With a name like that, I can't imagine they'll sell very many in China.

Yup, Inca wheels for sure. I'd definitely go for the 99 Turbo over this (if you could find a decent one, that is).
Whatever you buy, you have to make sure it has a set of those Inca wheels!

True, true, I feel like our quality of automotive journalism pails in comparison to theirs. I always plan to buy a U.S. subscription, but it's somewhere in the neighborhood of $200.
