上個(gè)月,中國一年一度的GT Show重返上海以西的蘇州國際博覽中心。
我平時(shí)并沒有太多機(jī)會(huì)體驗(yàn)如此大規(guī)模的中國改裝汽車展覽,但由于這是我第一次參觀GT展,說實(shí)話,我不知道概期待些設(shè)么。而現(xiàn)在,可以肯定地說,我驚呆了。




對(duì)于那些可能不了解的人來說,中國在改裝車輛方面有嚴(yán)格的規(guī)定。即使添加像擾流板這樣簡(jiǎn)單的東西也會(huì)被認(rèn)為是非法的。然而,許多愛好者仍然努力展示他們的創(chuàng)造力,這在展示的各種車型中得到了反映。

考慮到中國在上世紀(jì)八九十年代汽車行業(yè)尚處于起步階段,你在中國的道路上看不到很多那個(gè)時(shí)代的特殊汽車。GTshow卻帶來了不少,而且無疑是最好的那一批。



我在展覽上看到了至少五輛RWB改裝的保時(shí)捷,每一臺(tái)都風(fēng)格迥異。





其中第五輛車以經(jīng)典的保時(shí)捷917/20粉豬為靈感,但它并沒有止步于此。這一設(shè)計(jì)也被用于定制一雙RWB鞋,還有一輛卡車。


我們都在網(wǎng)上看過那些令人敬畏的CG渲染的RWB風(fēng)格大眾甲殼蟲,但這里有一臺(tái)已經(jīng)被帶入了現(xiàn)實(shí)。


我一開始并不理解為什么這么多人圍在這臺(tái)鈴木奧拓的引擎蓋前,知道我親自繞到了車前。沒錯(cuò),這臺(tái)K-Car里塞了一臺(tái)奔馳的V12引擎!


姿態(tài)改裝在中國很熱門。不少改裝者偏向于選用當(dāng)代車型。寬體版的Tesla Modle3在這里隨處可見。



中國的汽車愛好者明顯受到了日本汽車文的感染,比如說經(jīng)典的VIP風(fēng)格。

說到日本汽車文化,這輛閃亮的卡車略顯“收斂”的暴走族風(fēng)格絕對(duì)值得一提。這是飲料品牌1087X的促銷工具。有趣的是,“1087”恰恰是中國警方對(duì)非法改裝車輛的識(shí)別碼。




GT車展主要關(guān)注的是改裝汽車,但超級(jí)跑車也有機(jī)會(huì)。在我的旅途中,我看到了一輛梅賽德斯-奔馳SLS,一輛配有GTR套件的邁凱輪P1,一輛配有LB套件的蘭博基尼Aventador,以及一輛法拉利FF。據(jù)說還有一輛邁凱輪塞納(McLaren Senna),有著醒目的包裝,但不幸的是,在我到達(dá)之前,它已經(jīng)離開了秀場(chǎng)。



這臺(tái)GT3組別的阿斯頓馬丁同樣值得你的關(guān)注。



這臺(tái)拉力風(fēng)格的保時(shí)捷986是一個(gè)獨(dú)特的展品,吸引了大量的關(guān)注,但它不是展會(huì)上唯一的越野建展車。吉普rubicon和角斗士以及福特猛龍的身影隨處可見,這一細(xì)分市場(chǎng)在中國越來越受歡迎。


GT車展讓我感受到了多元而快速發(fā)展的中國汽車文化。盡管法律對(duì)改裝汽車有限制,但愛好者們?nèi)匀恢铝τ诔珜?dǎo)改裝汽車的合法化,并表現(xiàn)出他們的叛逆精神。未來可期!
網(wǎng)友云:




我原以為這在中國是違法的,但我很高興社讓這成為可能政府
讀到標(biāo)題讓我想起了成龍的電影《霹靂閃電》,那是一部關(guān)于警察如何打擊非法改裝汽車的電影,非常有趣的是,情況是完全相反的。

Last month, China’s annual GT Show returned to the Suzhou International Expo Centre in the city of Suzhou,?west of Shanghai.
There aren’t too many opportunities?to indulge in Chinese modified car culture at such a large scale, but since this was my first visit to the GT Show, to be honest, I didn’t know what to expect.?Now that I’ve been, it’s safe to say my mind was blown.
For those who may not be aware, China has strict regulations when it comes to modifying vehicles. Even adding something as simple as a spoiler can be considered illegal. However, many enthusiasts still strive to showcase their creativity, and that was something reflected in the sheer variety of customisation?on show.
Given the country’s hard economic times back in the 1980s and ’90s, you don’t see many special cars from this era on the road in China. There are obviously some around though, and the GT Show brought out the best.
I counted no less that five RAUH-Welt Begriff creations at the event, each with?its own unique?look.
The fifth car featured a classic Porsche 917/20 Pink?Pig-inspired livery?– but it didn’t stop there. The design?was also used on a?custom pair of RWB shoes, and?a truck too.
We’ve all seen those awesome CG renders of RWB-inspired old school Volkswagen Beetles, but here’s one that has been brought to life.
I wondered why so many people were crowded around the engine bay of this crazy Suzuki Alto.But seeing the kei car from the front, it all made sense. Yes, that is a Mercedes-Benz V12.
Stance style is quite popular in China,?with late-model base cars the choice of most modifiers. The wide-body Tesla Model 3 was receiving a lot of attention.
Chinese enthusiasts are greatly influenced by the Japanese modifying scene, and that extends to bippu (VIP) style.
Speaking of Japanese car culture, this shiny truck modified in a mild dekotora style is definitely worth a mention. It’s a promotional tool for the drink brand 1087X. Interestingly, ‘1087’ is the Chinese police code number for an illegally modified?vehicle.
The GT Show primarily focuses on modified cars, but supercars?get a look in too. During my visit, I spotted?a Mercedes-Benz?SLS, McLaren P1 with a GTR kit, a Lamborghini Aventador with a Liberty Walk kit, and a Ferrari FF. There was also a McLaren Senna?with an eye-catching wrap, but unfortunately it had left the show before I arrived.
The lifted safari-style Porsche 986 was a unique concept that?attracted plenty of?attention, but it wasn’t the only off-road build at the show. There were numerous Jeep Rubicons and Gladiators, as well as Ford Raptors present, showing the rising popularity of this segment in China.
The GT Show?gave me a taste of the?diverse and fast-growing Chinese car culture. Despite the legal restrictions on modified cars, enthusiasts remain committed to advocating for their legalization and demonstrating their rebellious spirit. Watch this space.
