Wrap Workz Hong Kong recently had a go at making the modern day Barbie car… from China. Obviously, no self-respecting woman from the People's Republic would ever drive a "People's Car" so you can forget about the VW Beetle. It's got to be something with real class, something expensive.
The obvious choice is a Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe, a cheaper model with a four-cylinder engine, like the C250. After all, we don't want to anger the government officials with too much power and performance.
The wrappers from Hong Kong have covered this German coupe in Hexis gloss pink vinyl to make the car look a little bit like a flamingo. It's got metallic tint and has been matched with white wheels and a bling-bling key fob.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
