    What are you driving and why?

    Currently, I enjoy driving my Toyota Supra (Mk4)occasionally. I don’t drive it much, as it belongs more on a drag strip than the streets. I also have a BMW M3 (E46), as it is one of the most fun-to-drive M cars and it’s a perfect modern classic too. I also own the V10-powered BMW M5 (E60), which is an experience in itself.

    What’s next on your wish list?

    A BMW M4.

    The most fun you’ve had in a car?

    In a Mazda RX-7 while cruising down the Bandra-Worli Sea Link. The rotary engine was a blast!

    Favourite / Dream money no object car?

    A 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, as it’s the car that inspired me to get into this hobby.

    Who is your all-time greatest motorsport hero?

    Ayrton Senna.

    Favourite road?

    Any road where you can legally drive at 250kph plus.

    What’s on your automotive bucket list?

    To build a 1,000hp Supra.

    What would you do with your last litre of fuel?

    Put it in my M5 and hear the V10 engine roar for one last time.

    Your ideal 5-car garage would be?

    Toyota Supra (Mk4)

    Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34)

    Mercedes C 63 AMG (W204)

    Ferrari F430

    BMW M3 (E46)

    What was your first car?

    It was a Premier 118NE that I spent my college life in.

    Yes, it could give new life to a slow-selling car

     

    13.66%

    Yes, but only if there are significant changes

     

    32.15%

    No, it's confusing and dilutes the brand name
