The roads of Beijing are crowded with non-Chinese cars.
In the first six months of 2008, China imported 212,000 vehicles a 53% increase from the same period of last year.
The dollar value increase was even more dramatic. The dollar value hit $7.74 billion, a 71.3%. That tells me that the market is for high-ticket luxury cars.
I have seen a ton of black Audis in Beijing.
