One of Rolls Royce boss Torsten Muller-Otvos' most memorable auto show moments came last year in Beijing when a man walked through the crowd to the carmaker's stand and set down a suitcase.
"Millions of renminbi," the man said of the suitcase's contents, referring to the Chinese currency. "Really, that was amazing. He bought a Phantom," Muller-Otvos said.
The Rolls Royce chief executive told AFP no cash buyers had come forward yet at the ongoing Shanghai auto show, but the exhibition has provided further proof for luxury car-makers that their future is in China.2011 New York Auto Show Photo GalleryNew York Auto Show Preview Photo Gallery2012 Audi A7 USA Model Photo GalleryLexus LF-Gh Concept Photo Gallery2012 Audi Q3 Photo GalleryAutoSpies.com Photo GalleriesIf you want to see your photos running on our homepage photo ticker, be sure to upload your photos on the go by sending them to Mobile@AutoSpies.com Share on Facebook
