I think he owns a piece of Mitsubishi or has ties with them or something. In a lot of his movies you see him in a Mitsubishi, and was reportedly seen in a done up Montero.

Tinting isn't legal in an awful lot of countries. Don't recall what the deal is in HK, but wouldn't be shocked if they're not tinted because tints are just not available there...

You’d think his daily driver would be a Maybach considering all the money he gets from his movies and businesses.

A maybach doesnt really seem his style though. He seems like he wants to do stuff himself, and being driven around in a maybach is hardly doing it yourself.

Not sure if anyone saw the Top Gear episode wth that Evo, but it actually beat a Murcielago around the track.

Then they raced it in a drag race against some I4 with <100hp and it lost. (They used a 30mph rolling start in top gear to demonstrate how much the turbo lag sucks on the Evo)

i saw it, who race in a rolling start at top gear anyway?? the turbo wont even spool up enough at that low of a RPM.

I remember reading an article that was saying he's big into cars and tracks cars frequently. If that's the case, this doesn't suprise me.

holy hell that's a badass car then. 0-60 in 3.5 is CRAZY. that would give a Ford GT i think a run for the it's money. It would kill a mustang Cobra and even a new Vette Z06(the new generation)
