In spite of not having proper infrastructure for sports cars in India, the demand for them is growing rapidly. Spotting low slung 2-door exotics is not a big deal nowadays, at least in metro cities. Earlier, people used to import sports cars privately by paying heavy duties because very few premium brands were available in the country. Now Indians have access to almost every performance centric brand and the second hand sports car market is also getting quite popular. We have prepared a list of sports cars expected to land in India in 2016.
