Those wacky Chinese!
But with China now being a bigger market than the US for new cars, some strange things are happening.
Who knew that Buick was a hugely popular brand in China? Apparently the Chinese ideogram for Buick means something like "velvet pussy" in Chinese. So I've been told.
And Porsche expects to double the number of its dealerships in China next year.
And wait till the cheap Chinese domestic brands start appearing in the US. I read somewhere that Wal-Mart will be retailing one or more Chinese brand name cars.
Fun times...
