americans will buy anything. Look at daewoo, they only made crappy cars and they sold alot in the 2 years they were in north america. I would rather buy a Chery than a Daewoo.

HYUNDAI is a perfect example...started off with the EXCEL!!! which was the cheapest and one of the worst/cheapest quality overall in US/CDN markets...and look how hyundai grew!! and finally this year they are launching luxery cars to compete with NISSAN maxima..this is big improvement

CHERY AND GEEELY will be like this...but over time

Chery and Geely won't take as long as Hyundai to grow big. If all ethnic Chinese people bought Chery and Geely instead of foreign brands Chery and Geely would already be the largest car manufacterers in the world.

LOL!!!!!! the US will think it is a conspiracy and stop letting asians in the US thinking they will boycott GM and FORD:lol:

very few asians in the US drive American cars. They drive japanese cars most, some others drive German and korean cars but very few drive american cars.

All the Chinese people are driving Japanese and German cars. You can count overseas Chinese out as potential customer base.

Many overseas Chinese are nationalistic, they'll buy a chinese car just because it's a chinese car. Just like nationalistic koreans buy korean cars just because they are korean cars. I bought a Chery because the Chery logo means Chinese pride to many Chinese people.

My mom is full chinese and immigrated from shanghai in the late 60's. When I told her about chinese cars she frowned, made a disappointed snort and said something to the effect of "I bet they are junky".

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion

Well, at least Daewoo actually spent billions on engineering its own cars. The same cannot be said of Chery pirating Daewoos.

At least Chery makes it's own engines, they didn't just copy engines from someone else.

here are pics of Chery's 3.0 liter VVT V6 engine

made
I drove a chery a11( i am not chinese ) and compared it to my Dads 1995 Toyota Corrolla .. performance / comfortable / space wise, the chery is alot better

the only thing I didnt like was the plastic looking interior

my dads 1994 corrolla had no abs no airbags and it costs x2 the cost of the chery NOW . the new 2006 corrolla costs 3x the chery a11 and doesn't come with abs not even a cd-player and not even sport rims .

Toyota corrolas waranty is 3 years - 60,000 KM here
Cherys Waranty is 4 years - 90,000 KM


!

does the Chery A11 in egypt look like this

or like this

and are there alot of them in egypt

 

[hazik]

the Ford CVH engine is 8v not 16v, although Chery are considering developing a 16v version of that engine.

A11 is available with 16v engine, originally the tritec engine (like BMW mini engine) and now they will install their new AVL designed units.

Is the AVL V6 available in any car yet. What about the V8

Or I could get a used '95 bmw m3 with 240 hp, leather seats, power everything, cd changer, 17 by 8 inch sport wheels and suspension and great looks with wicked preformance. Or a used BMW 528i. Or a host of other used luxury cars or mid-range cars by more reputable brands, many of the cars still under warruntee.

WTF are you talking about, That dude lives in Egypt, you can't buy a used 95 bmw M3 in egypt. And even if you buy one in the US the car will break down. The reason most people sell their used cars in the first place is because their cars already have hugh problems and likely will break down, you'll end up calling a tow truck before you drive your car home.
