@unknown- Good pic bro, pretty rare color for pokers !

@aparth- that is a 911 Turbo. Carreras are not Turbo.

Well Unknownsatan I could have taken that brunt of so many bangalore bhpians upon myself cos I also knew about it.
I'm so glad you volunteered for the noble act.
You are a true leader.
By the way, the turbo looks nice, but I suppose the color could have been better.

Will ask IR to change the color

[Just Kiddin]. Infact i couldnt hear the real sound of Turbo that day as he took off very slowly. Pretty cool guy IR is...

Yeah its a bad news...Hopefully some nice snaps will be following soon...

The turbo sure does look amazing .But I don't think the owner has maintained the porsche as it was meant to be. The Blue has lost its shine and the alloy are dirty.
Just my thought.

That's not a 'Carrera Turbo' Aparth. That's a Porsche 997 (Mk I) 911 Turbo. The 911 Carrera is normally aspirated and doesn't have turbos.

The only Carrera to ever nestle a Turbo from the Porsche plant is the '74 Carrera RSR Turbo and it was driven only on the track. Other 'turbocharged' Carreras are all modded cars from the 9ff stable.

EDIT: Nice picture Robesh!

Hi All, Today I spotted a Jaguar XF at Jayanagar 1st Block. Let the pictures speak for itself. Come closer and you can view the scratches too. Moderator, apologies for attaching the pictures earlier with number plate partially blurred.

Sivasankar · 16th January 2010, 22:04

@vsarath - Great pictures of the XF, what camera do you use?

Have always wondered why the headlamps don't fit flush with the bonnet...

blip · 16th January 2010, 22:24

Oh No!! Looks like the jaguar has taken a bad scratch on the front left.

Must be really painful for the owner

Thank you Sivasankar, Camera is Canon S5 IS. Pretty old model. May be the car was good so that the picture looked better.

Anand123 · 16th January 2010, 23:09
