1. A lawsuit, obviously.
2. Cayenne-(and X5)-looking things winding up, 10 years from now, in Afghanistan and Nigeria.
3. Chinese made Cayenne replacement body panels and performance parts on ebay.
4.More used SUV's available in the US, as Chinese and Indian cars compete against used export first-world produced cars for third world market share.

Like I've told Analyst, in forty or fifty years, they're going to design their own cars, and who knows, they might be...what's the word? Original.

These people have zero taste if they were to clone one of the ugliest cars ever.

We've already established that they have zero taste, in addition to questionable safety and ethical standards.

Instead, they'll just build an exact replica of the Nordschleife in China somewhere and claim the 'Ring time as authentic.

The BYD T6 is a capable off roader that can serve as an SUV when the time arises, but astounds the driver with amazing precision handling like a sports car on the road.

Sorry, it continues on to say -
With a great looking body, and perfect rigidity, it possess a sports car aura with family hauling capability, thus bringing out the best in both worlds.
The streamlined and smooth body make a full nice feeling, with amazing control and stability, with the ability to be chic on the highway, and safe in town.
Version 2 and Version 3 BYD T6 are able to give the most safety.

So if you don't want to die after hitting a cat, you should wait about a year and buy the one that earns two stars in the Euro NCAP rather than zero.

I constantly proved them wrong by keeping all of my Matchbox/Hot Wheels/Majorettes and a few Maistos. All of the knockoffs sacrificed their lives during crusher/demolition derby duty. :D

Made in France, West Germany or United Kingdom was the best - but only because I had no access to Tomicas.

They look at pictures of German vehicles and then copy them.
