This HP4, to be more precise, is the BMW HP4RACE. It was officially launched into mass production at the 2017 Shanghai Auto Show, with a global quota of 750 units.
Xia Yu wasn't sure whether it was sold out or not, but he didn't expect to see it on the used car market just a year later.
I checked online and found that the brand new stock was only 80,000 euros at the time, and the one in front of me is only 60,000 euros, which is really the price of a Shanghai A yellow license plate.
Just take it. Track cars can’t be registered with license plates anyway. He can even make money from a license plate!
There is no need to buy a new one. Every classic car is a second-hand car. As long as the car is in good condition and you like it, just buy it.
In addition to this HP4, there are also Ducati's 1299 Superleggera and KTM's RC16, which are all outstanding European motorcycles.
Xia Yu walked and brushed the brush as he went, just like the bully who raided the convenience store when he was a child, and Ji Yang was the bully's follower.
"That's about it for now, let's go eat first!"
After buying five motorcycles in one go, the two men felt a little hungry.
They came in at around 10 o'clock, and it's already 12 o'clock. How can they not be hungry?
Because the address of Klassikstadt was too cheap and there was not much to eat nearby, the two of them could only get some sandwiches and bread at the cafe downstairs, which was fine with coffee.
After filling his stomach, Ji Yang called the agency that helped him handle the shipping matters.
The three Lamborghinis that Xia Yu bought and the undelivered Centenario can be entrusted to Lamborghini's track department, but the motorcycle and the Bugatti Type 35 will have to be shipped back to China by another company.
It just so happened that the company Ji Yang used had the relevant qualifications and could provide race car management services, and Xia Yu was too lazy to look for another one.
The other party agreed to come and pick up the car in the afternoon. The two continued to wander around the factory. Xia Yu also took away the Porsche tractor at the door and a high-quality Porsche 917.
The Porsche 917 sounds very similar to the previous generation 918 model, but in fact it is the big brother of the big brother, the kind that can be ignored if you say you can't hear it.
The 4.5-liter 180-degree horizontally opposed 12-cylinder naturally aspirated engine can easily exceed 580 horsepower. It sounds like the original data of its AMG GTR, but you have to know that this car was launched in 1969, almost 50 years ago!
Last year, a Porsche 917K was sold at the Gooding auction in Pebble Beach for $14.08 million. This was not only the highest-priced 917 on the open market, but also the most expensive Porsche sold on the open market.
Xia Yu's car is not that expensive, only 1.8 million euros, and it also comes with a Porsche tractor. Those that have achieved results in competitions or have been used in movies will have a higher premium.
He just wants to own a Porsche 917. Without the added sentimentality, it would be difficult for him to spend an extra penny.
This is almost all the cars he has bought. Not counting the Lamborghini Centenario for which he has only confirmed his intention to buy, Xia Yu has spent a total of 4.6 million euros today.
His fighting power is a bit worrying. He bought so many but couldn't even get the price of a Bugatti Divo. It's a pity that he prepared so much money!
But it doesn't matter. There are still more than ten days left. They can visit the classic car trading markets in the surrounding countries and maybe they can find a better car.
"Let's go to New York!"
Coming out of the factory in Klassikstadt, Xia Yu waved his hand and said.
"Let's go tomorrow. I'm a little tired."
"You wimp, even Snickers can't save you."
Xia Yu complained mercilessly.
"Nürburgring isn't far from Frankfurt anyway, so let's stay in Frankfurt tonight!"
Ji Yang was right. It was only a little over a hundred kilometers from Frankfurt to the Nürburgring, and it would only take more than half an hour on the highway. There was no need to rush.
"Okay then, let's go into the city and find a place to stay."
The two drove their respective Chirons into the city of Frankfurt, a very distinctive metropolis with a great fusion of classic and modern elements.
Traveling is a good place, but Xia Yu, who lives there permanently, still prefers China.
The place to stay is still the Steigenberger Hotel. After all, it doesn't cost any money, so Xia Yu can be said to have benefited from Ji Yang.
They had originally planned to set off early the next morning, but there happened to be a match between Frankfurt and Bayern Munich the next afternoon, so they decided to stay one more day and watch the game before leaving.
Ji Yang liked watching Yingchao matches when he was studying in Ying Country. Xia Yu knew more about League One from the football novels on Qidian. However, there were not many protagonists in League One because the salary was too low.
It feels pretty good to watch a game live, and it’s even better to have a beer after watching the game. Winning or losing doesn’t matter at all.
The two stayed in Frankfurt until the early morning of the 4th, then hurriedly checked out and rushed to the Nürburgring.
"How about it, Old Ji, are you confident you can score under 7 points today?"
As soon as he got off the highway, Xia Yu started chatting with Ji Yang.
"Forget it, I'll be lucky if I can get under 8 points."
Ji Yang is still very self-aware. No matter how good his car is, he is just an amateur driver. It is difficult for him to make up for the gap with those professional racing drivers. This trip to the Nürburgring is more of a pilgrimage and a form of further study.
"Why are you so unconfident? I was planning to aim for 7 points."
Whether or not a car can run under 7 points is a very important indicator for the Nürburgring, because there are only 6 mass-produced cars that can run under 7 points so far.
However, Xia Yu heard a rumor in Klassikstadt a few days ago that the new generation Lamborghini Aventador SVJ will challenge the Nürburgring record.
