China is one of the countries where you can expect to find anything, especially when talking about devices, including mobile phones. Anyone that fancies a Nokia N95 can just go out and buy a clone version for considerably less money than the original would require.


One thing that's harder to clone, although still possible in China, is the cloning of cars. Considering this, the Chinese decided to take a slightly different and more convenient approach to things and produce a Porsche 911 mobile phone.

Just by looking at the photos of the handset it is easy to tell that it's a Chinese manufactured product, since any of the large and renown phone companies have more reasons than to release a cell that looks like a toy car. Nevertheless, it is quite fun and funny at the same time, as well as perfect for making all your friends curious to know why on earth you'd be pretending to place a call while holding a plastic toy car next to your ear.

Quite surprisingly, it actually packs several features as well, including support for dual-band GSM, MP3 player, a 262k color screen, MicroSD card slot and even a 2 megapixel camera. The handset also features the Porsche logo right over the screen and just in case you were wondering where the camera is, it's right beneath the phone's 'windshield'.

Finally, not only does it look like a toy car and act like a phone, but it also comes with an extremely low price tag of only $164. While hearing this, most people will probably rush out the door in order to get one; unfortunately, only users in Hong Kong will be able to find it in stores.
