    What do you expect from a car with the tag "BS"? :twisted:

    They must have used the Yugo as the design model.

    In a few years, we'll see these cars sold at WalMarts nationwide.

    I would hope that they build the BMWs to higher standards than the "B.S." 6 :roll:

    Otherwise I'll have to scratch BMW off my future-car list (and stick with Audi)

    Can't be too much worse than the crap US automakers have been pushing for years.

    Seriously though, in 10 years time the Chinese will be kicking automotive ass

    I don't believe that for a minute.

    Also, the title of the thread just reminded me of this:

    That thing is horrible. It did so bad it seemed like it was designed to do as bad as possible in the test.

    Which brings up an interesting point. The Chinese auto industry is exploding, and prices are so cheap, it seems the cars are almost subsidized.

    China has long been trying to control their population density by birth restrictions, the overuse of capital punishment and the like.

    Maybe they are purposely making the cars so bad as a way to "thin the herd"?

    but seriously, if im buying a car from Asia, its gonna be Japanese, yes they are made in America, but its gonna be from a Japanese Company........ I dont even trust the Koreans to do it either......... I mean my bros new 07 TIburon is OK, but theres plenty of little things that I totally hate about that car, some of it is just not well though out at all
