Everything about this car is disgusting. The front end speaks for itself. The wheels look like they were inspired by Pep Boys hub caps.

It's a threat to keep me up at night. The goggles, they do nothing.

The copied cars that all these chinese companies keep making crack me up.
But what gets me most is that most of the time they are nearly 100% copies....with 13" or 14" rims.
