Haha yeah. I'm actually considering taking a $200 USD loss and just submitting my forms from here. I'm not sure when the next time I can actually travel back is but I'd love to live there one day

I always loved travelling from Diamond Hill to the Airport since you pass by the exotic dealerships on the way there (unless my Uncle purposely took that route). You see many of them parked outside and whatnot to show off. Lots of eyecandy in a concentrated area thats for sure

If you can afford an exotic car in Hong Kong or Singapore, you probably live in a serious mansion, with a serious garage. But in Hong Kong, outside of an assigned space in the basement of a fancy business locale, where could one park? LOL And on the Kowloon side, I think I'd rather take a taxi.

I like to see those cameras in Spore, where if your bumper is an inch over the stop line, you get a huge ticket. In China, well, if you want to see how soon somebody can wreck your car, bring a stopwatch.

The way I judge it is, everything that I can find park in front of my local Ralphs is a regular exotics: 355/360/430/458/599, gallardo/murcielago/Diablo, 911 Turbo, GT3 RS.

I saw a guy loading groceries in front of Costco into his GT3 RS 4.0 the other day. I never seen any Carrera GT, 959, Enzo, Zonda, Reventon, Veyron picking up groceries

Folks in the U.S. have much higher pay, similar housing cost.

Yes folks in HK have more savings because Americans blow money like crazy.

This is not the case for most people in HK. The majority of people in HK live in public estates where the rent is less expensive when compared with paying the mortgage. As the result, people living public estates are much more easy to accumulating the wealth. I even heard someone owning a RR
Phantom living in the public estate in Tseung Kwan O

PS: I was estate boy in HK either

So 沈嘉偉 drove one of his cheapest car to hang out with his friend, I guess he does have to park it on the street unattended.
