Life in the fast lane

Editor's note: Lu Yi, 30, manages a Beijing car dealership and is a member of Beijing Supercar Club.
When I was younger, I studied in New Zealand. I got the chance to drive many sports cars there, including a Mazda RX-7, BMW M3, BMW X5 and Jaguar XKR.
As soon as I got back to China, I decided to buy a limited edition Ferrari 575M GTC. The car is a true classic. I had posters of the Ferrari 575M GTC on my wall when I was a boy.
After I bought the car, I would sit in my garage and just stare at it for hours. I couldn't believe I really owned it.
It's like secretly being in love with a girl for 10 years and then suddenly, one day, she's yours.
The great thing about the Beijing Supercar Club is that other members share the same passion for cars. We have shared interests and similar lifestyles, so it's easier for us to all hang out together. We relate.
We hold parties and dinners, and we also go to car shows. At the Auto China 2010 event in Beijing in April, club members took 60 supercars that outshined the actual exhibits. It was an interesting parking lot.
And you should have seen my wedding fleet when I got married in August this year. Friends from the club came driving the top brands; Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini, Ferrari, they were all there.
It was amazing and I didn't have to spend a penny.
