Seems fitting: the Dakar has become some cheap, fake hazardous copy of the original event, much like this car is a cheap, fake, more dangerous copy of several 4X4s on the market. #chinesecars
Never heard of "Rely"...but I have heard of the X5. Let's hope whomever pilots this first-gen-Highlander (in profile) lookalike is more skilled than the average driver of the BMW version. #chinesecars
Well, good for them. This will be a good outlet to prove they are not just lead lined death traps (although it would make for a macabre yet captivating sight if one crashed - a bit like NASCAR).
I can't help but be a bit critical of their effort given the glaring disregard for trademarks and the persistent usage of other brands designs... case and point is that there are big "X5" decals plastered over the car and the company logo mimics the Infinity logo.
The old saying was that Lexus product design began in Munich... Well, I guess for the Chinese companies product design begins anywhere but China. #chinesecars
@BЯдΖǐL-ЯЄРΘЯΤЄЯ - Spreading the Christmas Spirit: He doesn't, but he famously abused that dutch quote you nicely translated in perfect dutch into this: "he (this player) heard the clock tick, but doesn't know what time it is…"which makes no sense at all.
@graverobber- My Yugo Nova!: Actually, hornets sting you, you're probably already at the nest, messing with it. They are remarkably timid insects, and not well equipped or well motivated to sting vertebrates. They normally sting other insects for food, and very rarely can be coaxed to sting unless the whole colony is disturbed.

China is going to be a mayor player in the next 24 months.

Hornets-

sting you, then go back to the nest to get reinforcements, and return to sting you some more. It's what they do.
