    Maybe it is not yet plated because it still needs a few extra "girly" touches ...

    BTW, if you're wondering about that "SCC" badging on the Lambo ... here's an interesting article about the Beijing "Super Car Club" (presumably she's a member).

    Nice sleuthing, Lao Jia Hou! Looks like Global Times didn't have the guts to show pix of the entire spread. Hardly a surprise, given that they are controlled by the folks who presumably spiked the GQ spread. Imagine what it must have cost to recall and reprint an entire run of a glossy magazine!

    I may stop by a couple of newsmongers today to see if I can find a stray copy!

    See you Wednesday!

    I don't understand what you lot are going on about, if someone offered me a Lambo, even in hot-pink with bling, I would say 'thanks'. And if it had a chauffeuse with high heels and dyed red hair I would be even more grateful and give them half of my soul ... I already sold the first half cheap one night with a 24 yr. old lass when the viagra didn't work.

    What's a "sheila"?


    This "sight" kinda sadens me, putting such a beast of a car, blinged to hell by some new-money classless idiot, in the middle of a country where I'm sure there are millions and millions of people that will never see a Lambo in their life (anf of course, can't even dream of ever owning one).


    Here in Uruguay I never saw one of those, but when I was living in Panama they were kinda "normal" to see. Even less rare than Porsches I'd say.

    I didn't get much of a look, but suffice it to say the car was the head-turner here.

    Here's a bit more coverage of the Lamborghini wedding in Beijing.



    From the Global Times story:

    This picture posted on a Chinese website shows twelve Lamborghinis taking part in a wedding motorcade on Beijing's Chang'an Avenue last Sunday, and was the focus of much online discussion.

    All the drivers of the Lamborghinis heading to the wedding were fined for covering their license plates, a violation of the Chinese Road Traffic Safety Law, the local traffic police confirmed Thursday.

    Chinese Internet users called the Lamborghinis "the most gorgeous wedding cars ever."

    "These are the most luxurious wedding limos I've ever seen," a bystander said.

    The cars belong to a car club but the owners did not wish to reveal their identity.

    One Beijing car salesman said that the most expensive model pictured in the procession is the Lamborghini LP670-4SV, which is worth 7.5 million yuan ($1.1million).

    A wedding planning company said it charges 12,000 yuan ($1,766) to rent a Lamborghini for 4 hours.
    I've found some more images of the great event, and that blingy pink Lambo makes an appearance. Check out THIS THREAD on pistonheads.com.

    Here are a couple of images...



    I'm guessing the owner of the pink car is one of the orange-haired bazillionaires in this image, probably the one in pink...



    And this familiar suspect...
