That is wild, I'm amazed such a thing iswas allowed. On one hand I find it
a sad, pathetic imitation of engineering and marketing/advertising that I
wouldn't want diluting the car "gene" pool, but on the other hand, it's nice
to see developing prosperity and capitalistic economic growth in areas of
the world where often the citizens weren't always allowed to the free chance
to create and produce their own national products for their fellow citizens
and export market connections. Asia is catching up to (and some parts
excelling) the "western" ideals of freedom for unhibited market creativity
and the chance to succeed or fail based on the votes with currency from the
masses. Kudos to them for that.
