Mairdie. The taxis in your photo are the same red as the ones in the Q photo. But the Q taxis are red AND white. The Hong Kong ones are all the way red.

The white Hong Kong sign is almost exactly the same, with the same number of symbols/characters (5) as the Q sign. But there isn't a yellow sign under yours like there is on the Q sign.

Still. What are the odds two similar signs would be in both HK and Cupertino. I guess it's possible. Also, I may not have a good enough view of the taxis. Curious they both have the same red, neh?

Anybody else with any ideas?

'The mall at the International Finance Center is home to Apple's first-ever store in Hong Kong, having originally opened in 2011. The building is a waterfront commercial development in the city's Central District, featuring a four-story shopping center.

Apple's IFC store is famous for stretching across a roadway that runs underneath the building.

Apple opened its 28th store in China last week, with plans to have a total of 40 retail locations in the country by the middle of 2016. The company's aggressive expansions continue as China is on the verge of becoming Apple's largest market.
