FAW Red Flag – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nBeijing-based First Auto Works has long been the provider of the official transportation for the hierarchy of the People’s Republic of China. Back in the 1950s, FAW started off building a localized version of the standard Soviet parade car, and over the past half century, they have evolved. FAW has also built licensed stretched sedans based on Audi<\/a> and Lincoln<\/a> vehicles. <\/p>\n

Here at the Beijing Motor Show<\/a>, FAW is showing off a new limo that is a modern interpretation those original models from the 1950s, but with a greenhouse and door array that looks more like a contemporary Rolls-Royce Phantom<\/a>. We couldn’t find any press materials written in English, but we have reason to believe that this machine is powered by a V12 engine that looks suspiciously like the one from the BMW 7 Series V12 of the late-1980s. <\/p>\n
