A Chinese man who drives a public bus for a living has become a social media celebrity after he was spotted driving luxury cars to his work.
According to local news site Netease, the unidentified bus driver from Taiyuan, Shanxi, Northern China, proudly parades his two supercars – he drives either a Blue Audi R8 or a Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo to work.

 

The Chinese man is also a member of a luxury car club in the local town.

 

The current price of a Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo ranges from US$200,000 – 300,000 (PhP 9 to 14 million) while an Audi R8 can be purchased around US$140,000-160,000 (PhP 6.5 – to 7.4 million).

 

According to Chinese news site Shanghaiist, Chinese netizens on social media site Weibo had mixed reactions to the bus driver’s flashy and extravagant lifestyle.

 

Weibo users were baffled on how the bus driver managed to own two flashy vehicles while earning a minimum wage. Some users speculated that the bus driver might have won millions in a lottery while a lot of users expressed their anger, calling on the bus driver to resign and offer his job to a less-fortunate person.

 

According to reports, a notable number of luxury car shops are sprouting in Taiyuan, attracting ‘tuhao’, or Chinese elite, in the area. Gianna Francesca Catolico/rga
