We've seen all kinds of crazy cars in China, but we've never seen one quite like special. No, it's not pink, but it might as well be, because there's definitely something wrong with the Merc in this photo.
Under that shiny chrome purple exterior is a heart of AMG, pushing the uber-C to the sound of 6.2 liters' worth of V8 engine. What was until recently the cheapest AMG model you could buy is actually a very expensive car in China, where taxation on big engined cars is very high.

Considering it probably cost as much as a Ferrari, this C63 AMG deserves to flaunt its looks with a chrome wrap. The purple vinyl is of very good quality and has been applied carefully to every detail on the car.

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.
