No no, purota bhul. Kolkata ranks 3rd, after Mumbai and Delhi. There are 9 SLS Amgs(fastest car of Mercedes), 1 Lamborghini Gallardo, 1 Ferrari, 1 Dodge Viper, 18 Rolls Royace Ghosts, 5 Porche 911s, 13 Audi R8s and a few Rolls Royace Phantoms. Bad luck, Bugati Veyron, the 3rd fastest car(earlier the fastest), isn't there in Kolkata, but is in Hyderabad.
Please do not spread info which is absolutely baseless and completely wrong.There are huge number of car enthusiasts all over India who track the number of supercars everywhere day-in and day-out.So please,they are tons of places where you can check out what cars are there in which city.

The sale of "Supercars" is very ambiguous and it is never tracked officially by anyone.Thats because a lot of these cars are direct imports,imports through official dealerships or even grey-market imports.Just for reference maybe cars that say cost above 1 crore in value has certainly increased in Calcutta over the last 5 years or so.That could not just mean supercars,it can mean cars like a Range Rover Vogue or a well-specced out S-Class and so on.Its nowhere near Delhi and Mumbai though.

Delhi and Mumbai are in an different league when it comes to cars sold above 1 crore.They are both very evenly spaced out,Mumbai though has more rarer and exclusive examples.Delhi leans a bit towards luxury.
Hyderabadi's agan prefer luxury over more sporty cars while Bangalore loves its sports car.Chennai is somewhere in between.
Pune is also a big market.Followed by Kerela,Kolkata and Ahmedabad.

No SLS AMGs in Kolkata,no Doge Vipers.
There are 2 Gallardo's not 1.
5 Ferrari's,2 Ghosts,4 911s and 1 Phantom.

There is a list actually,will post it.

Veyron sales are just stories.Everybody seems to have claimed to see it,but not one pic till now.And this is over 3-4 yrs of claiming to see Veyrons.All Veyron pics in India were that of the demo car which toured Delhi,Mumbai and Hyderabad.

The 2 cars in Hyd which are talking about was supposedly owned by Mr Reddy of Deccan Chronicles.Thats the reason why the Demo car was got to Hyd so that he can test drive it.None have been spotted till now,and he had cancelled his Aventador and Koenigsegg bookings as well.Eitherways he went belly-up sometime back and have sold majority of his cars,including almost all his Bentleys.

After a year of silently following this forum,i join hereon.
Firstly to answer India Rulz ude,its great to see that you are a car fanatic like me & do keep track of such lovely Machines,the link provided by u is very informative at the same time its a bit distractive too,so please dont judge by the pictures instead go through the forum thoroughly & you will know,to a layman it might look like there is a SLS AMG & Maybach 57 & 62S in town.But the reality is these rides came to Calcutta during the Mercedes Benz Star Drive event, to showcase them to a few perspective owners,But unfortunately all these rides found no takers & had returned back to Delhi where this SLS was sold.So currently there is no SLS in town though there is a G55 AMG(not this white 1,but a black 1).Hope i have cleared the air.

Those are pics from last year's "Star Drive" event where the SLS and Maybach were showcased. As the cars could not be sold in Kolkata, they were taken back.

The list posted by avishar is the most detailed and comprehensive, regarding the existing supercars in Kolkata. Please read the full articles on T-bhp or KCF to know more about these cars.

1 SLS was bought as a part of Star Drive event.Along with 2 Maybachs.The Maybachs and the SLS were showcased to potential clients but none were sold.That SLS and Maybachs have toured most of the major cities.

Thanks everyone,but i just merely copy pasted and edited a bit.

@Studd Correct!
