Most people don’t realize the extent to which the luxury and ultra-luxury car market in China
has grown over the years. Did you know China is Bentley’s 2nd largest market worldwide? And did you know
Mercedes-Benz sold more S-Class cars this year in China than Europe or Japan? Ok, true, China does have like 1.3
billion people…but that’s besides the point.
Anyway, the point was further illustrated a couple of days ago when a mysterious man walked into the Beijing Asia
Games Village Auto Mall and bought China’s one and only copy of the Pagani Zonda — with a whopping 7 million RMB
($864,000)…looks like the C in PRC should really stand for Capitalism nowadays.
