The Zonda R is just nuts on the track!

The Veyron fly by is so quiet compared to the Zonda R

the Aston is pretty cool, but its over the top in real life

Not very good. An associate pro driver, Brian Wong, drove it. Was not impressed. It needs a lot of work. He was driving the Zonda R also.

Interestingly, all 4 Zonda's were owned by 1 person. Who also owned a Veyron and a bunch of cars in 1 garage section.

Stealing company ideas from around the world and making fakes of them is big money.

Aw, thats disappointing. It so looks the part. Love the sidepods.

ha! there's a Shelby/Ford Mustang, they usually don't care for American performance cars. You have to special order Mustangs and Corvettes there.

OMG! This is insane.
The part that makes it even more insane is if they live in China and bought the cars, there is a 3.5X mark-up for imports. A base Porsche Cayenne Turbo is $345,000! Do the math

I heard since China joined WTO they reduced that tax mark-up(as part of the agreement with other imported goods) to 20~30% or something.

Here is a video of that event I saw on StreetFire:
Bugatti, Zonda, Agera & More @ Shanghai Supercar Meeting
Lon, maybe you can embed the video to your original post
