If China were to put more effort into creating their own original image like that dragon faced car there, they might get a credibility boost.

Until then I'll have nothing to do with them.

But contrary to Harry's belief, it would be original and culture centric, which I think is nice.
It defies the mainstream with those massive nostrils.

I saw a program or read something and basically all the major Chinese manufacturers copied and made slight modifications to existent popular designs, and went so far as to use everyone's emblems titles and fascia to boost their media face and fool poeple into thinking their product is just as good when that is hardly the case.

If Chinese automakers would focus on actually using their few resources and build a strong foundation with safe reliable vehicles representative of their affinity of protecting their massive civilian army instead of an this image of being some kind of technical superpower,

then just maybe they could get some credit from the rest of the world.

i had in mind this big huge crappy dragon head with its mouth wide open..just being nothing but wind resistance..
so it wasn't anything to do with dynamics...but just a dragon's head bolted on the hood of some car pretty much./////
