Am I reading this right? I though the Yuan was like Yen, eleventybillion to one dollar. Just thought this was odd.

Well, an educated worker in urban Shanghai would make about 60k-120k yuan/year.

So yes, if you have 3+ years' salary lying around, you can haz a 300k yuan Mitsubishi Eclipse Race Car.

Compare that with US wages of 40k-80k USD/year and cars that only cost 24k USD...

Do the chinese have federal income tax + state tax + FICA + etc etc tax?

Damn, when I had just a bachelors I probably was making less than a Shanghai urbanite.

they look the same as the 08' two differences less hp and a GSX spoiler. Unless they're coming out with an AWD turbo for 09'.
