I think the first car is sharp except the spoiler.

Seriously? Despite the stupid fender gills? Goofy looking wheels? Really? Even with the pinstriping?

Not only that, but did you know that the dang Chinese do not eat turkey!!??

Try ordering turkey and brocolli at your local chinese rest.

We need to do something about that.

You know.. you're right. I've never seen turkey anywhere on a Chinese food menu. Is there a cultural thing against eating turkey? I'm seriously curious now.

Sorry to derail

Way to take things waaaaay off-topic guys To address your question: Maybe there are no Turkeys in China so they haven't been exposed to them. I thought the Turkey was a North American bird.

Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

You are right about that. Here's a quote I just found: "The common ancestor for the Broad Breasted White as well as the heritage turkey breeds that are making a comeback is the wild turkey that is native to the forests of the Americas. The Conquistadors encountering the Aztec empire found domesticated turkeys, and brought them back to Spain along with other New World foods."

I think the Chinese missed out on the turkey because turkey was not know to Marco Polo when he made the trip to China. They seem to enjoy their spaghetti (noodles) a lot, though, all thanks to Marco Polo.

To Vlad: I don't know, but it looks to me like someone took a Grand-AM and kitted it to resemble an E60.
