Its amazing how the chinese can copy / borrow anything on the planet. Lol theres even a rip of the Rolls Royce Phantom.
Its kinda sad for the company who designs it at first cause the spent large amounts on R&D and all the chinese co. has to do is ‘borrow’ it.

Mark: Looks isn’t everything .. I, for one, would never buy a car which is manufactured in China or even Korea.

I am wondering why they chose pontiac, I wouldn’t mind seeing a half cayenne half lexus combo.

I wonder which feature of Pontiac has it copied. Maybe one of its internal excellent performing components like its Pontiac exhaust system or engine. But the car doesn’t look that luxurius. GM can still make better one. So copying wasn’t very ideal in this matter. :/
