Salman Khan's Suzuki Hayabusa

This is the latest addition to Salman's superbike collection.The Hayabusa comes in soon after Salman bought himself a limited edition Intruder M1800Z.
The legendary Black Hayabusa was gifted to Salman Khan by Atul Gupta, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd. (SMIPL) and Anu Anamika, National Head – Marketing, SMIPL, as a token of their appreciation for a favourable response flowing in since Salman was signed up as their brand ambassador.
The Suzuki Hayabusa (or GSX1300R) is a sport bike motorcycle made by Suzuki since 1999. It immediately won acclaim as the world's fastest production motorcycle, with a top speed of 188 to 194 miles per hour (303 to 312 km/h).
Hayabusa is Japanese for "peregrine falcon", a bird that often serves as a metaphor for speed due to its vertical hunting dive, or stoop, speed of 180 to 202 miles per hour (290 to 325 km/h), the fastest of any bird.In particular, the choice of name was made because the peregrine falcon preys on blackbirds, which reflected the intent of the original Hayabusa to unseat the Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird as the world's fastest production motorcycle.Eventually, the Hayabusa managed to surpass the Super Blackbird by at least a full 10 miles per hour (16 km/h).

Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar's Nissan GT-R Egoist


The Nissan Egoist is a special edition of the GT-R and this is the first and only one in India. Sachin reportedly traded his Ferrari to acquire this car. The Ferrari was in news when it was gifted to him by none other than Michael Schumaker.
The GT-R is one of the greatest supercars ever made and comes at an amazingly low price which is made possible by Nissan's mass production techniques. It can be appreciated if we consider the fact that GT-R is being compared with cars costing 2-3 times the GT-R to even those costing 15 times.
This car would cost approximately over a crore in India.

Mammootty's Jaguar XJ

Nothing more to tell about Mammootty's cars. Everyone knows about his craze for cars as well as the cars in his collection.
The Jaguar XJ is the name of a series of flagship, full-size, luxury cars sold by the British automobile company, Jaguar.  The XJ line has had a long history, with the first model released in 1968. The original model was the last Jaguar saloon to have had the input of Sir William Lyons, the company's founder, and the model has been featured in countless media and high profile appearances.  The current Jaguar XJ was launched in 2009. It is one of the official cars of the royal families and UK Prime Minister.
In keeping with Ian Callum's new design direction for Jaguar, it is an all-new exterior design and a break from the XJ series mould carried over on all previous generations. It is a longer, wider car that looks much bigger than its predecessor.The front has clear links with the executive car XF, although with slimmer, sleeker lights and a larger, squarer grille and more aggressive appearance. The rear is the contentious part, like nothing Jaguar has shown before. The upright, swooping taillights, nicknamed 'cat's claws', and black roof panels each side of the rear screen, which aim to hide the XJ's width, are the most striking aspects. There is also a standard full-length sunroof, that extends all the way back with just a single body-coloured roof panel that the designer likens to bridges on yachts.
