Other top performance cars include the 430 Scuderia and the GTB599 Fiorano.

All aimed squarely at China's growing ranks of affluent Chinese, in particular the younger generation like Johnson Zhang who spent about $590,000 on his 458 Italian.

Zhang owns the 999th Ferrari sold in China.

Johnson Zhang, The 999th Ferrari car owner said "Thank you Ferrari for allowing me to realise my dream as a man -- to own a 458 Italian. The figure nine has very good meaning in Chinese. It means long-lasting, perfection and sustainability".

Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa is aiming to sell 600 cars in the next two or three years.

Amedeo Felisa, Ferrari CEO said "That means to position China as the second market in the world just behind U.S."

Ferrari set up its China branch in 2004 and has witnessed the growth of the world's most populous nation into the world's biggest car market. Ferrari is one of the country's best known luxury car brands, with many like Li Wei aspiring to own one someday.

Li Wei, 29-year-old tourist said "It's too expensive but I still like it very much. For example, the limited edition art model, the 599GTB Fiorano, which costs around 11 million yuan (1.6 million USD) was bought by a Shanghai buyer. I hope one day I would be able to own a car like that."

China is set to become the world's biggest luxury market in five to seven years, according to a Boston Consulting survey conducted last year.
