My business trip in Shanghai

Eugene-TAIWAN · 07-09-2010, 10:25 PM

Well I'm on a business trip in Shanghai and after dinner on my back to my hotel I spotted this car. Looks like it was sitting on the ground. I told my friend to speed up. And I saw the new 458 Italia it was my first time seeing this car infront of my eyes. I must say the car looks very nice in person.

QUESTION: how much is this car in China
ANSWER: after taxes $740,000 USD

made a little clip. the guy never floored it so I didn't get any exhaust notes.

HERE IS CHINA'S YOUTUBE ,

458 is cheap car for some of the 'real' rich people in China
some people there have so much money its scary to think about it, and its 100% in paper cash.

Nice car and nice soundtrack

Eugene-TAIWAN · 07-10-2010, 08:46 AM

Man I wish the guy floored!

he was pussy! I would have floored that shit all the way, no questions asked

Well, one thing I know about China is that they allow cars and houses to be depreciated under the company's title. So long as your company pay enough taxes, you basically get your toys free. But hey, I bet those guys can just buy 'em out straight. After all it's the new California.

so china being a communist country, and everything is shared; should've walked up to him and Said: excuse me, my turn to drive.
