Is that a Huracan?
That is a Huracan Performante. It was delivered a few months ago, definitely not new to the city.

I could only manage to click a picture of this blue R8 and the wrangler.As I am typing this post,another set of supercars are going passing by at high speeds.I can hear only V10 sounds presuming it to be huracans or R8s.I cannot take pictures now as it is too dark.One of the best spotting days since giro 2016.

Naturally Aspirated, analogue (relatively) and extremely desirable! No School like the Old School! The greatest hits of the noughties!

Personally, I'd take the atmospheric V8 Super Sedan over the other one.

Re: Supercars & Imports : Bangalore

Spotted this Nissan Skyline R-34 GT-T (RB25DET)

Accompanied it till Cash Pharmacy Residency Road. That straight-six engine + HKS Exhaust makes one of the best engine/exhaust-notes in the business! The anti-lag was

I spotted this car the same night i guess. It had a nice stance, however could have done with better rims IMO.

On the topic of Skylines, does anyone know where is the silver/grey R34 GTR right now? (To the best of my knowledge, there is only 1 grey R34 in India. correct me if i am wrong) The early photos were shared in another thread. It had a temp registration plate back then if i can recollect it correctly.

That car is still inside Jayem Automotives premises in Coimbatore IIRC. Some say that the owner who is based out of Delhi had sent the car for general service and never bothered to collect back the car. Some say the car visited Jayem for routine service from Sri Lanka or Bangladesh (where the JDM car scene is quite good) and it never went back. Some say the car belongs to the owner of Jayem Automotives itself. Since the owner is into motorsports and already owns a couple of nice cars in his garage, I kind of believe the third story.

Not sure what is the real story behind this !

Also, heard a 'story' that the owner is not interested in getting the car back on roads since it's an illegal import! Hope that's not the case.

Re: Supercars & Imports : Bangalore

Spotted this Lamborghini Urus on my way to work in Electronics City today at 10:30 AM.
To be honest, it was not a crowd puller, looked ordinary in the traffic.

This is a daily driver, it was one of the first Urus' that were sold here. Its usually in the area called neotown in electronic city, must be a builder's car.

The owner is someone who is in the knows. He isn't a builder, he runs an engineering company that manufactures engine components for a multiplicity of automobile companies including the likes of Ducati, Harley and Maserati. The person using the Urus is an elderly gentleman and while the car is usually chauffeur-driven, he seems to enjoy every bit of it. The car does intercity runs regularly and has been seen in Chennai often.

Spot on, he's a true motorhead and had some of the best and drool worthy cars in the past. I reckon his previous car was a Porsche Cayenne. I did see an LH370 in his home a short while back, wondering if that is his as well. A very modest, simple, friendly and approachable uncle he. Indeed if not one of the early Urus in Bangalore, his was probably the first in Bangalore and mind you, it is loaded to the hilt. On a separate note A.K, Im quite impressed with your knowledge of the supercar owners in Bangalore.

He still has the Porsche Cayenne and the Lexus RX350h. His was the third Urus to be delivered in the city if I remember right and that shade looks fabulous under the sun. And thank you !

I suppose this is the same Urus that had a minor - annoying issue at the time of delivery and Lamborghini Bangalore couldn't figure it out / rectify it.

As it turns out, it was a sensor issue and Lamborghini Bangalore had requested the owner to keep it at their service center for a week to figure it out, but the owner had had enough and got it rectified "elsewhere" within a day!
