LOL @ this comment posted on that video

"No no no. You guys don’t get it. This car is designed to protect the occupants of the opposing vehicle. The Chery Amulet itself, the whole car, is the crumple zone."

It would be a perfect opportunity to pull over a bikie on his Harley, so I don't know why they would turn a blind eye. Makes it easier to target members of bike gangs for something. You know the old pull the suspected murderer over for jaywalking because we have nothing else on him routine or for an example even closer to home pull a skyline over for being too low or for having wheels that are 'too big' so that they can get a look under the hood.

Rumour and speculation had led me to believe that Harley's and certain touring bikes had a factory exemption for the 90dB noise limit. Disclaimer: I could be wrong!

Gold!

Anyone got any other crash test videos ?

You may have already seen these videos but here is the crash test for the Chinese-built Brilliance BS6. These totally 'BS' cars are already on sale in Europe.

Brilliance BS6 crash test

A reviewer on the autoblog website stated that "The BS6, as currently constructed, appears to a complete piece of crap." You can read the review at http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/22/brillia...s-anything-but/.

The same review also contains a link to the crash test of a Chinese SUV and the reviewer notes, "Jiangling Motors' Landwind SUV failed the same test in even more spectacular fashion in late 2005 (listen to the ADAC guys crack up after they see the Landwind result".

Landwind SUV

As for the BS6, things don't get better on the inside. Autoexpress' review found that, 'the dashboard features mismatched fake wood trim, beige leather and a shiny silver stereo. In all, it's as though you've taken a step back in time when you sit behind the wheel, ending up somewhere in the late Eighties.' (LOL)

    • Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)
    • Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
    • I ordered it this morning, I'll disassemble it post pic's and info following delivery. 
    • Yes, the Axis, Axis S and 350S models all had a huge chrome grill. All others from factory has the Nissan emblem with thick chrome horizontal bars.
