Car and Driver reviews the Brilliance BS6.
Sorry if this is a repost.

Errr... if the Chinese can't be bothered about making any effort to make a proper car, then why on earth should I be bothered to copy and paste the entire review?

Here goes the link: First Drive: 2007 Brilliance BS6 - Previews - Car and Driver July 2007

And yet the EU wants to ban Aston Martin, Bugatti, Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche... Idiots!

 The base 2.0-liter BS6, in Comfort trim, starts at about $26,600 (€20,000).
ROFL!!! With that amount of money, you can get a decent Opel Vectra 1.8L 140hp.

The 2.4-liter Deluxe model we tested has an estimated price of $31,000. Yikes.

ROFL x 2!!!

Re: Car and Driver reviews the Brilliance BS6.
Did I read correctly? They tested it on the Autobahn? Did this thing have Chinese made tires? Because AMS tested a bunch of cheap Chinese tires and all of them blew up at 200 km/h+ after less than 3 minutes.

Guys, do you realise the car is called the Brilliance BS6, which means Brillance BullShit 6. Crap car, crap name. Avoid.

Really?! That kind of tires shouldn't be allowed to be sold even for Barbie's car.

There was an Auto Motor und Sport test of Chinese-made tire brands that were to be sold in Europe and ALL OF THEM faired PISS POOR. Poor, extremely sh*tty quality rubber, zero high-speed endurance and just plain dangerous. Let me see if I still have it at home, probably not but I'll check and will get back to you.


EDIT: Nope, don't have it anymore.
