Spotted this BMW 6 series today at Citi Centre.
Thought it was the M6 but, the different exhaust pipes and the missing M badge made me conclude that it's just a 6 series.

As you can see from your picture it is a 640d. Not the M6, but a beast nonetheless.

Spotted a black BMW M6 yesterday evening at Ishpahani center, Nungambakkam. Couldnt take snaps as there were a lot of people out there. It was DL registered

Yes it is.
At first, the roof appeared white due to reflection.
It is his bicolore!

Second, his Gallardo Bicolore near 3M, nungambakkam. The lambo was parallel to my ride for quite some time. So, got a chance to wave at him and he waved back at me!

Supercars & Imports : Chennai-image704615776.jpg

Here you go buddy

Not a supercar, but maybe an import, certainly a curiosity...

I spotted a large, blue saloon car, being driven out of a gate in Thiruvanmiyur. Classic old-fashioned saloon (sedan) lines: long bonnet, long boot.

What was it? The clue is that (unless it was the name of the owner's wife) it had "gloria" on the back. Funny name for a car!

EDIT: answered own question with Google. It seems Nissan made them, for 46 years and I never knew!

Was at a big fat wedding over the weekend. Eyeballed a nice black Bentley Continental and a Jag XJ

Spotted a white PY Reg R8 V10 at Hyatt and a black MH Reg E93 M3 at Hilton last night . Beautiful exhaust notes . I was proud of my City with a HKS end can but they were much louder

. The valet was enjoying the M3 ( I wouldn't trust a valet with a M3 if it was mine though

).
