Pisces69 6th Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 presentable for wat??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? who will be looking at the cataytic converter?????? ============= In China accident rate very high & many pedrestrians & cyclists r run over so these r the pple who wil b staring at the cat from below the car. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 the last thing u want in an accident is for the steering column to go towards your face....thats something which happens in MIC cars as they dont have a collapsible steering column....something which is standard in cars since like the late 80s... ============ In MIC cars, no need for collapsible steering coloum cos instead of the air-bag inflating, the steering wheel wil protect the driver from the front of the 10 ton lorry radiator grill in case of a full frontal accident. Maybe that why I see so many China pple got flat noses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 on a single day but separate occasions, i saw two chery QQ kanna towed with no visual damage on the car. ============= Engine fell out while driving??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 Made in China car I don't mind. But not China brand car. There's a difference. For e.g. I wouldn't mind a China made BMW if one day there's such a thing. ============== But u wont get a BMW engine & gearbox. Most likely they put in a Kwangtung engine & Chiang-lu gearbox. Only the bodypanels wil b BMW. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 agree. china-made stuff can only be good for like furniture, legos, shoes, clothes etc. ============== For me, not even the stuff u mentioned. All crap products. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddie 3rd Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 But look at an Apple MacBook Pro. Beautifully made computer. And it's MIC. So with the right setup, MIC can be decent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benarsenal Turbocharged June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 If quality can reach those of Japanese, definitely. Look at Korea. They've come a long way in 20-30 years. Who's to say China can't? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that why I see so many China pple got flat noses. thats not true....can u imagine having a frontal collision and the last thing u can see is the steering going towards your face and the airbag inflating? In case u dont know airbag deployments are VERY violent...enough to KILL a person..which is why seatbelts is a must hence the name "SRS" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo6089 1st Gear June 9, 2010 Share June 9, 2010 Hi, do you realize that almost everything that you buy nowadays are made in China, cloths, toys, iphone, computers/laptop, etc; All of them are made in China, just that most people still buy them because there is a foreign branded label on it. I won't be surprise if there are parts in a BMW or Merce car that is made in China too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike1234 1st Gear June 10, 2010 Share June 10, 2010 Why not? There are Toyota,Honda, Audi,etc car brands which manufactured and sold only in China. If they are willingly to export those models and it is much cheaper, why not? I wouldn't mind getting a made in china car( Toyota China, Honda China, BMW China,etc)....But definitely not Chinese car makers like Chery,etc... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
