I am not sure if i am 100% sure but...

1. If you look closer the car has a real BMW 7er interior
2. In the backround there is a X5
3. It's 100% identical to a 7er

So i think that it is one of those chinese made 7ers that the chinese government forced to have a "Made in china" logo on

But i say again i am not sure..
