I'd definitely buy it, then Debadge it, lower it, change the exhaust, add a body kit, rebuild the engine, add some mags, change the interior, beef up the stereo, repaint it,

ohh hang on, already done that to this one.

I would not personally support it much as I do not support Chinese products now as far as possible to avoid supporting Commu....sorry, Fasc.....sorry, part of the rebel alliance and a traitor, take them aw......

Whatever they are, I find them not worthy of my support.

Oh well, no problem then. I'm glad you are thoroughly researching these hypopathetical ideas of yours. I'd hate to see you wasting your time
