Was going to say the same myself. That is a top quality looking machine (even though I hate white cars and think it should be reserved for Police cars or GT3RS) and the roof scoop makes it, much like the red one that comes to my tennis club.

It's a racquet. Reduce your backswing. HTH.

550 Maranello...

What an absolute beauty! Blue really suits it, too.

Looks like a fake kinda blue though slightly doesn't it ??

Looks very similar to an old vauxhall nova color called breeze blue, and also a shade of blue available for the fiat coupe turbo.

It is lovely and very different

More rare than super:

Beautiful

....but isn't the front wheel arch gap unnaturally large even considering it's on a lift? How has that got so much suspension travel? ...and if working on the suspension, why is the wheel still on?

Just puzzled.

It's on a four post ramp, the wheels are not supported.

Here are a couple of rare sightings from around Beijing. More of these can be found on my account on Instagram - Rare_Cars_China

The only Alfa SZ and Integrale in the country:


One of only a handful of legacy Evos somehow brought into the country - this one a LHD-converted Evo 5 RS, unfortunately left abandoned near my place since summer:


A V8-engined Phaeton Poltrona-Frau edition:


The Red-Flag Century Star, a weird evolution of the Audi 100 (China's first locally-produced Joint-Venture luxury car), with a 2 liter V6 Nissan Engine stuffed in:


China has the highest number of 991s sold in Limegold in the world:

If that was left in the UK for that amount of time I would be a bare shell or long gone!

Is crime not that bad in China?

I spent about a month in China and the most interesting car I saw was a locally produce copy of an Austin Maestro.

Saw these two at a hotel in Dubai last week. The black one was in bare carbon and had a blue tint to the lacquer, looked amazing in the sun!

[Piers_K]

IIRC.. A carbon body with a blue tinted lacquer was a 225K option...

[Rubymurray]

Ouch! Looks pretty good close up

Quarter of a million for colour is steep even by silly car standards.
