    Now Roewe's MG6 enters the crowded fray

    Of the battle of the four door coupe

    'Twas once an English Rover 75

    Until the company ceased to be alive

    Like a phoenix rising from a fire

    Now revived by MG Rover's buyer

    Despite its turbo drivetrain

    It won't give your neck any pain

    But a car looking like this

    Can you believe it is Chinese!

    It looks to me like Honda Civic and upcoming VW golf had some sort of strange one-night tryst, resulting in this... awkward but decent looking lovechild.


    Since it's an MG, can I still make fun of it for having Lucas electrics?

    I like Mike Rowe. He has a sarcastic, snarky humor that fits in well with his role on Discovery Channel's dirty jobs. He also has a great voice for TV, which makes him a shoe-in to narrate Deadliest Catch, Ice Road Truckers, and be the voice of the F150 for Ford.


    I just don't understand what Mike Rowe, other than his Ford commercials, has to do with cars. Shouldn't articles about Mike Rowe going to Europe be in Jezebel?

    Finally, a new Acura that doesn't look totally like ass. Oh, wait.


    BTW: can we please STOP using the term four-door coupe? Would you say Non-removable top convertible? How about four-wheel motorcycle?

    I dunno about the rear, but I have that problem with all new cars. And the rest of the car looks pretty damn good. I'd like to see one crash-tested - if by some miracle it's fairly safe, and visibility isn't obscenely bad, that might be a good little car.

    Good luck to them. MG will never be what it once was, but they did have a number of decent little cars going before they went to the knackers.

    I don't see why the next president wouldn't want to roll around in a vehicle made in a garage with trash and stripped autos in the corner. It sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

    Chairman Mao is rolling over in his mausoleum! This sort of luxury must only be held by the proletariat. If this were to fall into the hands of the bourgeois it would undermine all the good that came out of the Cultural Revolution.
