Slightly off topic, but I have had to go through random security checks where they want to see inside your car and such and I always pop the hood and as soon as I do, they quickly say I didn't need to do that. I walk forward and as I say, "oh but I do" I lift the hood open and the guards reactions are priceless. I am like, "just helping you out, keep an eye for these cars cause they have storage in the front too!"
Thankfully the security guards are good fun with it since they have seen me go through there many times. I think the "random" check is not so random... Haha!
Cross boarder plates run anywhere from 700,000rmb from a boarder crossing farther out of town from Shenzhen to 1.3mil for ones with Wenjindu or Futian access. And they aren't giving them out anymore. Only existing ones being traded via sales of a company. We just had to buy 2. Not for a tesla, sadly.
Hundreds of imported Model S in Tianjing port. See the pictures in the link.

Well guess we know where all the cars went, haha! That's some great photos and that is a great find!
Did they give a number? I can see 3 rows of about (my estimate) 50 cars each in these picture. Please keep us up to date if there is any news on movement on this lot.

LUMP, I posted the same/similar question this morning on the 'short term' thread. The comments I received (esp one from Maoing) indicated that the Chinese can swap plates from one car to the next AND the temporary plates they get with a delivered car can be extended for a fee for months. Consumers in China have taken delivery (paid TM) but are waiting to see if the government is going to give them a tax break when they ultimately put 'real' plates on the cars.
