Stupid Asain cars. Japanese cars already suck but imagine how crappy a chinese (notice the lack of capitals for lack of respect for the chinese) car would be. In a crash the doors would fall off, the wheels would fall off, the engine would explode and the occupants would die. The crap ching chong junk from china would be rubbish. Why would you be stupid enough to buy a chinese car. Man if I saw you driving down the road in a chinese car I would egg your car.

They’ve got to stop using jap design firms to design their cars. If you’re wondering why they all look like jap cars, that’s because they are probably all designed by the same people.

obviously none of you have been to china….land of the corporate logo knockoffs..i mean come on, do they think people will seriously think that SUV is an infiniti? knocking off clothes and shoes is one thing, knocking off cars is completely different. i doubt it will do well…

#45 what is the Chinese makers USP that will make us buy their cars?
Cost? Nope by the time the cars arrive here the prices will be the same as Korean or Japanese cars
Styling? from what I have seen it aint that great.
Heritage? Nope they aint got that either
World Class Engineering? Nope Nix on that one too
Quality? we’ll have to see but I doubt it.
The only way the Chinese can offer a USP to Americans is with the sales and after-sales package and if they come up with a brilliant one it will be copied by everyone else.
Gas Mileage? I can get great mileage with a proven Japanese Korean or European car

I’m not being racist, but apart from cost I see no reason to buy CHinese, and with costs rising really quickly in China that advantage is going to disappear. Maybe I will wait for the Indian or Malaysian sales invasion

Even the slitty eyed chinks aren’t dumb enough to copy the Caliber or G6

#39 -”Badge looks nearly exactly like an Infiniti badge from a distance…lawsuit anyone?”

Good luck enforcing any type of patent in China.

#38 -Well said….

The first and the third picture looks bad. The second picture(coupe) looks interesting. I’ve heard that the upstart Chinese carmakers go to well known IItalian design houses for consultation and design maybe GM should do the same thing.

all this means is better competition… America has to make better cars for cheaper prices… America just has to make cars that the public wants…

For those consumers looking for a reliable, inexpensive car, a used car is a good way to go… especially since most manufacturers now offer warranty on their Certified Used products. Probably the same price as a new Chery car and much more reliable.

Plus you don’t have to say “I’m driving a Chery”
“Don’t you mean a Chevy?”
“No… it’s a Chery… like on your sundae… but spelled with just one R”
“Oh…”

So basically what ur saying is GM is copying chinese cars … Chery umm isn’t that kinda close to CHEVY. Also, chinese cars suck especially the newer ones. Cadillac’s quality is so much higher and as far as pricing goes Chrysler is where it’s at so yeah i agree with all the ppl saying that we should stop importing cars from asia.

Damn, the Chinese have no shame. They’ll steal the coat of your back and sell it for 50% less than you bought it for.

jesus — Tue, 01 Aug 2006 04:43:40 +0000

ok, i agree with GMrules, i think if we want a cheap car, get a GM, no matter what, i think its better than chinese cars

those look that bad but still kinda bad

By: DCXrules

DCXrules — Tue, 01 Aug 2006 04:42:42 +0000

Ok, we all here know DCX rules, now the Caliber is a real car, the Cobalt is just another GM P.O.S. in everyway, just like all the the other Chevy’s.
