Wealth on Display: Hong Kong Street Sightings
Thursday, April 14, 2011 at 1:06PM
Hong Kong is a place with fabulous wealth concentrated in the hands of a select few. Thankfully, many of those select few have some pretty cool cars, and like to drive them around the city.
On a trip to Hong Kong last year, I snapped some car shots evocative of the city. I love how exotic cars offer a fantastic accent to the visual clutter of urban settings. You don't realize how special some cars are until you see them in a crowded urban context! Click the pics to see the entire gallery! Or click HERE.

Ironically the first time I saw a (then brand spanking new) 997 Turbo was when I was walking the streets of downtown Seoul. It was also the first time I saw an Enzo sitting in a two story Ferrari dealer.
I agree completely that supercars really come alive when they're out on the streets and not in the sterile auto show/concourse environment. Especially for something like a 360, which never really shines when it's parked on a lawn full of top-dollar automobiles, but looks stunning in the midst of delivery vans, potholes, and scaffolding. Also, those Toyota vans are the business.
Yeah the Toyota vans were one of my favorite things I saw there. Like a night club on wheels.
Kinda reminds me of Miami.
