I think this is cool, looks like he got the entire Tom's catalog on it, except the wheels. You rarely see this in real life.

I would think Tribeca/SoHo area would be considered the best areas no?

Regardless, So many nice cars! On about par with Dubai for seeing exotics.

No way, Dubai is way more hardcore. Millions+ cars are everywhere in Dubai, I don't think they have high registation tax and oil money is no joke. Veyrons are everywhere in Dubai. I have yet see a Veyron on the street of HK.

I'm going to Hong Kong this weekend for a week... where's the best place(s) to go "exotic car watching"? Or does anyone know of any car events going on in the next week or so? Thanks!

That white 3GS is SO sexy. Man, you never see that in the U.S, maybe only at car meets but even that's rare.

i don't know where exactly, but if you hang around ifc / central area and also happy valley, you will run into exotics. i always see them. especially at night time, traffic less and then come out to really enjoy driving

honestly, when i go back i put up mask (not gas mask, but medical mask) sometimes just to block out the dust and other crap
