Thats the house i was talking about,
that black lexus is ls460 rite if I'm not wrong, and not SC430 !
Thats Mocha road rite ?
when i went that side, i could only see a part of the RR as it was covered by an Accord which was parked in front of it .

it's an ls430. 460 debuted with the new gen LS.

yes, its the LP640 (note the enhanced exhaust shape & position)... and its TN registered too...

LP640 refers to its engine position "longitudinale posteriore" - and to its power 640 hp

@nickatnite

I pass by the house where the red RR is located everyday... eagerly waiting for the day when i can c it on the road...

Volvo's the official carrier for the Chennai Open, u can c a bunch of XC90s at The Park...

@VIPER_SRT

u would've flipped if i'd posted a pic of the scene across the Cayman's home... Its a typical dusty playground filled to overflowing with the Sunday afternoon cricket enthusiasts and tennis balls flying all over the place, the sixes land all around the Cayman...

I know all those details about the car..just not sure how to recognise it

.

I asked if it was TN regd. cos some cars that are in Chennai are there because it's a port city, and they're waiting to be moved to one of the other South Indian cities

Also the tail-lights are red-coloured in the LP640, unlike the normal Murci. which has multi-coloured tail-lights.

This X5 with Snow flake wheels is from T nagar. Not sure if it has been posted before.

At least half a dozen XC90s are ferrying players between the Park hotel and Tennis Stadium for a week now. Couldn't click any; saw some in the earlier posts.
