THROWBACK to the time we first learned about the Buddh International Circuit in Noida. When we read articles about how the Indian Grand Prix would be the arrival of our nation on the world stage. About how one Sebastian Vettel smiled on the podium and how the teary-eyed petrolheads of India watched history being written. The track seemed like holy ground, which I would soon be zipping over, on a sports car of my dreams – the Porsche 911.

When you first look at the 2020 Porsche 911, you could be awestruck or relieved, depending on how unfamiliar or how loyal you have been to 911s. That’s because it hasn’t changed dramatically. I remember the 911 scale version that I’d twiddle with, between my little fingers as a child. That familiar nose, the slopes I’d learn to trace, and the lights (I loved them. Still do). That’s the part that made me heave a sigh of satisfaction when I walked along the length of this legend. With the ample grandeur of the Buddh Circuit as the backdrop, it looked nothing short of a pinup poster in real life.
