It may be a good thing. China can take all the money we send them to pay for and open up oil fields in our back yard. Build refinaries in Cuba to pollute our air.And sell it back to us for the market rate. Than well be bowing to CHINPEC for price control.

Back to the thread............ When Ford bought Jaguar back in the early 90s, one of the thing they want did to do is keep the history of Jaguar live. So they redid Browns Lane http://www.brownslane.com/ and retool it with state of art equipment. Who in their right mind will buy a Jaguar made in China?

Well I guest they an ass for every sit.

You would have a hard time with that!! It was a truly tiny car. I wish something was in the pic for perspective. If it had super dark tint I would have thought forty six clowns were in there..
