Saw it on Church Street a couple of weeks back. Stood there in sheer bliss as he accelerated from Empire junction to Hard Rock junction.

BMW M3 oldie spotted!!!

^^ That is certainly not a M3. Could be a regular 3-Series with the M-kit and badges. Notice the different headlight units/repeaters and the single exhaust-pipe, as opposed to the quad-setup that the E46 M3 used to be fitted with.

Also, the E46 M3 was never available in 4-door trim, as far as I know.

Well, here is a real M (hopefully)

The Italia now sports Innotech exhausts.
Class of a choice

Looks like Bangalore has a horse which doesn't neigh, but ROARS!

Any idea if it's as good as the GTR with Kreissieg exhausts?

Wouldn't be the ideal thing to compare the GTR and the 458 in question. Both cars are very differently engineered, with different engines. That said, the sound of a Ferrari is something no GTR can ever replicate or challenge. Stock GTRs don't sound that great. But stock Ferraris sound like road-going F1 cars.

Saw this BMW X6 today. Looked lovely with that black wheels and spoiler.

True That. Well I'm a Ferrari fanboy. Haven't really had the chance to hear it rev in the 3 times I've seen the 458.

So I'm trying to compare it to the only Sports Car I've ever heard with the pedal down.

Spotted this M3 being enjoyed with its roof down .

I guess even thats not a X6 M,but nice photography.It might be the one with the M Body Kit.Not even sure if there exists a true X6 m in india or not.

BANDHAV · 24th March 2012, 23:15

There is a red one here in Delhi too.

I think this is a real one Redline Shooter, the one keeps shifting between Hyd and Bangy. Have seen few X6 with M kits here in Bangalore itself.
