The team at Supercar Blondie bought a $9,000 Chinese fake Rolls-Royce Cullinan and pranked a high-end valet at a luxury hotel to see if he could tell it apart from the $450,000 model.
He might have been told that the car in front of him is a new Rolls-Royce, but it doesn’t take a beat before his skepticism is stoked. “What? It looks so different. The size… it doesn’t look like a Rolls-Royce,” he said.
Not only does it not look like an auto from the luxury English car brand, but when he sat behind the wheel, he confirmed that it doesn’t ‘feel’ or sound like one, either.
When asked how much he would pay for it, he confirmed that he wouldn’t buy it at all. When he compares it to the real deal, there’s simply no comparison.
