I don't know just a speculation. Hopefully they order so we can see some. But I think they use 777-300 for their non-stop flights to the UK and Cathay is very strict on their policy regarding ETOPS, so I don't think we will see a 777 flying those HK US or HK Canada routes anytime soon.

Don't they have the sport sedan race every year with those 320i? Or you mean like a super sedan's race?
Do you guys think we will see the new E90 320si in Macau this year?

Most likely for the bigger teams they will switch to the E90. As for those lesser team they will continue to use the E46.

Bunbun you have tickets to Macau? Racing that is.

There's a displacement restriction on those races, that's why they use the 320. In that class I think is anything under 2000cc so you will see Integra Type Rs or Civic Type R racing against 320 but the 320 win most of the time

BMW wins every year, it's almost boring. I remember one year Alfa Romeo made some noise but eventually their cars suck and didn't even come close to winning. I wonder why MB don't hv a team there to race their C class AMGs.

Tickets?...hehe. I wish I hv them too

Because their production C-class is not as good as the 320i, they only do well in DTM because is not based on the production cars.
