Ferrari spotted in China - Not really, its fake.

China Car Times spotted this Ferrari (or Porsche), from the sea (we were out snorkeling) it looked like the real deal, except the closer we got, the super rare Ferrari started to fall to bits. Up close, its certainly ‘interesting’! The body work is fiberglass with the odd extra stud here and there (for dramatic effect), the rims certainly are not original Ferrari designs but rather borrowed from elsewhere. The interior was nothing to write home about either, the handbrake was a mere stick, as was the gearstick. The center console was a sticker!

You’re probably wondering ‘Whats the point of this?‘ Well, the car (actually, just a shell on fixed axles that can be rotated on the spot) belongs to a wedding photography studio. You see, many a young Chinese couples would love to have a real classic Ferrari to sit in whilst they have their wedding photos taken overlooking dramatic mountains and sea scenes, but it just isn’t possible, hence the fiberglass mock up.

snorkeling? in that algae?

I asked Ash before about luxury cars in China, and I’m still curious. I know in Shangai/Beijing I’ve seen Ferraris/Rolls etc. where can I find out something about their real numbers?
