Default Cheap Chinese Cars coming.

Good article on MSN. It discusses the new Chinese cars that will be coming over. Possible price: $7,000.00.

And you can hire the guys standing up front of the South California Home Depots to assemble it. The directions will be in Spanish.

I watched the crash video. "Wow!" is one of the words I said. The other one would get blanked out by the sites autosensor. A front end collision that completely pancakes the entire front seat area. A chain reaction collision on a freeway would completely pancake the entire car! But since it's only $7000, I'm surepeople would be willing to chance it. Unfortunately.

Sure they'll buy it. People buy Hyundas don't they? [sm=icon_rofl.gif]

They're going to sell these things at Wal-Mart or Homer De-pot?
