I understood how u feel about my last message, but for those of us that cannot do without HONDA Product, can anything be done to make Brainbuss relatively low cost?
have a great day

 

[BringIt]

Why are you advertising Honda here? Honda's are good cars but what does that have anything to do with Chinese cars?

Take your Honda and shove it.

Honda's are getting too expensive anyway, not worth the money.

 

[BringIt]

Wow those "concept cars" look great!!! It's really amazing - when I first joined this forum, we see nothing but ugly cars, but the new crop, in such a short period of time, promises to look great! Amazing indeed!

If anything, I think the Chinese car companies have learned that it's not hard to design good looking cars - push the wheels to the extreme corners of the car and use the largest wheels possible (or rims to be exact, with low profile tires). You just can't go wrong from there...

 

[Rally Red Lancer GTS]

The Roewe 550 body design looks competitive, indeed. Can it pass stringent safety tests, though?

And I agree, those two Geely concepts looks nice! Wow! Progress on body designs has been steady-quick.

[erik (laofan) cmvdc]

I don't know, I really dfon't know if these drawings are serious. If so, it would be great!

 

[CCF mod]

It seems Soueast will present its first self-developed sedan at Beijing:

[mememe]

I don't know, I really dfon't know if these drawings are serious. If so, it would be great!

im thinking the same thing, dont know if the drawings are serious since most concepts are not serious
