    I'm coming to Hong Kong for 6 months to study. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a few places to pass through to catch a glimpse of some fine exotics. Also, any ideas on where to visit would be awesome.

    Thanks,
    Rob

    I do not live in Hong Kong but I have been there last year in June. The Peninsula Hotel is a good place to spot exotics such as Lamborghinis and RRs. Shangri-La Kowloon and Island Shangri-la are famous for our Favourites such as Ferraris, Lambos and Porsches. Also go to the streets in Kowloon. You can definitely spot lots of exotics there. In 3-4 hours on the streets, I can spot 2 Ferrari 355 berlinettas, Nissan Skylines, Bentley Continental GT, Porsches. Hong Kong is a GREAT place to spot exotics. There are more than 3000 exotics there. Go to www.exoticspotter.com and go to Search by Location and type in Hong Kong. Within your 6 months there, I can safely say that you will see more than 100 exotics. Remember to post photos!
    If you are looking for places to go, The Peak is a must. Mongkok (night market) is also great. Roam arond the Streets too! Ocean Park is also a must.
    Shopping: Harbour Plaza. I saw a black Diablo zooming around there.
    The most common cars there are:
    1. old RRs
    2. Bentley Arnage
    3. Bentley Continental
    4.Ferrari 360s
    5.Lambo Murcielagos
    6.Lambo Gallardos
    8.Ferrari F430s
    9.Porsche Carreras
    Have Fun there!

    Anywhere central on HK Island will be good for spotting exotics on the street, however if you want to see some true greats actually getting driven then try Luk Keng.

    It is a meet out in the New Territories very early on a Sunday morning. It starts about 7.30am and on the occasion I visited there was a Pagani Zonda, Ferrari F50 and a whole stack of Lambos, Ferraris, Porsches and others. That is a normal weekend too, they get Carrera GTs, Zondas, Ferraris and even a McLaren F1 from time to time.

    Some of the guys on this board attend regularly and if you do a search through my old threads, they are all there from the time I came to HK. T

    here is also a HK photo thread with all the exotics I saw if you have a search for Luk Keng in the search function :D

    Italian Motors Sales & Service showrooms, IFC Mall B4 parking level, most 5 star hotels, on the streets in Central or TST, or the Sunday morning drives. They are basically everywhere.

    the bridges over the roads in central are great for pics. i spent a total of a week there and stopped taking pics of 360's and Gallardo's because they were everywhere!

    are you studying at UHK?

    Hi Rob, Luk Keng is fantastic. You never know what you will see but there's always something special. PM me and we'll go up in the 348 for a look see.
    Cheers, Mike .
