29

It looks like one of those bikes which are modified exclusively for straightline speed and drags. The extra long wheelbase is an indication.

Ford Shelby? You mean the Shelby GT500? The man reason why it isn't very popular is because it's mostly available in Left Hand Drive. They can't be homologated for use in India.

I doubt if anyone do it professionally in here and there is hardly any chance that it can be imported after these mod jobs. Chances are high for a moded poser. Anyways, dont give up until you make sure.
